"Chinese food is so delicious and diversified that it has also won favor with Mexicans," Ren Hongyu, the owner of the Chinese food restaurant named "Bei Douxing" in Mexico City said smilingly.

"Bei Douxing" is a typical household Chinese restaurant. Although inconspicuous at first glance, it is rated by Chinese and Mexican customers as one of the most authentic Chinese restaurants, witnessed by the regular tide of visitors at noon and night.

The first time he visited the restaurant, a customer named Rafael was dazzled by the enormous diversity in the supply of staple and non-staple foods there.

He said starkly that Mexican food features a dominance of meat and strong flavors, but Chinese food maintains a balance between meat and vegetables and is delicate in flavor. Thus, he predicted a good marketability for Chinese food in Mexico where obesity is a serious problem. Moreover, it is custom for Mexican families to go out and dine together on weekends. In Chinese restaurants, people sit around enjoying meals, creating an oriental family atmosphere that is very consistent with the local culture.

when i visited a few years ago most of the chinese food was really good. even in casual type places it was good. in the US it seems like you need to go to some more formal expensive type restaurant to get good chinese food. and even in some of them it's not that good.

i wonder if the chinese food in mexico is better than in america. mexican food in california is really good. there are crappy places but you can easily find good and cheap places.
