[quote=DREAMCATCHER,230605]I wonder how chinese are Chinese Restaurants outside China. These restaurants serve some imitation chinese dishes and claimed to be serving chinese cuisines. Beijing duck in Hong Kong & Singapore looks very much like an ordinary roasted duck. Just name it Beijing Duck and you have a winner here. I believe that for commercial reasons, the recipes have to be modified to suit local tastes. Thus, the name chinese cuisine becomes a misnomer. But then, it is good for business. The name Chinese Cuisines carry a lot of weight. It is a sure-win situation for the restaurants. [/quote]
