Re: Australia

We have a pretty big range of ethnic restaurants but the most popular are chinese, indian and thai. Thai is really really popular at the moment.

As for chinese food, I can't really compare it to another countries but I can tell you that a restaurant will usually have a wide variety of dishes like honey chicken, sweet and sour pork/ chicken/ beef, peking duck, mongolian lamb, fried rice, fried ice cream, prawn chips, prawn toast, dumplings, spring rolls etc.

Australia has EVERY kind of food. Particularly somewhere like Melbourne, where the food is amazing and diverse. Not really having any distinctive regional food and being a nation of mostly immigrants from around the world, particularly northern European, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and South/East/South-East Asian. Except there's now a mostly-arty push to use native "bush tucker" ingredients. I suppose Australia is developing a "fusion" cuisine from cultures around the world, particularly Asian - tends to be quite fresh and tangy. Dunno how Australian Chinese differs from other export Chinese food, except that a lot of it tends to be pretty bland if it's from your local takeaway. Thai, Indian, etc from the local takeaway tends to be ~slightly more authentic.

Australia does have some food unique to it, but they're small things like lamington cakes and having beetroot in your burger.

I'm not surprised if the Chinese food is considered weird. Like the anons above said, we like a lot of foods from around the world but tend to do our own twist on it. Quite a few places have 'aussie' burgers/pizzas/whatever that has ingredients that we tend to like.
