What I wanted to read are the daily specials they post on the wall of restaurants that do not have menus.
Took me four years of watching Youtube cooking clips in Chinese before I can understand and read most of the ingredient names and the procedures.
I should just have invested in an app that reads Chinese characters and translate them for you in written and audible form but they did not have this gizmo when I travelled extensively in Taiwan and China so I just hired a guide.

My version of George Elliot’s “Nothing is so good as it seems beforehand.” is “Doing anything is never as easy as it seemed beforehand.”
I think that learning any of the Chinese languages would have been forbidding before the advent of the internet. That’s why I was riveted by Simon Winchesters bio of Joseph Needham, The Man Who Loved China. I suspect that learning to read Japanese with its three distinct systems of writing and syllabary is even harder. Korean though is systematic and fairly easy to acquire, specially once you have sampled their food.
