Number 34 with a side 22


The perfect chinese meal!

When ordering a chinese takeout the following needs to be considered.
- What will be happening the next day food wise i.e will you be able to eat loads and the next day deal with it.
- Who will be attending the meal with you! You need to be in the right company for example, Mates, and immediate family are fine! however, can you gorge yourself silly when trying to impress your latest date!.
-When ordering dont rush in and just order what YOU want...think what the group might want to share. Ribs are great to bring the group of people together, as are springrolls especially if you have some "vegetarians" with you, lets be honest you arent going to want to try their main dish so by having spring rolls this can become a dish that you both share! (also vegetables are good for you!)
- What will be happening after the meal!..if their are plans to go out drinking, do any form of sport or genrally anything that envolves moving more than 5meteres from the dinner table or the couch where you have eaton dont even bother ordering the food! have a salad and be done with it!.
- The perfect after chinese meal activity should be watching a DVD or in a utopian society going for a nap (but this can often be seen as socially unacceptable)
- Finally, perhaps most important and any TRUE brit will agree with me...DONT use chopsticks, you carnt get enough in your mouth at once! use a spoon and falk. If you use chopsticks you might aswell have a salad and be done with it!

These rules should be followed to enjoy a comfortable chinese meal!
BEVERAGES - Perhaps bottled water or maybe some china tea, however a cold coke with some lemon will more than do the trick to quence your thirst!

PLEASE ENJOY!
