What is the Definition of international cuisine?

International cuisine is largely an invention of the multinational hotel chains. It is an assembly of dishes largely drawn from the classic French and Italian repertoire, in many cases toned down a little in flavour so as to give no offence to the client. Bland and somewhat anonymous it makes no acknowledgement of the local cuisine and makes it difficult at times to know precisely where in the world you are at any one time. It lends itself to the utilisation of factory produced meals which can be given a final prep by unskilled kitchen staff.
