Dear Jerry,
Glad to learn that you had interest in Chinese food. Here I’d like to tell you something about them. There is a wide variety of food in China. For example, Shanghai food, a little bit sweet, differ from Sichuan food which is rather hot. However, every kind of Chinese food is worth try because each has rich and balance nutrition. Different Chinese restaurants usual serve different dishes. I guess the Cantonese cuisine (粤菜), it is a bit light, may suit you. I hope you can come China and experience the Chinese food culture.
