I'm not sure what cross-culture contact was like between ancient China and India, but that sounds damn similar to northern Indian cooking. Especially the nan bread. Is it flat, leavened bread like Indian Naan is?

Don't think so, since Xinjiang are mostly muslims whose ancestors came from the steppes of Central Asia.

Northern India was heavily influenced by steppe people in the form of the Aryan invasion and then the Moghul (a corruption of Mongol) Empires. The first Moghul Emperor was from an Afgani family line.

The correct response is, "Chinaman isn't the proper nomenclature. Asian-American please."

Isn't that Burmese. Then again Burma has a huge sex trade business so having rangoon crabs might not be a good thing.

Except UR lives in Hong Kong. He's a man who lives in China ergo he is a "Chinaman".


I admite it is a very outdated noun but it's as valid as calling someone an Englishman or a Scotsman.

Something's very wrong with the world when no one can catch a Big Lebowski reference anymore.
