Global flavors meet festive cheer at Spring Festival fair in Shanghai

Luciano Tanto Clement, the consul general of Argentina in Shanghai, spoke about the connection between Argentinian and Chinese cuisine.

"Argentine and Chinese cuisine share a common understanding of food and gastronomy as a social experience," he said, adding that both cultures view food as a point of gathering for family and friends. He further noted the rising popularity of Chinese cuisine in Argentina, with The Gourmet of Shanghai, a restaurant run by the son of Chinese migrants, becoming a local favorite.
