List of food names

Hi Skritters,

You should get your hand on this list: http://www.chinasmack.com/2012/stories/official-translations-of-chinese-food-names-announced-by-beijing.html

And add it to the training database. For anyone dining out in China it would be the ultimate menu-reading-tool.

Hey MikkelJ, thank you for this tip. I am also trying to compose my own food list, which would contain the most common foods, so I can avoid the confusion (and fear:) when ordering food next time I go to China.. I will use this to add a few foods to my list.

I'll be making on for different types of foods here in Taiwan as well. Still in the process of collecting menus.

Thanks for the share!
