its just Ethiopian food (which is good), Caribbean food is the best in the world, and black southern food is pure happiness. we need to send an envoy the the chinese people lol. its still nice they like the Ethiopian food they say its fun and chaotic like the weekend. ill take it!
The American music artist and actor "The Weekend" is of Ethiopian descent. He grew up in North America but the major metropolitan cities in the US and Canada have large Ethiopian communities. Since North American music and entertainment reaches international audiences, I assume some of the Chinese public is aware of him and if they spent any time working in Ethiopia or the US they probably consumed some of his work.
Fun fact, we celebrate New Year on September 11th each year.
