About Chinese Takeaway

Welcome to ChineseTakeaway.com – a website dedicated to the humble Chinese takeaway!

 

On these pages you will find extensive information on the Chinese takeaway, including the history and development of Chinese food, the top Chinese takeaway dish and the yin and yang of Chinese food.

 

Did you know that the Chinese invented ice cream over 200 years ago? Chinese food has developed hugely in the intervening period and the influx of Chinese immigrants in the 19th century can be thanked for the large choice of Chinese food available today throughout the Western world. This includes many different dishes from eight regional influences in China and different takeaways specialize in one or more regions. Most of them have detailed menus which explain the origins of the food they serve and the cultural influences from which it is drawn.

 

Today, Chinese food is amongst the most popular in the world and there are more Chinese restaurants and takeaways than any other type of regional food establishments in the world.

 

The Chinese also regard the use of food as medicinal and a balanced diet means something far different to the western understanding. The Chinese concept of balancing forces in food, which they refer to as yin and yang, is considered essential to ensure a healthy body and a healthy mind.

 

So feel free to browse our pages and read all about the most popular food in the world and why it is so popular, in virtually every developed country in the world.

The best dimsum ever! - 2009-12-06 11:27:26

Review:
I chanced on this little gem a few years ago and now it has become an extension of my own home. At Phoenix Palace you are greeted with a genuine warm smile by members of staff who truly care. The restaurant is spacious and cosy and wth ample seating all round. Private parties or bookings are well catered for if booked in advance. The food is simply to die for. On offer is dimsum from mid-day and right upt o late in the afternoon. The dimsum is well prepared, tasty and fresh. Careful planning and time has gone into preparing the food and each dimsum portion retains its own characteristic and signature. You cannot go wrong with any of the food so go ahead and order anything you like and you will be pleasantly surprised. A la carte is available throughout the day but my personal preference is dimsum. Try the Vietnamese spring rolls, or prawn dumpligs. for the adventurous, chicken feet are a must. Phoenix Palace delivers locally and take away is available. If you are visiting London then Phoenix Palace is a must, go ahead and enjoy!
