We all love Chinese Cuisine, certainly. But I’m not so
sure what the benefits of the influx of hundreds of
thousands, some say millions of Mainland Chinese,
really are. All of a sudden, they seem to be everywhere.
If it took the Korean Invasion a decade and a half to fully
assimilate into our day to day lives, it seems that our brand
new village and condo mates just popped up overnight,
bringing with them a whole new dimension to our daily
routines. I can always tell when a large enough group has
settled into a neighborhood: a new Chinese restaurant opens,
but one with no menus in Filipino or in English. I’d love to
try them, but honestly, I have no idea or comprehension of
what to order.
We should all be happy though, that many, many more
restaurants that offer the most delicious dimsum and the
most sublime seafood dishes, and the other Chinese Classics
that we love, continue to welcome us with stunning new
specialties.
