Great job. Pretty much look identical.

Thanks Terry, yeah can't go wrong with either one. Will you be cooking more of these type dishes in the future? I definitely will..

 

[grantmichaels]

Wow. Great lo mein once more ...
 
I'll have to flip back and forth between those two tabs a zillion times ...
 
I guess I should cook something beyond the wok itself ...

Yes. I made it without shrimp and heat for the family yesterday.

Our sauces are a little different looking at the recipes, but look identical.

I may need to go to store and grab some more scallions
 

 
No "chinese" chilies but I do got some smoked and dried mixed ones that should do just fine.
 

 

 

[grantmichaels]

Nice, D3 ...

Wrappin' up work now!

Meanwhile ...

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Ohhh nice lo mein GS, looks like the shrimp took on a lot of the flavor from the wok, by the color. Nice!

All very incorporated looking.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

I'll have to flip too but so far I think TC went for quicker/fresher cook and GS for more marinated flavors of veg/noodle/protein with a slightly longer cook, both good!

 

[D3monic]

I like the serving in a foil pan, very take out.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

This TD is great! Loving it so far.

 

[D3monic]

I got twice the chicken I need for this. Debating on frying it all tonight and using half for hot wings or something.

Wife wanted eggrolls and those buffet sugar donuts but I only had $10 for this TD.

I may have time tonight to make the donuts pretty sure I got all the ingredients

 

[grantmichaels]

                Fuck yeah, donuts!
 
... and Frank's Red Hot for the rest of the chicken.
 

 

[The Hot Pepper]

I guess I better re-read the rules line by line ... since I almost forgot PoL! ...
 
The first 4 are Chinese-American favorites, and #5 is traditional or take-out style. The non-traditionally spicy will be spiced.)
 
Got it. Mine's not even take-out, like I thought ...
 
Challengers: This is about cloning favorites, which means you need to list all cooking steps and exact recipes so the voters can visualize your flavors and be able to clone as well.
 
<expletive>
 
Everyone has a 10 pic max.
 
Ooh la la ....
 
PoL: $.65 or a fortune from a fortune cookie.
 
Haha ... I'd missed the fortune option the 1st time I read it ...
