there's a place near me called ron and chengs. it's soul food and chinese dine in / take out. general's chicken and a fried pork chop please. eggroll and mashed potatoes on the side.
for the americanized version of chinese food, i like crab rangoons, beef lo mein, steamed wonton, general tso, etc
any Lo Mein.. Sweet & Sour Pork.. General Tso's Chicken... if they have a few Thai dishes then i get Pad Thai... honestly... there isn't a chinese dish i haven't enjoyed.. whatever you do.. make sure you get crab rangoons... AMAZING!
