If you want a general rule I would look at the taste and attributes of the food. Foods that are dry, bitter or astringent will generally increase vata. Foods that are moist, sweet, and hevy will increase Kapha, while foods that are spicy, salty will increase pitta. Dairy products (which are no common in chinese food) increase kapha as do heavy meats like pork.
To relieve Vta eats foods that are sweet, sour or salty.a slightly heavier diet will relieve kapha
To releive Pitta eat foods that are sweet, bitter, or astringent but bitter is better for pitta
To relieve kapha eat foods that are light, astringent or spicy, especially spicy for kapha
