我常常点全熟，因为小孩也要吃。wǒ cháng cháng diǎn quán shú yīn wèi xiǎo hái yě yào chī
I often order it well-done because my child eats it too.
Tips for using 全熟
- English names cooking levels by food more narrowly: a steak can be well-done, but an egg is usually hard-boiled, so the same Chinese level word does not map to one English label in every order.
