Do you like fish? Order a Chinese-style steamed fish. It's my favourite dish, but I know that fish isn't for everyone.
Any braised dish would be good also... something like a braised pot of lamb? The pot usually comes with the meat, carrots, and potatoes. If lamb isn't your thing, you can also get braised beef brisket, or even chicken. Garlic steamed prawns are also good... it comes with a simple soya-sauce dipping sauce.
Vegetables are one of my favourites, and just a simple garlic stir-fried vegetable is very tasty to me. Watercress is good (but is not usually stir-fried)... Baby Bok Choy, Chinese Spinach, or Chinese lettuce ("Gai Lan") are all the usual vegetables which are stir-fried.
Another dish which I like alot is Eggplant with Fish. The eggplant is sliced into pieces, and each piece is sliced in the middle, and stuffed with a fish paste.
Make sure you order steamed rice, rather than fried rice.

True Takeout is a Fakeout.
Ordering Congee is always a good nongreaser dish.
Your description of food made me hungry and want to leave Saskatoon earlier to go home to Calgary for my mom's food . I can't even find watercrest here.
