The 29-year-old Beijinger chef, Emmanuel Zhao is going to have degustation dinner. This is a meal in which people will have a small portion of food to test on Sept 28 and Oct 26 at Hotel G Beijing, China. The “China Daily” reports that Zhao went back to China after eight years in France where he worked in five restaurants, including three with Michelinstats. The chef believes that there is no differentiation between French and Chinese cuisine. There is only good food and bad food.  


Jack Yu’s family owns a couple of Asian restaurants in Tennessee, and they decided to open another one in the Nashville area. All the restaurants they have only focus on Chinese food. The new restaurant includes four different styles of food: cuisines of Japan, Korea, Thailand and China. 


According to Chris Briem of the University Center for Social and Urban Research at the University of Pittsburgh, five percent of population of Pittsburgh is comprised the Asian community. In the 80s, there were many Chinese restaurants, but now we are seeing the rise of Thai restaurants opening in town.
