According to a recent study, Chinese food ranks as the favorite choice among young Indians.  And it’s a second favorite when families dine out.  With India’s food and beverages business growing at 9% annually, retail chains like Yo! China are capitalizing from the situation.  With 14 outlets throughout the country, they are currently the largest food chain.  Mark Pi restaurant chain plans to overtake that by opening 300 across the country.

That brings to mind my friend Cheuk Kwan, who travelled all over the world to check out Chinese restaurants.  Find his amazing documentary here.

    Time for McDonald’s to close up shop. We’re all tired of the Big Mac’s packed with cellulose and other inorganic, radioactive material. Time to introduce our Indian friends wit sum *real* , genuine, down home Chinese cooking, for real.
