Chinese restaurants make good use of raw materials, and apply the most advanced cooking methods to endow food with more expressive forms. Southeast Asian cuisine is greatly influenced by Chinese restaurants in the application of raw materials, but there is no lack of its own true colors. On the premise, it gives full play to the rich advantages of local products and endows dishes with unique characteristics in the application of sauces and seasonings. On the premise that the taste of Southeast Asian dishes is salty and delicious, it highlights the unique taste of unique seasonings, and most of them prefer sour and spicy taste.
