Chips or rice

The eternal Chinese takeaway dilemma.

I like the way rice soaks up the spare sauce but there isn't quite enough rice if you want to share with some one else.

Chinese chips are the best kind of chips. Chunky but crispy at the same time. But Chinese chips couldn't even hope to soak the sauce up as well as rice.

Then, it depends on the main dish you're putting with the rice or chips as to which one you pick. For example, egg foo yung is best with chips - the classic egg and chip combo. But chop suey is best with rice.

Which do you favour with your Chinese? Due to the fact that Rob and I were sharing the rice/chips we chose to have both.
