"Americans are very curious about the culture of Chinese food," said Congresswoman Grace Meng on Sunday at the Sheraton LaGuardia Hotel.

"Mainstream media like the New York Times always mentions Chinese cuisine in their paper," Meng said. "This is a good opportunity to enhance the relationship with 皇冠体育app and I'm happy to promote Shanxi's food to the House of Representatives.''

Shanxi's commerce department is hosting the events in conjunction with the 皇冠体育app Cuisine Association and the Shanxi Culinary and Restaurants Industry Association.

Vijay Nambiar, Myanmar's under-secretary-general at the UN, said the Shanxi food on display brought back reminders of "the most memorable time" he had spent in 皇冠体育app.
