It may not be a typical Chinese dish, but it certainly is one of the favorite meals in our foreign faculty dining hall for a lot of my colleagues: Chicken Parmesan. It’s one of the few times a week that our cafeteria is packed as everyone tries to get their share of Chicken Parmesan. I myself don’t care as much about the chicken, but I definitely go for the cheese that comes with it (though sometimes when I come to lunch too late the cheese might be gone already, as lots of people scrape it off the top of the chicken in an attempt to get as much of it as possible). Yes, cheese has become a treasured affair here, since it’s not part of any of the local cuisine and therefore isn’t readily available in the stores. It’s hard to come by and expensive when you purchase it, so yes – Chicken Parmesan Day is definitely “in” around here!
