Chinese take-out?

I really need to learn how to photograph food.  It's an art, really.  That's why they use fake food on advertisements.  I am amazed at the quality of photography on other food blogs out there.

According to "Eat this, Not that" book, beef and broccoli is the best thing for you on the chinese take-out menu.  I tried to make a recipe I found online, but I didn't have oyster sauce.  I used soy sauce instead.  While I liked this dish when we ate it, I have since bought oyster sauce, and I can tell you that soy sauce is not even close in flavor.  I'll have to try it again the right way.  I have learned the hard way yet again, to make ethic food you must have ethnic ingredients.  That is all.
