beef & egg over rice

monstermooch

when i was upstate for my undergrad, there was a chinese takeout joint that used to do a mean beef & egg (scrambled) over rice. the egg was JUST runny enough and the beef was nice n soft. i need suggestions on where to get a good version of this.

willing to travel.

    Tomato sauce? Ground beef or slices of beef? A little more description please?
    Also, yum.

    no tomato sauce. slices of beef. pure delicious-ness, esp after some drinking. if you think of a spot, we're going there tomorrow after HH!!

    Brown sauce then? Or just beef with scrambled egg tossed around it? Hmm. I can think of a few places I've seen something that sounds like that on the menu, but I never ordered it anywhere so I couldn't say...

    That sounds like Beef & Egg with rice. Good stuff as long as they don't burn the egg.
    Unless it was omelette-like.

    High Pearl so you can see Yvo stuff herself. lol. Kidding. *avoid kicks*

    my friend says that the phonetic spelling of it is....sing ddung yuh woh fun.

    i have no way of knowing whether that's right or not.

    that looks VERY similar. i think the one we had was a little less dribbly.. this one kinda looks like egg drop soup with beef over rice, but at this point, im willing to try anything. i miss this dish so much.

    The one that dean shows is the beef-egg with rice I eat. If it's more solid, it might be an egg foo young/ omelette.

  10. monstermooch

    no no no not egg foo young. i had egg foo young thing it was it, but i was very very wrong.

    @streetmeas & @deanlo - where is that one from?

  11. StreetMeasOnsumer3008

    I would say try chinatown but go with someone who speaks native tongue like your friends so they can ask. I've eaten it where it's an omelette even though I said beef-egg with rice. The egg-drop soup type is different. I prefer the omelette. ;P

    Dean, the pic is just a generic pic?

  12. deanlo

    i googled it.

    and since i'm not cantonese i'm only going to guess that it's supposed to be like wat dan ngau yok fan (waht dahn? ngauyouk fahn`) which probably means something like wet egg beef rice.

    actually it can't mean wet because "SUP" is wet. what the heck is waaahhht? i will ask my friends tonight.

    edit: ahh it says it right there. steamed egg beef rice.
