November is Chinese!

November will feature a head-to-head battle! These have proven popular, and for this one we've chosen 5 Chinese favorites so they are easily relatable. There will also be an Anything Goes category where you can make anything Chinese, traditional or take-out style.
 
10 contenders have entered the arena and there is 0 conflict after allotment of battles.
 
Here's are the battles for the Chinese TD, Nov 4-7!
 
Chicken: General Tso's Chicken -  D3monic vs. Student of Spice
Pork: Sweet & Sour Pork* - charlesquik vs. SmokenFire
Beef: Mongolian Beef - grantmichaels vs. Ozzy2001
Seafood: Shrimp Lo/Chow Mein - tctenten vs. Grass Snake
Any: One Chinese Soup, One Egg/Spring Roll, One Fried Rice - BigB vs. t0mato
*This is the battered "American" version.
This is not about fusion or luxury ingredients etc., this is about nailing the take-out classic in a head-to-head, best you can. Recipe, execution, presentation, and photography will all come into play.
 
ANYONE can enter the Anything Goes portion of the Throwdown. Even battle participants.
 
Battlers, as you know this is basically a "clone" competition for what we know as Chinese food. One would not find black truffles, but quality ingredients are of course not discouraged. The idea is knocking it outta the park with recipe, execution, presentation, and photography best you can, mimicking Chinese take-out on the plate or even in containers etc. if you wish to up presentation. If you have any questions, you can PM me or group PM me with your participant so everyone is on the same page with each battle. If you wish not to give away secrets, PM me only. :)
