The below article mentions Chinese tourists only ever going to Chinese restaurants while in Europe, which reminded me of this anecdote from my exchange year in Thailand:
My host father, an always-on-the-go businessman, went on a business trip to Italy shortly after I arrived to stay with him.
For the trip (a week long or so), he took along packets of Thai-style instant noodles, because, as he explained to me, "It's difficult for Thai people to eat bread all the time."
And I looked on in amazement as he packed noodles into the luggage he was taking to Italy.
