Why do you eat with a bowl?

One of the basic etiquette in China.

When the bowl is served, the thumb buckles the mouth of the bowl, the index finger, middle finger and ring finger buckle the bottom of the bowl, and the palm is empty. Improper bowls are not only unsightly, but also oppress the stomach and affect digestion.

It is best not to bring noodles, steamed stuffed buns, jiaozi and other big bowls. Holding a big bowl is ugly and tiring. It is worth noting that when eating a big bowl on the table, don't put your mouth close to the bowl, but feed it with chopsticks or spoons and send it to your mouth.
