Britain’s restaurants have suffered a mass exodus of customers during the economic downturn, as diners have turned to cheaper takeaways and the joys of eating in. And in a related twist it has been revealed that the good old Chinese meal has finally toppled the Indian curry as the nation’s favourite food to buy for a night in.
Interestingly, Chinese food (which is by far a more common tradition in the US than in England) has yet, by my calculations, to surpass Pizza or the “5 Dollar Footlong” as the cuisine of choice in a pinch (or as a late night after bar grub down), which begs the question: what are Chinese in England and Chinese in American doing differently or could it be the result of the underlying cultural difference between a Yankee and an Englishman?
