One of the most vast and amazing cuisines in the world is Chinese cuisine. Many people confuse Chinese cuisine with Japanese cuisine, so they mistakenly think that sushi is also a national dish in China. However, this typical delicacy is not so popular with the Chinese.
This nation prefers more nourishing and varied food. For example, the Chinese are no strangers to making pies and buns
, creating pastries with fillings not typical for Europeans. You can often see pies with seaweed or canned beans in stores.
