Chinese food tries to engage the mind, not just the palate. To provoke the intellect.

I just love Chinese food. My favourite dish is number 27.

My food demons are Chinese food, sugar, butter.

As long as there's pasta and Chinese food in the world, I'm okay.

I can't stay away from Chinese food. I really love that stuff.

They say that the cuisines of different Chinese provinces arose originally to serve different kinds of constituencies. Beijing was the cuisine of officials. In Shanghai, that was the cuisine of wealthy merchants and industrialists. In Szechwan, the food of the common people. Many great Szechwan dishes originated in street stalls.
