You have eaten what "name does not match the real" food?

There has been a series of traditional food, especially the local food that is included in the intangible cultural heritage protection. I've organized several offline tasting events, and I really feel that a lot of the food is not what it seems.

First, the traditional cuisine of the pastry is easy to hit. The Shanxi Wenxi cooking cake is particularly impressive, because it happens to have a colleague is Shanxi, so the first batch of procurement of food in this, and is highly recommended. When the food arrives, can not wait to take a bite,...... and then, there is no then. Tried a few more pastries or desserts after that, and most of them were the same. To summarize, traditional pastries are particularly heavy oil and sugar, perhaps and then for the lack of these flavors, so especially like to add a lot of oil or sugar.

Second, the distinctive regional characteristics of the food, due to the taste or eating habits of various regions and other factors, will let non-regional people have a sense of name does not match the reality. More impressive is the Jiaxing meat dumplings, when it was time to see the travel tips had been highly recommended. But when personally tasting the time will be divided found that, gosh, before the delicious dumplings how will be so greasy, eat a dumpling actually have a feeling of eating meat sandwich, inside are fat. Maybe it is used to eating the northern small date dumplings, really can not enjoy this, but many friends in the South but this love. Perhaps this is the region caused by different dietary characteristics.

Our Chinese cuisine is really countless, such as Beijing duck, Henan chow mein, Xinjiang big dish chicken ...... but according to some local dialects, and around the ingredients are not the same call, so it is easy to misunderstand a dish.

Widely known is the wife cake and meat sandwich, because there is no wife in the wife cake, meat sandwich is actually a bun sandwich meat.

I'm going to talk about the most misunderstood dishes in my hometown of Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province.

1. Vegetarian chicken, although the surface with a chicken word, so many people think it is a part of the chicken to do out of the dish, but the actual soybean products, and chicken has nothing to do with, so many outsiders will feel incomprehensible.

2. Vegetarian ham, the word surface with the word ham, in fact, are also all soy products

3. Ants on the tree, when you see this dish, the mind will have a variety of ideas, is fried ants? Can you eat ants? When the dish is served on the table, that's the time to be skeptical, because ants on the tree is fried minced pork with fans.

For example, there are a lot of this, so in the field to eat when ordering food as much as possible to ask the store, in order to avoid our misunderstanding of the food.

Beef noodles in meat bun! It's obviously meat in a bun!!!!

I've been to Tianjin once, the dog is really famous, but really not so delicious, the name of the flavor is not fragrant, the streets of my hometown at any small store may be better than the dog is good.

Sometimes I always wonder if there is a strong Chinese marketing team behind the Japanese Yilan Ramen. Domestic including Hong Kong and Taiwan's various websites guide to Japan free travel food recommendations have a Lan. But. It's really bad! Their noodles have a bad taste, the soup is greasy, and the spice is added directly to the dried chili noodles. I can't even think about it, let alone eat it. ( ) My Japanese friends who know ramen always ask me, "Why do so many Chinese tourists queue up to eat Ichiran's awful ramen?" How can I answer them? ( - _- ) I just want to ask to go to line up a blue everyone, you in a Japanese ramen store in Japan with a Chinese menu to order, around the side of eating noodles with basically no Japanese, most of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and three regions of the Chinese. Don't you think there is some sense of contradiction.
