Was in Wisconsin visiting some friends and they took me to their favorite Chinese restaurant, and my friends asked for both menus, one just for non Asians and one for Asians, and I was surprised by this

Does your favorite Chinese restaurant or any ethnic restaurant
have two different menus? One for the people who aren't that ethnic group and one for those who are?

This is every serious Chinese restaurant in the US anon. Americans won't eat Chinese food that isn't americanized. On the coasts there are enough Asian immigrants to support legit Chinese food but fuggedaboutit in flyover.

Noticed this interview recently while I was out and about, it goes into it a little.

We kind of have this in Canada at chinese/asian places. But its all on one menu, and the non asian food is called "kids section" (hamburgers, fries, chicken nuggets, etc). Most places do have a few things like chicken balls and egg fu yung though.

Sort of. Most Chinese places won't have one, but if you live in a place with a sizeable population some of them might.

Our authentic Chinese (it's really just Cantonese) restaurant calls it the "red menu". They also serve dim sum on weekends. They are the only restaurant in the area which does this, which sucks because they don't really have to compete for this target demographic and so their menu is lacking and many of the items subpar.

I've never seen a Chinese restaurant have a "separate" menu that was printed and in English.
>>

That's changing a lot now, restaurants used to not be that way but in major cities there's usually at least a few places that will have an English authentic Chinese menu

Asian fusion? Huan Xi? If you're going to a decent Chinese restaurant in WI you're probably in Milwaukee or Madison

as far as I know there is just a single menu at the places I go in pittsburgh, but they'll ask how hot you want something on a 1 to 10 scale and if you're asian or insistent the scale is actually 1 to 20

Wellington nz here. Can confirm. The Chinese restaurants do have separate menus but it's just for language. the contents are the same.
The Chinese language specials on the wall are what you want but I won't get them without a Chinese speaker with me.

I live in Massachusetts and a couple nice places I went to had one big menu which had half written in chinese

>>8197639
some do. i know one in particular here in montreal that has it written on the walls in chinese so only those literate in chinese can order. it looks like decorative writing too. very clever.
