Recently we (Thomas Cook colleagues) were invited for Lunch. The owner of the “Captain Morgan” boats invited us in a Chinese Restaurant.
I am not so fond on Oriental food, but it was a good alternative for the too-much-english-influenced-food I have in the Maltese hotels.
We were served different dishes all unknown for my. But I was surprised that as well my Belgian as my British colleague knew very well what they were eating, as they had tasted the same at home. How can this be?
China has the highest population in the world, maybe therefore also the highest number of emigrants in the world. And everywhere there are Chinese Restaurants.
How can it be that they (apparently) all serve the same food.
If you go to Italy or France, you have the kitchen according the region you are in. In Belgium it is the same, and our country is even smaller. Also Kenya, a “poor” country has different meals according the region you are in. So why do Chinese restaurants all over the world serve all the same meals? I cannot believe that the Chinese kitchen is universal and from North to South, from East to West China people are preparing their food in the same way.
So I had a “Made in China” feeling, when I was eating…
