Solution to Evan Birnholz's May 11 crossword, ‘Plot Holes'

Here's a brief note about a clue discrepancy between the print and online versions of the crossword. The clue for 30A in today's print newspaper reads [Descriptor for some soups in Chinese American cuisine]. After I submitted the draft, I had it changed to [Descriptor for some soups in American Chinese cuisine], flipping 'Chinese' and 'American' in the order, and this is how it appears online. Unfortunately the newspaper had already gone to press before the print version could be updated. My guess is that the print clue isn't wrong, per se, but 'American Chinese cuisine' seems to be the more common construction of the term. In any case, sorry to any print solvers if that clue had been confusing.
