Hi /ck/,
New to cooking here.
I want to try and make some delicious chinese food! Don't crucify me, but I mean the western style. I.e. Honey chicken, honey soy chicken, mongolian beef, cantonese beef, etc.
All the take-away "classics".
Please help! :)

This guy cooks American-Chinese takeout food, not always the best recipe but good enough to start.

Also Happywok on YT has a few takeaway style recipes

OP is new to cooking.
When you were new to cooking, I'm sure you weren't going to Asian markets...unless of course you are Asian.
Your post is epitome of pretentious.

You can buy mirin in Walmart...
This is you:

mirin is better than hoisin sauce flavor wise for stir-fry, every chinese place around here uses mirin.

Even if they use Mirin, what they're replacing with it is Shaoxing wine or Sherry not Hoisin sauce.
/ck/ please
