One thing I love about Chinese food is the variety. Hot and cold, spicy and mild, meat or vegitarian. There's something to love for any pallete. I also love the fact that you can make so many dishes with so few ingredients and quickly. Here's one I love, it is called "Liang Mien" in pinyin (literally, "cold noodles"):
bowl full of thick soup noodles (buy the Chinese brand that are sold in large flat boxes; they're about the size of linguine). Cook the noodles according to the directions, then strain and run through cold water until cooled.
Add about 1 tablespoon of Chinese BBQ sauce (sa tsa). Make sure it's the kind of BBQ sauce that's in a silver can, and not the kind for making ribs, which is completey different.
Add 1/2 tablespoon sesame paste
Add 1/2 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce.
Peel cucumber and cut into thin strips (like small french frys).
Stir it all together and chow down. Hope you enjoy!

That sounds good. What is sesame paste? Can you find it at any grocery store?
