Chinese for tea

[Alf]

As it was Chinese new year yesterday, I'm gonna have me a Chinese meal for me tea (that means dinner to you non northerners)

What should I get?

[ChristmasNeeve]

Get an Indian instead

[Time to Sleigh]

Duck in plum sauce with cashew nuts, chow mein, salt and pepper chips, prawn crackers and vegetable spring rolls. I think there is a reason I'm getting fat...

[Alf]

Get an Indian insteadThat thought had entered my head, but I'm doing this deed for the Chinese and their new year celebrations.

Please don't keep tempting me with an Indian, I don't know if I have the will-power to resist.

Cream of some young guy and a bottle of Hoo flung dung

[Shaun]

all our chineses are usually shut for a week or two around this time of year </3

i usually get some variation of crispy chicken strips in a cantonese sauce (but there's only one local that does it perfectly, the others are all just BASIC sweet and sour). seaweed is a must, though.

[Alf]

My local opens at 5pm, crisis over.

[Alf]

I think I'll get a mixed starter for two, where you get, prawn toast, crispy seaweed, spring rolls and chicken skewers with satay sauce. And then a special green pepper in blackbean sauce with egg fried rice.


That'll do me

[Christmas Dynasnow]

Genuine question: can u not call it a Chinky now?

I don't think anyone has used Chinky in a negative manner unlike **** for Pakistani

Everyone in Scotland would say they are having a Chinky or say an Indian

Can you explain how?

[The Grinch]

Can you explain how?

It is an offensive slang. They hada advert out where someone used that word and the Asian girl was offended.

It's not offensive. It's. Scottish thing to put a y on names

Chinese folks have never been abused or persecuted here

We say Aussie and Kiwi too

[The Grinch]

In the United Kingdom, chinky (or chinky chonky,[1] in parts of northern England known as a chinkies, always in the plural) is an offensive slang word for a Chinese takeaway restaurant or Chinese food. However, along with 'chink', they are named among TV's most offensive words.[2] Originally, the word 'chink' refers to a narrow opening, slit or small gap, a negative analogy used to deride peoples with Epicanthic folds. In the 20th century, the word 'Chink' was a term used by many white North Americans to exclude and mock the facial appearance of Chinese migrants.

[The Grinch]

chinky


A racist term, derived by the word "chink", to describe anyone of Eastern Asian descent (i.e. Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, etc.). Not a "cool" term since it has been used against us in a negative fashion for centuries in the United States.

Its around the net.

[ChristmasNeeve]

Yes LT, Chinky is not just adding a Y onto Chinese anyway, it's a whole different word.

Do you know where the term "chink" comes from?

[Christmas Dynasnow]

Do you know where the term "chink" comes from?

In American parlance it refers to Thier epicanthic fold but it's just short for Chinese in Scotland

[Alf]

Do you know where the term "chink" comes from?Is it from the dictionary?

It's just a shortened version of 'Chinese'

Banana fritters
Omg yes they are amazing :love:

[Alf]

[Merry Mockmas]

I love a Chinese.

What did you order? And did you also order an Indian to go with your Chinese?

[Christmas Dynasnow]

I do love banana fritters

[Alf]

Well, I'm as full as a bulls bum.

And I have left overs to warm up later for a midnight feast.

[bots]

A Chinese meal from a proper high quality chinese restaurant can be delicious. The main problem I have with standard chinese fair is that the food is all really low quality and cheap cuts of meat when its just not necessary. Indian food is much higher quality

[Mitchell]

I love the chips from my local :love:

[Matthew.]

Having a chinese right now :D

[Mitchell]
