But if the point of using Chinese goodies is because afternoon tea is
post-period in Europe, presumably she wants period Chinese goodies.
There are now two period Chinese cookbooks available (Soup for the

enough to answer the question. The little one does have a version of
the sort of roast pork one gets as a Chinese appetizer.
