Hot, Spicy and crunchy mix of diced chicken, celery, peppers and roasted nuts...
...but get a big bottle of water, or iced tea, to cool your fiery throat and runny nose.
(By the way, I'm quite sure it rapidly cured my chest cold a few years ago).

#1 Combo at my local place. DH always gets Beef with Garlic Sauce and leaves behind half the veggies (the best part IMO!)

I’ve never been to an authentic Chinese restaurant though, so I’m sure there’s a lot of good food that I haven’t tried.

Hunan beef, moo shu pork. Most all of it Americanized Chinese food.

I’ve eaten real Chinese food in China. You don’t see stewed eels or water buffalo penis on many US menus. Sadly, you don’t see Double Happiness beer, either.

local place (called Szechuan, actually) has a dish called Ting Tung which you can have with chicken, beef or pork. It is the most veggie laden dish on the menu. Extra spicy of course.

Also Hot and Sour Soup and steamed dumplings.

I never eat Chinese restaurant buffets anymore. Szechuan is the last really good CHinese place in FW which does not have a buffet. (they do have 2 locations) Our other two have closed, and I still miss them.

Pei Wei doesn't count; they are fusion and in a category of their own.

(at least we have a number of good Thai, Vietnamese Pho, and Sushi places. I don't care for the raw fish sushi but our favorite place has a green dragon roll made with tempura asparagus, avocado, a mango dressing , rolled in rice and no stinky black seaweed either. )
