In today’s routine, it is pretty common to find an Asian cuisine restaurant or more specifically the popular Chinese food. Somethings isn’t there question of how Chinese food boom in the United States. Before food comes is the people that have that ethnicity.

aunties and uncles love to go all out on food. They make pasteles, gandule rice, flancocho, fried bananas, and many more. There is always all kinds of Puerto Rican food, but it’s not the only type of food we eat. My aunties bring their homemade chow mein and chow fun, and my uncles bring in burgers, steak, sub sandwiches and other American foods. I swear, my eyes are bigger than my stomach at parties. Food in my…
In the article “We Are What We Eat: We Are a Nation of Immigrants!” by David Rosengarten, he discusses the distinct influences and development of cuisine in the United States. Over many years, food has changed the national diet in America. Food has changed because of the immigrants coming to America in the past. Americans have adopted and adapted these different cuisines and it “has sparked a richness and diversity in the fare on America’s dinner tables and in its restaurants” (Rosengarten 216).…
The poem “Homecoming” by Donald Bruce Dawe is a clinical depiction of war written with third person narration. Though there is no specific mention of war, the poet’s use of implied knowledge and language conveys the themes of identity and death in conflict. The poem portrays the final flight of dead soldiers as they are removed from the battlefield and returned home to their loved ones. There is no rhyme within the poem, which is written as one continuous stanza created from one continuous…
with a few of my friends to drop my school bag off before going to the Michigan Union to eat at Panda Express. Panda Express is one of my favorite restaurants ever, and I always get the same thing: one medium lemonade and one bigger plate with chow mein, fried rice, and a side of kung pao chicken. The noodles and fried rice already taste delicious, but the spiciness of the chicken combined with the two entrees simply explode in my mouth. Anyways, we made our way to my dorm in South Quad, all…

I made sure that I had a bit of everything. It was…
Food, dances, beliefs, activities, social norms, holidays, and ethnicity. These are all a part of an invisible bond shared by many people in a culture. You may not even realize what yours is, because of how you are molded to the cultural norms of your society. Most people don’t even realize how drastically different each one is until they see they see another culture go entirely against their beliefs and expectations of society. Personally, I am an Asian-American who may have a completely…

different to American cuisine. Recalling images showed in lecture and discussion of the early menus, the imagery of the menu was that of “orientalism”. The menu marketed a “foreign experience” with the safety and familiarity of dishes like chop suey or chow mein.
