On Barry's behalf, he wants to know how you all pronounce this.

Is it (t-oh), (t-ow), (s-oh) or (s-ow)?

He's got $80 riding on this.

Thanks for your input.

Seph ... comment? ...

Thanks Wendy...
For some reason, I wasn't able to post the topic myself. (F'ing Computer)

I've call a couple of Chinese food places and gotten 2 different answers.

Thanks guys.

I say "T-ow" Altough maybe that would be more like Tao, (as in the spiritual type stuff).

$80 ?! It's just the name of some food!

But Ladi, if you pronounce it like Tao, I have been told that that is pronounced like Dow...would that be the same? I like Chow myself though

all of you have it wrong... it's chickety china, the chinese chicken. Have a drum-stick and your brain starts clickin'.

I've always said Chow. Who's army would kick who's ass in a chicken war (or would it be a cock fight)? Colonel Sanders of General Tsao?

There are two pronunciations (there are actually 2 spellings too) Chow and Tsao.. Tsao is pronounced with a soft "T" (ALMOST a ch sound, but not quite.. thus phoneticly spelled like this: T-sow (the T is barely pronounced at all almost like a sylable of it's own, and sow is treated as the stressed sylable)
Chow is pronounced as written, of course.

It's "chow" as far as I know...or at least that's how the Chinese takeout chick says it and corrects me when I say it "Sow"
