I will confirm that ! No Mac & Cheese I know of in So. NH or Middlesex & Worcester Co. Mass I know of. Not even chop suey which is NOT
at all Chinese. When chop suey is on the menu its for the kids.

Credentials : The TV shop was in a strip mall & next door to Joyce
Chens Chinese groceries.

Got to know the family well & they were the nicest people.
Joyce had the first Chinese cooking show on WGBH #2 Boston.
Used the same set as the French Chef.
Her son Henry was educated & had a thick Harvard accent. It was
strange to hear ! Anyhows they have confirmed mac & cheese &
chop suey are NOT AT ALL Chinese ! May I recomend Helen Chens
cook book.

Great starter book for Chinese cooking at home.

PS, my last outing was to my favorite Chinese food place, Quan's Kitchen, and thank gawd I wasn't served any Mac & Cheese with my pork fried rice and chicken chow mein
