Are you getting tired of your own country's food sometimes and want to try Chinese and other countries' food?
a change is as good as a holiday
in other words yes
who wants to eat the same thing day in day out
besides its good to change things up
Vicky, the difference is in most places outside of China there's no "my country's food." People regularly eat food that originated from all over the world. It's really annoying when people make ridiculous generalizations like "Americans eat hamburgers so that is American food." My family lives in a small town of around 20,000 people and in that town there is an Indian restaurant, two Thai restaurants, 3 Chinese restaurants, 2 Japanese restaurants, several pizza/pasta Italian type restaurants, a British pub, an Irish pub, a Greek restaurant, several seafood restaurants, a vegan restaurant, and a Jamaican style BBQ restaurant just to name a few. There are multiple supermarkets selling foods from all over the world. Oh yea, there are also places serving primarily hamburgers and fries or "American food" if that's what you want to call it. It's not like like in China where people categorize Chinese food versus foreign food. When I go to the Indian restaurant or buy hummus at the local supermarket, I'm not thinking about where it originated from. I'm just used to eating a diverse diet. So no, I never get tired of "my country's" cuisine because there's really no such thing.
