It began, as all great legends do, with a single spring roll and a dream. A brave band of flavor-warriors sets out on a perilous quest: to uncover Oregon's finest Chinese takeaway.< br/> < br/> Armed only with chopsticks and a freakishly high sodium tolerance, they’ll risk everything to claim the crown of Kung Pao glory.< br/> < br/> Here’s the plan: grab one glorious Chinese takeaway dish from your favorite spot and bring it to the feast. That’s it. No cooking, just strategic ordering. Share it like a benevolent noodle god. Eat like a dragon unleashed.< br/> < br/> How to Enter the Takeaway Wok of Fame:< br/> < br/> 📝 RSVP & Commit< br/> No “maybes,” no “we’ll sees.” This event is for people who’d fight a dragon for fried rice.< br/> < br/> 🥡 Bring a Takeaway Signature Dish< br/> Order your favorite dish (two if you're bringing a guest). You go get it. You arrive victorious, holding a sacred container of glory.< br/> < br/> 🍴 Bring Your Own Serving Utensils< br/> Otherwise, your dish gets served with the ceremonial spatula of shame. It’s sticky and haunted.< br/> < br/> 💬 Post Your Dish in the Comments Section< br/> If ten people show up with orange chicken, we’re starting a cage match. The lowest-rated dish gets exiled to the Sad Table by the bathroom.< br/> < br/> 🕰️ Need to cancel? Tell us three days ahead of time< br/> No Ghosting. If that happens, your abandoned spot will be filled by someone who brings “fusion” Jell-O salad. And we will tell them it was your idea.< br/> < br/> ⚠️ Known Side Effects:< br/> 🛏️ Waking up covered in soy sauce, unsure of what you confessed to.< br/> 🧮 Rating all life experiences as “three out of five egg rolls.”< br/> 🎤 Breaking into spontaneous Cantonese karaoke - no lyrics required.< br/> < br/> 🥠 Sign up now and take your place in the potluck prophecy. Portland’s best takeout won’t discover itself. Glory, sauce, and possible napkin fame await.< br/>
