Dutch Chinese food is a bizarre mix of Cantonese and Indonesian dishes. As well, we colonized Indonesia.

There was this folk singer who loved Chinese food, so when he visited china he took the menu from his home town restaurant, which had the dishes written in Chinese.

Which is a clever thing to do, in itself, but the Chinese restaurateur in China knew almost none of those dishes
