Hell yeah... i forgot about Dim Sum... Im going to ATL today and of course i would have to go eat that. I like Pho too Viet Pho is good!!
 
Indonesian food dishes like Bami or Nasi with a little bit of pinda sauce. 👍 Bami loempias(sp?) are fantastic, along with crab rangoons (Chinese). Also, kung pao chicken is great, as well is lo mein.
 
I love Sushi - although mercury poisoning isn't particularly fun. Teriyaki has a slightly strong soy-like taste which can be annoying. Tempura prawns are very nice - try them.

But I'll eat most things - curry of most types (although Phal? **** off!) and Chinese stuff that doesn't contain beansprouts all goes down well.

No idea what you are talking about.

I think he's referring to "Chop Suey" which is about as Chinese as Oprah Winfrey.

Lots of Indian curry dishes are in fact British - Balti is the most famous example.

indian and pakistani food for sure is very different out west but i'm not too sure about chinese. A few times, i went to restaurants in chinatown and their food tasted VERY different than from the other places.
 
I love to eat Yakisoba, sushi, and teriyaki. I love Japanese food
(nihon no tabemasu) I buy it from a teriyaki restaurant here in Seattle. Its about 6-to-8 blocks from where i live. Its called Honto Teriyaki, near a pizza place a cross from safeway (on MLK St.)
