RE: Absurdly unhealthy Asian food in America

in EXHAUSTlast year

I've been told by my more well traveled friends that the dishes are very different here than in the actual country of origin. The main difference being the portion size. I was told by a friend who regularly visits that part of the world that the food is still cooked in cheap oil but it tends to be fresh ingredients sourced locally and a significantly smaller portion. Also, and this is probably the most important part, they don't have the syrupy sauce on the dishes unless it is in a tourist area.
