@shaunsonexplains: When ordering Chinese Char Siu, make sure you get half lean, half fat (boon fay sau). This way you get some meaty slices and some fatty slices, just like American brisket. Also, nowadays the red coloring in Chinese Char Siu mostly comes from red food coloring, unless it’s somewhere fancy. #charsiu #chashu #pork #chinesefood #japanesefood

OP :
It’s spelled like that because if you say it in a British accent it sounds closer to the Cantonese. Also Ramen is considered a “chinese” dish in japan

The Japanese chashu from technique to representation is a clear adaptation from 鲁菜 of the shandong region, I always wondered why they took the name from 粤菜 of the Canton region

Vietnam has Xá Xíu, which is Chinese inspired but instead of being a bbq, it is boiled with the spices and eaten in Bánh mì or as a Wan Tan noodle soup topping
