By your definition not good. Again we see that world revolves around jmaki and his overinflated ego.jmakinen wrote: Agree completely - Chinese food in Helsinki is still not terribly good - but you can be fortunate you weren't here in 1970 when there was one BAD Chinese on Annankatu . same with pizza - Rodolfo was only pizza then - not very good (and hasn't improved!) - now we have some choice - and some are decent
Yes it is question of adjusting. Start a restaurant and try to serve "genuine" Chinese or similar. You won't last for a year.Food being not as good as it should be is not a question usually of adjusting to local tastes - it's for lack of knowledge and care and competition. Finns don't like soggy carrots and onions in a Chinese dish any more than people in Hong Kong - but they have had a limited chance to choose - fortunately matters improving the whole time. Etc etc
Oh wait! You already HAVE tried to go against Finnish preferences in past. AND FAILED! Doesn't this tell you something?
Finnish food has changed, but it has not been "revolutionized" as you appear to think. The basic preferences are strongly there, with little to no changes.
I myself might add Blair's Sudden Death to spice up my food. But nobody else I know does. For huge majority of population, some milder curry is alreay extremely hot and spicy.
Restaurants have had to scale down on their use of spices. Something your thick idiot skull apparently cannot get in.
Finns overwhelmingly do not want "original" Chinese or "real" bagels. They want Chinese and bagels which fit into their preferences. Which means for Chinese that it is scaled down to fit local taste better.
Not to mention having huge amount of their "delicacies" removed from the list. Or do you recall seeing chicken legs served anywhere?
