No. I haven't. But how would that matter? There are chinese restaurants in Seattle that have legitimate chinese food.

Can confirm what Chula said is what I meant.

There is obviously going to be a difference bro.

Would you go for an English breakfast in France?

I don't know. If I was in the mood for an english breakfast and I was in france, I would.

So you're saying that I can't say I enjoy chinese food unless i've had legitimate chinese food? I don't see how that makes sense. That's like saying I can't say I enjoy american food if i'm not american.

I've eaten at places like that too. It's not the same. Not even close actually.

There's Chinese places that cater to western palettes and then there's Chinese places that feed the locals.

I'm a sad twat that tends to watch cooking videos a lot. From what I've seen on Youtube and people from other countries making English breakfasts, non Brits don't get English breakfasts right. It would obviously be better in the UK. I've seen Americans using hot dog sausages for the sausage . That's just wrong.

lol is it?

Chinese food will be better, or at least different, in China.

Swimming in strong sauce to mask the shit meat quality.

I hate the stereotype of Chinese restaurants using "inferior" meat. Most Chinese restaurants buy their meat from the same sources that every other restaurant in your area gets theirs from. Get over it.

And as for all of the meat dishes being soaked in strong sauces, that only goes to show one of three things; you're either getting your Chinese food from a fast food joint comparable to McDonald's, you're terrible at looking through the menu and fall back on ordering the same crap that every white person orders, or you're simply unable to stomach the most mild of spices and prefer the boring simplicity of a steak.

Regardless, Pai Mei is not amused.

Well obviously. But I shouldn't have to say I enjoy chinese food with the added context of "but not the chinese food in China". I should be able to say I enjoy chinese food since i've had chinese food. Who cares if it's not legitimately from China.

I don't think so.

Wrong on all three.
