Chinese Food Chinese are famous for their cuisine. Chinese are the ultimate gourmet. Especially in south China, they would say they'd eat everything th at has four legs besides the dinner table, ever ything that has two wings besides a plane. M any of the dishes served in China may really s urprise newcomers. And many of these dishe s are so called medicinal dishes believed to h ave extraordinary nutritional value, including Shark Fin, Swallow Nest.
Snake soup is among the most treasured sou ps in China. Then there are also snake gall an d blood mixed in liquor which supposedly will brighten your eyes. Some "westernized" Chin ese would suggest that if Adam and Eve had been Chinese we humans would still be in the Garden of Eden as they would have eaten the snake.
Chopsticks are the main table utensils in Chin a. Chinese children starts with a spoon but wi ll adapt to chopsticks as early as when he jus t turns one. As a gift chopsticks symbolize str aightforwardness, because of its shape. Chin ese chopsticks don't have pointed tip, unlike t he Japanese style that is refined to pick out t he bones for their main diet, fish. Chinese cho psticks are mostly of bamboo, but today there are more and more wooden ones and plastic ones.
Foreigners are not expected to use chopstick s proficiently, but if they do, they will give a mi ghty impression. Therefore before you go to C hina, go to the local Chinese restaurant, if not to find authentic Chinese food, at least you ca n practi ce the use of chopsticks. If in your fir st meal in China you don't have to use chopst icks, then if you still can't handle the two stick s to pick up a big shrimp in your tenth meal, y ou show your incompetence in learning and t he willingness to learn.
