I don ’ t like it.It takes up too much time and I really hate having it clean up after the meal . I can ’ t stand doing the washing up , drying up and putting all the dishes and cutlery away .

You can ask the guests for help . My guests usually insist on doing the washing up . I just have to remind them where everything goes .

Do you find it hard to get ingredients for Chinese food ?
neutral
user
Not at all.You can find most of them in supermarkets.The ingredients are usually the same as in Western food.The way that the food is prepared is the big difference , not the ingredients .
