big black turnout posted:I mean, no one has answered this for instance and none of these places y'all've mentioned have it from what I've seen. This is absolutely bog standard fare from the Midwest to the southeast, but it seems like it simply doesn't exist out here. The Chinese disapora is vast and the kinds of food that evolved depend heavily on what groups of immigrants moved where and when. Your attitude came off a bit as "no true American Chinese food". There's huge regional differences in American Chinese food, and even going from New York to Boston, there's pretty distinct differences. That said, you are correct that this kind of American Chinese food doesn't really exist out here, and while other people are suggesting great places for American Chinese food, it's not really going to satisfy your craving. Nea posted:god ok i have a very specific question here. in the midwest when you get sweet and sour chicken at a chinese restauraunt it's these big, deep fried meatball type things of chicken that you'd dip in the sauce, there's a nice, crunchy fried texture to them that gives way as you bite in. there's usually a bit of air in there. it's great. To answer the original question, I think the closest you are going to get in San Jose is the orange chicken at Evergreen Panda, though I believe it comes pre-sauced. The rest of the food is as close to midwest / east coast-y as you're going to get. https://www.yelp.com/biz/evergreen-panda-san-jose You're unfortunately not going to find "Chinese Spare Ribs" or fried wontons out here. There's really just not a market for it.
