Depends.

You have local ''western'' stores that sells somewhat poor but economical fried ''american'' food then on the other end of the spectrum you have steakhouses and places that sell ribs for $50 dollars a rack.

It's all about price, the poorer folk tend to find that fast food(Burger king, MacDonalds and KFC) are the pinnacle of western cuisine and will order their steaks well done when they do get the chance to shell out money for prime cuts.(I WILL MURDER YOU)

Middle class and rich(er) folk who can afford it know where to get their quality food from hotels and whatnot. Singapore has an extremely strong food culture. We literally have the world's food at our fingertips with limitless choices right at our doorstep so much so that people are actually lazy to eat out due to the sheer number of choices available.

>You want to eat japanese, korean or french tonight dear?
>Ehh...anything i guess?

China on the other hand, are trying hard to adapt and show the world that they are civilized. They have very strong roots with their culture but the rich and elite are trying their best to westernize their children, be it clothes, education and food.

I've heard stories from a friend of mine in the wine business. Some of them would just buy the most expensive bottle on display to make a show of their wealth only to mix said wine with ice and sweet soda drinks.

They tend to piss off the waiters with pointless questions and assumptions.
