Almost all the outsiders will think of beef noodles at the mere of Lanzhou. As a person who was born in Lanzhou, I would like to make a detailed introduction about beef noodles.

    There is no doubt that beef noodles are the distinctive feature of Lanzhou. It is generally believed that people who live in the north of China prefer eating noodles to rice. So Lanzhou native is used to eating a bowl of beef noodles as breakfast. The chefs turn clumps of dough into thickness hand-pulled noodles. Then they put thick beef soup into boiled noodles. Finally add a little green onion, caraway and chill oil. The turnip in soup is necessary. Vinegar can make its taste more outstanding. Every time you eat beef noodles, you need to choose which thickness you want and whether the seasonings are supposed to add. In Lanzhou, restaurants of beef noodles are easy to find. Not always chain restaurants are best, not always everyone has the same favor. One certainty is that beef noodles in Lanzhou are completely authentic.

    A dish is not only a symbol of a city, but also a flavor with memories of a place called hometown.
