Indians have made Chinese cuisine there own, and it probably is the most popular foreign cuisine found across India, in all sorts of eateries - round-the-corner stalls, restaurants and fine dining at five stars. A host of Bollywood celebrities rate it as their favourite cuisine. Actor Ajay Devgn is known to frequent at Sampan, Novotel Mumbai's Chinese restaurant.
However, if there's one area where the Chinese cuisine hasn't made inroads is, it's desserts. And that's probably because the concept of desserts doesn't exist in case of Chinese cuisine. Experts say that as the cuisine offers heavy food, the Chinese prefer to pair it with tea and prefer fruits after a meal instead of sweets. However, as the discerning Indian palate loves the sweet splash, we asked some other celebs who love their Chinese what kind of desserts to do they go for after their meal.
Dipannita Sharma Atwal Though I usually don't pair my Chinese meals with a dessert, I like to end the fare with a typical Chinese fried ice cream once in a while. Otherwise I stick to a piece of chocolate or an ice cream.
Chandan Roy Sanyal I love the Chinese cuisine, but desserts isn't my thing. I might just have a chocolate eclair or my favourite Bengali sweet Kheer Kadambo.
Shibani Kashyap If ever I am having either or all of these, Kimchi Salad, Steamed Momos, Chicken Schezwan with Hakka Noodles, I like to end my fare with Fortune Cookies and Chinese Jasmine Tea. And I love Dar Saan too.
