I had a Chinese girlfriend. She cooked me some “authentic” Chinese food; “not like that nonsense you get in takeaways.”

It was dreadful stodge. I much preferred the nonsense her parents cooked at their takeaway.

Guessing she was of Cantonese heritage. As are all Chinese takeaways here. North Eastern Chinese food is very different, Szechuan kind of thing. More chillies and other interesting stuff like Sichuan Pepper. Less controversial stuff like grubs. 

 

As an aside, she doesn't cook much at all, I do most. So when I say Chinese I mean my approximation of it.

Her fanny wasn't sideways so no. I may have been the victim of some kind of ruse.
