Sushi is about the only cold leftover I like (and I'm pretty cautious about that- nothing with shashimi), but I reheat everything else, including pizza.

Not true ! We have a "pizza stone". It's round & flat & you stick it in the oven & heat it up. If done correctly, the pizza comes out crispy & good as new. Don't know if it works for chinese food though.

but, you're missing the point.

The pizza HAS to be cold, toughened up a bit, chewy and washed down with a beer to achieve optimum "day-old" effect.

If I wanted a fresh pizza again, I'll order a fresh pizza again!

I think it depends on the quality of the cold food. Sis orders little Ceasars, with is ok hot. But cold tastes like stale cheese and tough cardboard. And the chinese food we have tried doesn't seem much better.

I like cold chow mein or fried rice over cold pizza, but I don't like the gooey sweet and sour or cashew chicken cold at all. And general tsoa's cold or hot.
