I've never been to a real Chinese restaurant owned by Chinese. I've only been to Korean/Chinese restaurants owned by Koreans. Is the food and dishes similar or are they really different from each other? I know that jjajjanmyun is Korean, but other than that, I don't know.
Which do you like better?

[octoberbaby]

No, I think jajangmyun is actually Chinese. But the Korean version one is slightly different.

[VindictusDame]

i've never been to a korean restaurant but i've been to chinese restaurant for all my life. chinese food is goood, so delicious.

[ChromeHearts]

i asked my mom what jjajjanmyun was and she didn't know

Did you say it the korean way? or the chinese way( ja cheurng mein)? Anyways , jajangmyun is an old dish . It was first created by Chinese but Korean pretty much made it better .

Anyways to answer the OP. Ive only been to Chinese restaurants owned by Chinese. All the Korean restaurants ive been to are basically mixes of Korean/Japanese dishes owned by Koreans

[NJSK.]

They have different tastes ... Korean-Chinese is mainly Jjajangmyun, kkanpoonggee, tangsooyook etc. - Chinese foods that were adopted and altered by Korean people, so these are mainly seen as 'Korean' foods now.
Chinese-Chinese has the authentic Chinese food (: I loooove Chinese food hehe ^^*


muchlove!

Jajangmyun, kanpoongee, tangsooyook... <3

jajangmyun is korean. chinese don't have it (only variation of it). well... i think they are equally good. But make sure you go to a real chinese restaurant? Not those crappy shacks in downtown that MSG everything (and some of those are owned by chinese...but i've no idea why they cook it so diff.), not mandarin buffet, like a respectable one that chinese people go to. Those are pretty good (peking duck, etc.)

[kimchibabygurl]

i'm sure jjajangmyun is a chinese dish to start with...

[vip_gd]

I find the rice cakes very similar
except the korean version is more spicier

[farmerdork]

yeah...i think jjajangmyun was a chinese dish in the beginning. It's da jang mein in mandarin. im pretty sure >.<

[kfreak]

i like chinese food...
i never been to korean restaurant before so i donno..
but i think i love chinese food and korean..

[whohungjen?]

they have a lot of the same dishes, but prepared differently
even in china itself, different regions prepare dishes differently
thats what i love about oriental food. we can be satisfied eating one dish, prepared bajillions of ways.
and jjajjyungmyun is just called ja(zha) jiang mian in mandarin.

[schokolade]

짜장면 is originally from China but Koreans adopted and altered it. personally, i like korean-chinese food better than chinese-chinese food.

[honolulu]

nvr been to a korean-chinese restaurant so i like chinese-chinese better =]
and yea. jja jiang myun (sp?) watever is DEFINITELY chinese to begin with. zha jiang mian (fried sauce noodles) or something like that. ==;; just koreans made it their own~ so after all these people said its def. chinese originally. if another person comes up and says its korean again.. thats plain dumb =O=;;

[chungmah.]

I love my Chinese food (: I've never been to a Korean restaurant though, so I guess I'll stick with Chinese.

[sugarplum892]

i lik both! lol been to rest. of both kinds and they are good ><

[Rainie]

I like both, but Chinese food does have a lot of varieties though. <3 And jjajangmyun is called Zha Jiang Mian in Mandarine...it was originally Chinese...but they just altered it.

No, Jajangmyeon is Korean. Be happy no one is denying where it originated from. Jajangmyeon's taste was created by Koreans and its pretty self fish of you to give the credit to China just for creating the original. It's like saying the McDonald's "Asian" salad is actually a salad from Asia. Jajangmyeon is a Chinese themed Korean dish.

I don't know how Chinese foods really tastes like since I never went there but all the American Chinese restraunts I've been to have like 90% MSG in all foods. It makes me feel sick after, even if it was delicious.

[K.x.R.Love]

=O Chinese food tastes different from korean food to me ahaha
I've been to a Korean resturaunt! It was DELICIOUS! =)
Even though i'm CHinese i Love Korean food cause.... Its Yummy
Depends on what food u like but both types r good =)
I just prefer Korean =)

[kimchi hana]

I don't really eat authentic Chinese dishes. But I love the Chinese.
Without them, Korean food would be nothing. *O* -over exaggerates-
