Chinese students explained the differences between Chinese food in Japan and cooking in China itself, saying things like "Tenshinhan (a Japanese-Chinese dish) doesn't exist in China — I ate it for the first time in Japan" and "Japanese mapo tofu doesn't have Sichuan pepper, so I thought it had no taste."
