    We're talking with Yang Wei, who just returned home to China after living in San Francisco<br />for one year.<br />What would you say is the biggest difference between your life in America and your life<br />in China?<br />I guess the most obvious one would be the food culture.<br />In Beijing, people eat out a lot, and people tend to be much more loud and outgoing in<br />restaurants.<br />For example, in China it is common to see people drinking and talking loudly in the<br />middle of a restaurant.<br />In America, however, people like to enjoy a quiet meal.<br />If you are too loud, the waiter might come over to your table and remind you to keep<br />it down, and they would certainly not serve you drink if you appear drunk.<br />What about the variety of food?<br />This is where America might have the advantage.<br />Although Chinese food is unbelievably varied, I would have to say that the quality of food<br />from all over the world is better in the States.<br />While there are many Africans, Europeans, and North Americans in China, there are even<br />fewer people from the Middle East, South America, and the Caribbean.<br />As a result, it is harder to find really good food from those areas.<br />But America has always been a country of immigrants.<br />So this is one area in which it just might be number one in the world.<br />Interestingly, why don't we take some questions from the audience?<br />We're talking with Yang Wei, who just returned home to China after living in San Francisco<br />for one year.<br />What would you say is the biggest difference between your life in America and your life<br />in China?<br />I guess the most obvious one would be the food culture.<br />In Beijing, people eat out a lot, and people tend to be much more loud and outgoing in<br />restaurants.<br />For example, in China it is common to see people drinking and talking loudly in the<br />middle of a restaurant.<br />In America, however, people like to enjoy a quiet meal.<br />If you are too loud, the waiter might come over to your table and remind you to keep<br />it down, and they would certainly not serve you drink if you appear drunk.<br />What about the variety of food?<br />This is where America might have the advantage.<br />Although Chinese food is unbelievably varied, I would have to say that the quality of food<br />from all over the world is better in the States.<br />While there are many Africans, Europeans, and North Americans in China, there are even fewer<br />people from the Middle East, South America, and the Caribbean.<br />As a result, it is harder to find really good food from those areas.<br />But America has always been a country of immigrants.<br />So this is one area in which it just might be number one in the world.<br />Interestingly, why don't we take some questions from the audience?
