Guess Which Chinese Dish Is Actually the Most Popular Among Americans?!

According to the latest research from Pew Research Center, Chinese food is by far the most popular among Asian cuisines in the U.S.

As shown above, nearly 40% (39%) of all Asian restaurants in the U.S. serve Chinese food, with Japanese food (28%) and Thai food (11%) coming in second and third.

From the first Chinese restaurant that opened in San Francisco over a century ago to the present day, when Chinese restaurants can be found in nearly every community big and small, Chinese cuisine has long been an integral part of many Americans’ daily lives.

With the steady growth of Chinese international students and immigrants, demand for Chinese cuisine will continue to grow. The growing popularity of various regional Chinese dishes in recent years also indicates that American diners are demanding more diverse Chinese food options.

Chinese cuisine is rich and diverse, with each regional cuisine boasting distinctive characteristics. Given such a wide range of dishes, which ones appeal the most to American diners?

From the list, we can see that besides the classic American-Chinese dishes, several more authentic regional Chinese dishes that have grown in popularity in recent years have also made the list. I believe that in the near future, with increasingly frequent population mobility and the rising influence of Chinese communities, more authentic Chinese dishes will appear on mainstream restaurant menus.
