Well, as long as they can cook,lol. If you want more authentic, then guess you have to find a china town - if that´s possible. We don´t have one in my city as far as I know. Chines and korean places have pretty much disappeared ...
I dont think i have a china town. Its pretty mixed here. I live in a small city compared to the rest of US. Theres Indian,mongolian,thai,vietnamese and DOZENS of mexican places here. Its hard for me to imagine chinese in the UK and EU but i assume its just the same. I guess you guys dont have a lot of mexican places. Its a good thing i like to cook cause if i was i the UK id probably miss mexican food.
Here's the "authentic" chicken teriyaki from a restaurant.t was good though.and here's some good tacos around the corner from me..
Here's some unagi that was good too

Don´t worry, there are mexican restaurants in Britain
But I guess not nearly as many as you have in america, lol. Instead there are indian ones. I do think that the chinese food and even korean food served in USA, UK and the rest of europe tend to vary. But yeah, a lot of foods end up being `westernized´ a lot. But then again how many people in our countries are happy to eat ducks feet or inne organs etc? Not too many I´m guessing
You gotta go there with an asian person who knows the people at the restaurant to get more authentic foods- I´m sure it helps sometimes.
Snake? Why you wanna eat snake? Probably like gator or frog legs and I don't care for either.
You got Mexican like this?

presumably there are but I don´t know where. I live in the worst part of town as far as restaurants go. A few deliery places but I´m not too sure about those.
I prefer fajitas btw
So when I do make `mexican´ I make it with one of those season mixes and just get some tortillas etc. Haven´t had any for years however. I think that snake is a great alternative food source -much better than insects imo
It´s suppose to be a little like chicken. It´s served in (some) restaurants in China btw
Only snake I wanna try is the blood that makes you trip.too many bones to make a meal.i like fajitas.made some kinda wrap I forget what but I made this.it was good.think it was chicken avocado and bacon and fried it a little.
HEY! how come you guys never post your meals! I wanna see something besides English breakfasts! No fair I post all the pics! J/k! Lolpresumably there are but I don´t know where. I live in the worst part of town as far as restaurants go. A few deliery places but I´m not too sure about those.

I love Korean food. I've been making my own kimchi for decades. Where I'm at we have a thriving Asian population and lot's of good Korean and Vietnamese restaurants. But I rarely eat out. I prefer cooking myself. I've seen too many "Dirty Dining" videos to trust some kitchen I can't see.
There are more Asian food markets around me than regular grocery stores. There's a 30,000 sq ft Asian grocery store just a couple blocks away and a dozen smaller ones within a one mile radius. About a mile down the road they're putting in an Asian wholesale store in a former Walmart location. It's going to be huge and open to the public. I can't wait.
There are also taco trucks every couple of blocks and a few food cart pods around. There's a small Hispanic market two blocks away from me as well. Regardless of all the bad stuff currently going on here people still have to eat. I feel fortunate to be surrounded by so many ethnic markets and the ability to purchase so many ingredients locally.
I like Thai food as well.
Chicken Pad Kee Mao.
Pad Thai an Korean Kimbap
You make that? let me guess, your in Cali?

I make my own dumplings from time to time. It's a little work but I know what's in them. I usually make 50 at a time and freeze what I don't eat for later.

Self taught. I've been cooking since I was a child.
Cool. Im self taught too. If i want to i can do it up right. Not a big fan of dumplings but those look great.Biggest problem for me is ingrediants and the proper cookware. I lost everything in a fire and im starting from scratch.Anyway nicely done. looks restaurant quality
