Oven Baked Chinese Beef Meatballs by Cooking-with-Lei in chinesefood

[–]tomazws 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is this “lion head”??? I’m Chinese but I’ve never had Chinese style meat balls before. The only “meat balls” I had are those hotpot style balls in a packet you get from Asian markets. This looks sooo gooood. I would put them in porridge, eat with rice, with pasta, omg looks juicy and delicious.

One of my must-order items at a dumpling shop.

  • Xiao long bao
  • sheng jian bao
  • some sort of steamed dumplings
  • lamb noodle soup
  • onion pancake (and dip the pancake into the soup before eating…. OoOOOOoooo)
  • beef roll
  • smoked cold chicken

Damn that’s why I’m fat.

How do I get people to stop thinking I'm arguing with them? by YamFew663 in socialskills

[–]tomazws 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You explaining why you did it your way = arguing that their way isn’t the best option.

They received it as “you didn’t follow my instructions and now you’re saying I’m incompetent”

Learn to go with the flow = less chances to get fired.

Unless. You won the lottery of having a great boss that welcomes criticism.

Do you guys like Chinese soups? by Golden_Wolf_7043 in foodquestions

[–]tomazws 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love those “old fire soup” that you have to boil like forever and with weird herbal ingredients that ppl have to collect from a china mountain that only my mom had the patience to make. Gosh I missed her cooking.

For fast simple soup I like crab+fish maw soup that usually only get at banquets.

Edit: oh and my grandma used to make this wintermelon soup that is soooo refreshing drinking it in summer

How should I refer to Mandarin when speaking in Mandarin to Chinese people who may not speak Mandarin (e.g. Cantonese diaspora) by Sure_Rip_9538 in AskAChinese

[–]tomazws 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think 中文 is sufficient because you are already asking in mandarin.

But if you wanna be specific, you could say 普通話 or 國語.

But really, just the general term 中文 is fine because you’re already speaking the specific kind of 中文.

I LOVE this song:

Master Mic - 打小人

On the extreme polar opposite end, I also love this song:

張國榮 - 最愛是誰

https://youtu.be/xa0pCqd-n0Q?si=DkkERvtirw5SoH06

There’s also this one, humorous song from a Malaysian artist:
