Chinese cuisine is diverse, with regional variations and bold flavors. Popular dishes include sweet and sour chicken, kung pao chicken, and Peking duck. Dim sum, bite-sized dishes served in steamer baskets, are a favorite for breakfast or brunch. Noodles, rice, and dumplings feature heavily in meals, often stir-fried or served in soups. Sauces like soy, hoisin, and oyster sauce add depth, while green tea is a common beverage.
