Chapter 16 Food Culture
The collection is slow and the recommendation is small. Please give me some strength!

But when pursuing these American girls, you should be more proactive, bolder, and express yourself directly if you like it. Don’t be hesitant, praise it if you should. Don’t be numb. If you dare to express it, everything is OK!
But not long after that, Jin Muchen had Ma Ling's girlfriend, and she had no chance to use the experience she learned from her predecessors.
Chinese girls and American girls are completely different from two creatures. Although they are essentially the same, their way of thinking and living habits are very different.
Originally, he thought that he had no chance to use the experience of playing white girls from the seniors, but he didn't expect that the opportunity would appear today. I just tried it and it seemed that the effect seemed very good.
Western girls like Candice are really a bit of this. Although Jin Muchen said something exaggeratedly, the beauty opposite was smiling like a flower, which is the best proof of his success in strategy.
The subway braked suddenly and the carriage swayed violently. Candice and Jin Muchen did not stand firm. Both of them instinctively raised their hands to grab the railing by the door. Unexpectedly, Candice took a step forward, but Jin Muchen grabbed Candice's hand.
The speed of the subway began to slow down, and one stop was reached in front, but at this time Jin Muchen did not mean to let go. He drank, wasn’t he just the hands of the pat or the drag?
Candice just blushed, but didn't say much, and let Jin Muchen's big hand cover her slender jade hand holding the railing. His palms were covered with calluses, very rough, but very dry and warm, which gave her an inexplicable sense of security...
The car door opened and a group of people soon squeezed up. There were many people getting on the bus at this stop, and the crowds were rushing, which made Candice, who was standing at the door, tilted around. At this time, Jin Muchen naturally stretched out his hand and took Candice into his arms.
At this time, he was like a rock by the beach, no matter how wind and rain, the waves were surging, but I remained unmoved. No matter how many people squeezed over, when they hit him, they were naturally bounced away.
Candice, who was stopped in his arms, felt as if he was about to faint. He had a faint smell of sweat and tobacco on his body, which smelled nicely, while his thick chest was so warm. In his arms, she suddenly felt that she was so safe.
"By the way, where are we going today?"
The subway slowly started, Candice pushed Jin Muchen away, came out of his arms, and quickly found a topic to break the embarrassment between the two.
"Uh? I haven't thought about it yet, but I'm a little hungry. Otherwise, we'll go to Chinatown for some morning tea first?"
Jin Muchen said to Candice naturally that he didn't like many Chinese restaurants in Chinatown, but the morning tea in those Cantonese restaurants was quite good, and the taste was not only loved by foreigners, but also by them.
"Okay! I'm a little hungry when you say this!"
Candice raised his head and smiled sweetly at Jin Muchen.
Jinfeng is one of the most famous Cantonese teahouses in Chinatown. It is located at No. 24 Elizabeth Street. It has a typical Chinese decoration style, with red as the main tone, red carpets and golden dragons and phoenixes. In the eyes of Americans, this is the most authentic Chinese restaurant.
Since you come to eat Cantonese morning tea, you can't miss some classic dishes, such as shrimp sauce, shrimp dumplings, Chaozhou noodles, soy sauce chicken feet, soy sauce pork ribs, soy sauce noodles, and of course, the store's signature durian crisp.
It is said that this durian crisp is made from the freshest durian air transported from Thailand every day. It is limited to 200 pieces per day, so it will not be available if you come late.
Moreover, not only are there traditional Cantonese morning tea refreshments, but also many food stall snacks on the streets of Yangcheng, including hot vegetables, bowls of wings, radish beef brisket, medicinal chicken feet, street snacks with various food stall styles, and traditional delicacies.
Jin Muchen had come with Ma Ling several times before. Even at that time, every time he came here to spend, the price of consumption would make him feel a little painful.
But now it doesn't, because at that time, he was spending his parents' money, and now he is spending his own money, not to mention that he is really well-off recently.
He sent 28,000 yuan to his mother in China for 20,000 yuan, and kept 3,000 yuan. In addition, he had just paid a salary a few days ago and some of his previous savings. Now he has a deposit of more than 10,000 yuan, so he was very confident at this time.
Candice's chopsticks are very good, but when you eat Chinese food, you will always be amazed from time to time. These foods are so wonderful and taste great.
When foreigners praise food, they usually use words like Nice and Good. However, if they say this, they usually say it verbally, and they may not be serious in their hearts. After listening to it, they just laugh and laugh.
But if he used Delicious, it means he was serious. The food was really delicious. Candice used the word Delicious several times in front of Jin Muchen, which means she was really happy today. This food was really delicious to her.
"What? I think you are very skilled in using chopsticks. You should have eaten Chinese food before? How can these snacks make you feel so delicious today?"
Jin Muchen sat opposite him with a smile and asked casually.
"It's really not. In the past, our family rarely ate Chinese food. My father always said that Chinese food is very oily and heavy in salt. It's not healthy food, so we eat very little..."
"So, our family rarely ate Chinese food before, and they ate more Thai and Vietnamese food. My chopsticks were made at that time."
To be honest, as a guy from a foodie empire, Jin Muchen felt really uncomfortable when he heard others comment on Chinese food like this, but he couldn't help but admit this fact.
That is, although Chinese food is delicious, it is actually not particularly healthy from a nutritional perspective, especially those high-salt and high-oil dishes.
For example, many of the ways in which Chinese food treats vegetables are fried at high temperatures, which will actually destroy the crude fiber and vitamin B5 of vegetables. Foreigners eat them by hot water and hot water. Although this way of eating is boring, from a nutritional perspective, it is indeed the healthiest way to eat.
Jin Muchen had also read some posts online before, saying that after seeing Chinese food, foreigners lick and like it crazy, as if the flower growers showed off their food, foreigners could only worship them.
Before he went abroad, he thought that was true, but two years later in the United States, he could only laugh and smile.
In fact, in foreign countries, there are generally three types of attitudes towards Chinese food: one is to like, one is to dispensable, and the other is to absolutely resist.
Moreover, when it comes to Chinese food, most foreigners’ first impression is that they are not healthy in addition to being delicious!
Some people may say, since you say that foreigners eat healthily, why are they all so fat?
In fact, this is related to their eating habits. In addition to fried food, many foreigners' lives cannot be separated from one thing, that is cheese, all kinds of cheeses, hard, soft, solid, liquid, sour, sweet, salty, spicy, and even smelly.
Damn, in the world of foreigners, there are all kinds of cheeses, and almost no meals are missing. Even if you watch TV and eat potato chips at night, you have to dip yogurt cheese, and if you eat two slices of cookies, you have to put a piece of dried cheese on it...
It is true that cheese is a good thing, but most of the inner things are fat. Cheese of all kinds of flavors. As long as you chew with your eyes closed, it will be a conclusion in the end, that is: fragrant!
Can it not smell good if it is fat? This is also why foreign women usually have invincible figures before the age of 30, but after the age of 30, they are prone to gain weight and distortion because they eat too much cheese.
However, Jin Muchen came out with Candice today, not why he discussed with her the differences in diet between China and foreign countries and the reasons why foreign women are prone to gaining weight, so he soon found a topic and changed the topic.
"By the way, what will we do after morning tea? You know, you are more familiar with this place than me, and it didn't take long for me to come to New York."
"Haha, this sentence is right. I am not very familiar with other places in New York like you, but when it comes to Manhattan, I am very familiar with it. You can follow me later."
Candice smiled and said to Jin Muchen. Soon the two of them swept away all the food in front of them and checked out of the teahouse. Candice led the way in front, turned a few turns in a familiar way, and then a small street covered with green trees appeared in front of them.
"Mu Chen, you said that you and Old Man Fang are learning antiques. You should have a certain understanding of antiques, so I think you should like it here very much."
Candice looked at the bustling street in front and said to Jin Muchen next to him.
It turned out that there was a Swan Park not far from Chinatown. There was a Hester Street next to the park. Every Saturday and Sunday, there was a small market for handicrafts and antiques. Today, where Candice brought Jin Muchen to this place.
There were originally twenty or thirty handicraft shops on both sides of Hester Street. Every weekend when there was a market, many small vendors who practiced stalls rushed over to participate, and these people sold everything.
There are those who sell their own handicrafts, and some second-hand goods. Of course, the most common ones are to buy antiques, so the nature here is very similar to those small antique markets in China.
So every weekend, there will be crowds of people here, which is a beautiful scenery near Manhattan Chinatown.
