Lo Mein means “tossed noodles”, while Chow Mein means “fried noodles”. Both dishes are made from Chinese egg noodles. The main difference between the two is the way that they are prepared. With Chow Mein, basically the noodles are fried first (could be slightly crispy to really crispy, depending on how you want it). Then the stir-fry (yeah, that also includes veggies) and meat/poultry can be pour over the noodles, and the whole dish may be stir-fried together. While for the Lo Mein, the parboiled (meaning partially cooked) noodles are often added towards the end of the cooking process, so that it can be cook with the other ingredients, soaked in sauce. The main star of a Lo Mein dish is the sauce. I’m guessing overall, Chow Mein has less sauce (or none at all), therefore dry (in a good way), while Lo Mein is soggy (in a good way, as well), due to the amount of sauce. Oh yeah, one more thing, so the noodles that are use to make Chow Mein are thicker than Lo Mein.

Hope this was helpful. I’m off to find some Chow Mein, I hope I will find some

This is a picture of a beef Lo Mein dish, enjoy!
