I noticed Chinese restaurants have massive menus, how do they do it?

2017-11-12 21:03:13 UTC  

most of it is same stuff with minimal variations

2017-11-12 21:03:26 UTC  

bad restaurants in general have, don't you have those Indian + Italian + Turkish restaurants nearby you offering pizza, kebab, indian stuff and all variations from one kitchen?

2017-11-12 21:04:05 UTC  

^ that too

2017-11-12 21:04:26 UTC  

but for chinese its same X-chinken/pork in different sauce

2017-11-12 21:04:38 UTC  

aka saucebase and some spices

2017-11-12 21:05:19 UTC  

large list is not always measure of bad restaurant.. but its good warning sign

2017-11-12 21:05:23 UTC  

and easiest to spot

2017-11-12 21:05:29 UTC  

Makes sense. Still bothering me I can't find the name for that type of restaurant.

2017-11-12 21:06:00 UTC  

another warning sign are nationalities

2017-11-12 21:06:12 UTC  

>go into Sushi place
>all staff speak Thai

2017-11-12 21:06:31 UTC  

>go into Italian restaurant
>you hear Turkish shouts from the kitchen

2017-11-12 21:06:37 UTC  

@Sapharanth (moving knife discussion here to not trigger Tribit) if you want to buy ONE knife after your paycheck - Spyderco Endura 4 hands down.

2017-11-12 21:06:56 UTC  

@johnfrum#8811 yakitori restaurants ?

2017-11-12 21:06:57 UTC  

not necessarily though

2017-11-12 21:07:09 UTC  

turkish staffed places are usually gud

2017-11-12 21:07:16 UTC  

Don't they ship in US only?

2017-11-12 21:07:43 UTC  

@Sapharanth I got all my knives with the exception of a benchmade griptilian locally

2017-11-12 21:07:43 UTC  

I have had pretty much opposite experience but this might be because every cheap takeaway in my city is owned by Turks

2017-11-12 21:07:48 UTC  

look at your local stores

2017-11-12 21:08:39 UTC  

that or teppanyaki ?

2017-11-12 21:08:53 UTC  

teppas are the showkitchen

2017-11-12 21:08:58 UTC  

@Tervy kind of but not quite, they specialize in stirfrying

2017-11-12 21:09:11 UTC  

there the chefs slice their fingers and make greasefires on hoodvents

2017-11-12 21:09:34 UTC  

Last week the first Korean hot pot restaurant opened in Switzerland, after the last one went bankrupt in 2010

2017-11-12 21:09:42 UTC  

@Cole Well, looking at this knife, I'm not so sure. I don't like nor need the saw, with which the blade seems pretty short, and I [refer a more streamlined shape

2017-11-12 21:09:44 UTC  

@fireglow would pet

2017-11-12 21:09:45 UTC  

Big kind of clear counter like subways but with raw meat and veg you just point and they throw into a wok

2017-11-12 21:10:04 UTC  

I need one knife for EDC and one for camping/a heavy beater

2017-11-12 21:10:16 UTC  

it's this

2017-11-12 21:10:19 UTC  

literally this

2017-11-12 21:10:24 UTC  

what are your ecd knife tasks?

2017-11-12 21:10:33 UTC  

wait fuk

2017-11-12 21:10:41 UTC  

@porco going to go bankrupt too, only so much novelty in soup.

2017-11-12 21:10:44 UTC  

that's serrated version

2017-11-12 21:10:44 UTC  

I found this when googling

2017-11-12 21:10:52 UTC  

they make the plain edge of course

2017-11-12 21:11:33 UTC  

I know a great story about a minister here that made an off hand remark about chinese restaurants on his first working day
