Hungry? You Can Count On Chinese Anywhere in the World
When I travel I love to feast on the local eats and munch on their delecacies. It's a great experience to try different ethnic foods and learn about the culture. But I have to admit though that sometimes I do resort back to what I'm used to.
Yes, sometimes after being away for a longer period of time, I will grab a burger from a German Mc Donald's or a slice of pizza from a Spanish Pizza Hut. There is also another type of food I can find anywhere! That, my friends, is chinese food.
I've had chinese food in Austria, France, Spain, Ecuador, you name it. It's amazing how Chinese people have managed to spread out throughout the world and become entrepreneurs and open these restaurants. They speak the language of the country they're in quite fluently too.
So remember, if you miss home... go eat chinese food because mostly likely, the country you're visiting has chinese food too.
Do you like chinese food? In which countries have you eaten chinese food?

- About Me: Age: 27, Location: New York, NY Favorite places I've visited: Trick question! I've been to so many amazing places, but if I absolutely had to pick, I'd settle on a couple places to shorten the list. Madrid, Spain because that's where I did my study abroad program when I was 18 and it was there that the travel bug bit me so hard it left a scar. I haven't been the same since. And Vietnam. That's where my family is from. Although, I'm Vietnamese American, I never actually visited Vietnam until I was 26. It was an awesome experience to learn about my family's history and I was quite pleased to show off my vietnamese language skills to the locals. It's quite a big deal for an american-born.

I am Chinese... so I love Chinese food for sure...
As a Chinese Canadian, Chinese food is comfort food for me. You are right that our cuisine can be found in every nook and corner of the world except maybe the pole regions. Economic and political demands had force many of our forefathers to seek a living in many parts of the world. Food is a universal language that can be understood by all as is music. Play on!
I've eaten Chinese food in Hong Kong before...haha.
i am vietnamese and i love chinese foods. but dont be mistaken between chinese foods and other asian foods though. for instance, fortune cookies... or broccoli bowl.
im chinese myself, so i gotta love chinese food. there are many different types of chinese food from different regions in china, every region has different famous dishes, ie peking duck from beijing, and steamed pork dumpling from shanghai :)
Chinese food always hits the spot when you're super hungry!
I LOVE Chinese food and I've only eaten it here in America

Talk about competition
I've had Chinese food in locations all over China. Overseas Chinese food usually can't compare. But it's still a good reminder =) The Chinese really take cuisine seriously
Lmao, It's funny how often I get so sick of chinese food. But then after a while, I feel so grateful for my mom for cooking it again. (:
So yeah.. Chinese food ftw
@black_lie@xanga - mhm :)
Chinese food is okay. /shrug
Chinese Food is.. okay. Being Chinese myself and eating it everyday, it can be very.. boring? Sometimes LOL
Had Chinese food at "China Haus" in Bremen, Germany, June 23, 2008.
I love mainland China food. I went to Hong Kong about 2 years ago and almost every place that I went to gave us a glass of tea. I saw people putting their utensils in their glass of tea. I had no idea what they were doing,but I drank my tea. I just thought instead of giving people water, they give tea. Til this day I'm still not sure what the glass of tea is used for. Somebody please help!
Chinese food is very good! I like it so much!
I love Chinese food because they have so much variety in their cooking. They are also more adventurous in their method of cooking and presentation. You can get anything from a hawker stall style to food fit for a Chinese Emperor.
I luvvvvvvv Chinese food!
its everywhere true but i wont say chinese food is the best. once in a while its okay!
Never take away my Chinese food...haha...Chinese food in Hong Kong is the highlight of it all for me...other countries just don't compare.
I do love Chinese food, But I do realize all the Chinese food i tried outside of China does not taste Chinese. The food in Hong Kong and Beijing has got a total different taste. I love hong Kong food, and the spicy Sichuan food ( don't know if i wrote that correct ;) . Best thing of Chinese food its healthy and tastyyyy!!
@chPanda@xanga -
I think its used to drink it ( I did drink it anyways) . But because Hong Kong people are really about their hygiene, they will wash their utensils in the free tea. The teas doesn't taste as good at the tea they have at home ;
hell yea!
