            Many chickens or many Cantonese chickens?

            I think it's called Cantonese chicken to distinguish it from Orange chicken, Sweet and Sour chicken, General Tso's (was he a KMT fascist?) chicken, etc.

            If you meant if there are many styles of Cantonese chicken, I think so. I couldn't find a picture of the type I like, so many I don't even recognize as Cantonese chicken—could just be the algorithm though. It's just that type of fried chicken (kinda like Orange chicken) with a different sauce and vegetables like water chestnuts, pea pods, carrots, etc. It's delicious but it's hard to for me to find it offered, much less done well. There was a Chinese restaurant I went to as a kid since I was a baby and they did a bomb Cantonese chicken but then they closed and I recently found one that, I think, is even better. It's really good and I recommend it.

    Chow mein—or any Chinese dish, for that matter—is as much a Christmas tradition as Die Hard

    ate at a lovely Chinese Anerixan vegetarian restaurant. The fried tofu on house fried rice was amazing!
