The yin - yung rule of ordering Chinese food :
One salty, one sweet. One bland, one hot. One deep fried, one stir fried or steamed. One stewed, one pickled.

You need contrast - in seasoning and cooking techniques and food types.
Rice is the base of the meal, eat three to four mouthful of unseasoned rice for every one of highly seasoned topping.

Chinese food by its history and design is naturally healthful and slimming.
