Daft question about Chinese takeaway!!

[Chickadee]

I am going to have Chinese tomorrow as a lovely treat, but, I can't remember which of the following is noodles and which is bean sprouts (stupid woman!! lol). Chow mein and chop suey.

Can anyone let me know please.

Thank you.

Chow mein is the noodles and chop suey is the bean sprouts!
Enjoy!

Neither are really Chines but American-Chinese. MeiN is the Noodles, Suey is the RiCe

Thanks funnygirl, I couldn't remember for the life of me and I don't particularly like bean sprouts so ordering the wrong one would be disappointing.

Just to confuse matters, my local takeaway includes bean sprouts in their chow meins.

I think most Chinese Chow Meins do have bean sprouts in them. yummy yummy

Better stick to the rice dish, eh, Chickade :0)
