Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

I've been thinking about coming here for a year or more and just kept passing by because the wife was wary of the look of the place. Well, she's out of town so I took the plunge! Was NOT disappointed!! The food was seasoned perfectly and very tasty. It was served family style and gave me a slight reminder of the best Chinese I've ever had back in my Homeland - yelp.com/biz/al-palace-c… . I very much recommend this place and I will definitely be back!

Great lunch specials at this little hole in the wall! Lots to choose from on their lunch menu. $6.75 for General Tso's Chicken, Fried Rice, and an Eggroll. Not bad. The food was good and our server was super attentive. Our food arrived in lightning speed and in generous portions. Don't judge a book by it's cover. There is plenty of intimate seating in the back. We will definitely be back to try their dinner menu sometime soon.

I had been searching for a quality, non-chain Chinese restaurant in Knoxville and finally found it at Plum Tree. The words "hole in the wall" aren't usually a compliment, but this place is quirky, clean, and exactly what I want from a Chinese restaurant. Plus the food (esp the crab ragoon!) is excellent and the wait staff is friendly.

I have been coming here since I was a child and the food definitely improved. Christine and co. Make amazing food. Favorites: the egg drop and hot and about are amazing. Get the egg drop when you have a cold and you will instantly be healed. They make everything by scratch including the egg rolls and crab rangoons. For lunch get the basil chicken or general tsos For dinner get some noodles. The best mee goreng In town. Pad thai is great too On Sundays get Pho. It's enough for four people. Please give this place a try!

Location is old and and pretty ugly, but the staff is always nice and understands English very well. The food is a great value and always pretty tasty. I definitely recommend to anyone looking for some cheap, yummy Chinese food. Go between 11:00am and 3:30pm for an extensive and cheap lunch menu!

This place is definitely a Knoxville hidden gem! It doesn't look like much from the outside, but it will pleasantly surprise you! It's some of be best Chinese food I've gotten in Knoxville (been here over four years), and the service is superb!

Came here for lunch after church. I got the Szechuan Chicken and egg drop soup. Both were very yummy. My husband got the Sweet Basil Pork and wonton soup. The Basil Pork was very yummy. The wonton soup was yummy too, but I liked the egg drop soup better. My daughter got the Black Mushroom Beef. The overall dish was good, but none of my family liked the mushrooms (I thought they were good, but the rest of the family didn't like them.) My youngest daughter for the Shrimp in Lobster Sauce. I thought it sounded like it was going to be really yummy, but we didn't care for it much. After the shrimp got eaten, the rest of the dish wasn't good. Overall, it was a good restaurant. I'd go back.

The only place we go to for Chinese cuisine. The food is always fresh and hot. The egg rolls are stuffed to the brim with flavorful veggies. I am not a fan of eating in to be honest, it is very very quiet in there but don't pass it up for takeout! The pad Thai is better than Stir Fry Cafe and enough for 2 to share. I also love their pot stickers. The dough is so soft and tender and the pork is perfectly seasoned. My husband usually gets the beef and broccoli, which is pleasingly more beef than broccoli. The staff is always friendly on the phone and at pick up. A great place!

Sunday ... that is the day to go to Plum Tree. A married couple from Laos bought this restaurant a little over a year ago and have given it much more flavor than in the past. The Pho, which is a Vietnamese noodle soup, is prepared with noodles, herbs (such as cilantro and basil), and served with beef broth and is a great choice. The Pho is typically an entree style soup, so be careful not to over order. The sweet basil shrimp and the schezuan chicken are other good choices for entrees here. However, note to self that the schezuan is not visually stimulating, but tastes quite good. They also have sweet tea, which is very refreshing! The only thing that I would not order is green curry. The sauce they had for green curry looked more like a watered down pea soup, rather than the creamy green curry it should be. Definitely go visit Plum Tree it is inexpensive and good!

I have been coming here for years, and I must say they have the best Egg Drop Soup, period. I love the laid back atmosphere of the place. The fishy in the entry way is always a pleasure to play with while waiting for seating or for pick up. My favorite dishes are the Egg Drop soup, crab rangoon, Buddhist Delight, and Pad Thai w/ tofu. My husband is a fan of the eight treasure, Thai curry chicken, and curry noodles. The price is fantastic for the amount and quality of the food. Good people, good food.

I ordered takeout general tso's chicken and an egg roll. It seemed a little expensive at $10.50. The egg roll was very good but a little smaller than I'm used to. The general tso's was pretty good. I liked that it didn't seem to be as fried in such a heavy coating as at many other places. However, the sauce also seemed a little blander and thinner than at other places. The rice is brown rice though which I prefer so that was nice. The fortune cookie also had a hint of vanilla and wasn't as bland as typical fortune cookies.
