Wonton: Small dumplings in a thin square wrapper, loosely gathered rather than pleated. Served in clear broth (wonton soup, often with egg noodles), deep-fried as an appetizer, or tossed in chili oil as a Sichuan cold plate, "red oil wontons" or hong you chao shou. On this menu as: Szechuan Wontons (8).
General Tso's chicken: Battered, deep-fried chicken chunks glazed in a sweet, tangy, mildly hot sauce with dried chilies and broccoli on the side. Created by Hunanese chefs in Taiwan and New York in the 1970s; the general it is named for never tasted it. On this menu as: General Tso's Chicken.
Egg roll: A fried cylinder of cabbage, pork or shrimp in a thick, blistered wheat wrapper: the American egg roll. Spring rolls are the slimmer Cantonese original with a thin, smooth, shatteringly crisp skin; fresh (unfried) spring rolls are Vietnamese, not Chinese. On this menu as: Egg Rolls (2).
Szechuan-style (American menus): The older Wade-Giles spelling of Sichuan. On American-Chinese menus "Szechuan beef" or "Szechuan chicken" signals a spicy garlic-chili sauce with vegetables; on a Sichuan restaurant's menu the same word means the real thing, so expect Sichuan peppercorn and real heat. On this menu as: Szechuan Wontons (8).
