My Days as a Monk in Tokyo

I just have a question, is it necessary to separate Chinese cuisine and Chinese cuisine so carefully? In the novel, it is said that Chinese cuisine is a cuisine that has been modified by the Japanese, but that is also to change the cuisine to suit their tastes. It's like every region has the same kind of food, but the ingredients, taste, and texture are different in each region. They are all the same cuisine. To put it simply, a certain kind of food cooked by your family will definitely taste different from food cooked by other families. Each family has its own recipe, unless it is a dish that is made exactly according to the recipe, but Chinese cuisine does not have this problem. Western cuisine is about integrating each ingredient into the food in the most perfect form, which is why you need to follow the recipe to complete the dish. (When I see these, there must be trolls and the like out there talking about right and wrong, so I won't care)
