If they do salt and pepper chicken/beef they should be capable of making a chip version! Just go ahead and ask when you call/go inPlease can someone help me, I’m eager to try these salt and pepper chilli chips I keep hearing about lol, but the Chinese we go to don’t seem to do them
If they do a spice bag, or if they have salt n pepper chilli crispy or shredded chicken anywhere in their menu, they’ll know what you’re talking about. Be brave, you won’t regret itPlease can someone help me, I’m eager to try these salt and pepper chilli chips I keep hearing about lol, but the Chinese we go to don’t seem to do them
Thanks everyone! I know it sounds really silly but I get anxious talking on the phone haha let alone asking for things not on the menu 
Totally get that, I have anxiety of speaking in public (even if it’s just telling a story to a group of my friendsThanks everyone! I know it sounds really silly but I get anxious talking on the phone haha let alone asking for things not on the menu
) but im fine on the phone, what’s your Chinese, if they’re in Ireland I’ll ring for you and ask 
[whispers] I prefer Japanese - prawn gyoza, chicken teriyaki, vegetable and prawn tempura, etc.
But, as we have a sizeable Cantonese population in town, there is definitely a place for a takeaway in our meals.
Crispy Prawn Balls. Same principle as the chicken or pork ones, just much, much nicer.
Kung Po chicken.
Salt & Pepper Squid.
Pak Choi & Beef in Oyster Sauce.
Mussels in black bean sauce.
And, of course, what few people mention - when we're a bit skint - chips and curry sauce.

Before my kids decided we all had to go vegetarian we used to have:
Salt and pepper squid
Sweet and sour chicken balls
Chicken and cashew nuts
Beef in black bean sauce
Singapore noodles
Egg fried rice.
Now I order bitter tears of regret at discussing animal welfare issues with my children in front of the dog

Yangzhou fried rice. Pak choi, bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, mushrooms. I tend to go more for vegetables in chinese food but I'm also keen on the crispy shredded beef. I once had the best dish ever in a Szechuan Muslim style chinese restaurant, it was bbq lamb but covered in the local chilli spices. Quite fiery and dry meat but it was so tasty - I've never found it in the UK.
I'm also addicted to Bakkwa (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bakkwa) but I can never get it here either.

Ours has stopped giving free prawn crackers and now you get free mini spring rolls. Bring back the prawn crackers!
I know a Chinese takeaway is not authentic at all but I love sweet and sour chicken hong kong style. Char siu fried rice (which is weird as I hate pork and don’t eat it usually) and satay chicken skewers but only if ifs the really thin chicken strips and not chunks of chicken.
Would love that now but have horrendous toothache so living on co codamol and water as anything that makes me close my mouth hurts like hell.
