Dutch term or phrase: Uit het Chinees keuken
From a book about Chinese cooking, from the cover:

(This sounds bad to me)

With recipes from the Chinese cuisine
Is that acceptable?

I think it should be something like: with recipes from the Chinese kitchen

Please let me know your thoughts on this usage of 'cuisine'.

Thanks to all!

English translation:A taste of Chinese cuisine
Explanation:
if you want something a bit freer. Or: A feast of flavours from the Chinese kitchen. Don't like either of your own suggestions, I'm afraid. Especially not if it's the title. 'Chinese cuisine' alone might do, but a bit boring!
