Red Egg: Great Dim Sum Without The Carts
just as an FYI, black olive sauce is not an "east/west" fusion thing. fermented olives are used a lot in chinese cooking particularly in sichuan cooking. my grandmother used to make the "dry sauteed" string beans with minced pork and black olives. there are other applications as well.

i think as the world gets smaller we will be seeing more and more fusion. i personally love all the melding of flavors as long as its for the sake of flavor rather than the sake of fusion!
