Listening text:
Tingting: Welcome to my favourite Hunan restaurant! I hope you enjoy it!Anna: Thanks, Tingting. I'm very excited. I had never even heard of Hunan cuisine until you invited us. Lisa: But what kind of food is Hunan cuisine exactly Is it spicy like Sichuan food Tingting: It's even spicier, Lisa! But the flavour is somewhat different from Sichuan cuisine. The heat in Sichuan cuisine comes from chillies and Sichuan peppercorns. Hunan cuisine is often hotter and the heat usually comes from just chillies.
Anna: But why do Hunan people prefer such spicy food Tingting: Well, Hunan people will tell you that they like bold flavours because they are a bold people. But many Chinese people think that hot food helps them overcome the effects of rainy or wet weather, and it is often wet in Hunan as well as in other places in the south, such as Sichuan and Chongqing. Lisa: So what shall we order Tingting: I recommend the steamed fish head covered with chillies. I know fish head may sound strange, but the meat is quite tender and there are very few small bones, so everyone loves it.
Lisa: OK. And what's this here: dry pot duck with golden buns Tingting: It's duck stir-fried with garlic, ginger and black bean paste, and it has some bread with it. It's quite good, but I suggest the bridge tofu instead, as it has a lighter taste.Lisa: Yes, let's order that.Tingting: Now, what else would you like to eat, Lisa Lisa: I'm really hungry for some pork. Tingting: Well, then you should have the red braised pork. It's the most famous Hunan dish. Anna: Why is that Tingting: Well, Chairman Mao was from Hunan, and this was his favorite food.Anna: Oh, that's interesting. Let's have that then. Tingting: So, we're ready to order Waitress!
A: I really love spicy food, so what dish would you recommend
B: I suggest Mapo tofu.
A: Really What’s that
B: It’s tofu served in a spicy bean and chilli sauce with beef or pork. It’s quite hot.
A: That sounds OK, except that I don’t really like tofu. What else do you recommend
B: You know, this restaurant has the best hot pot. You’ll like it because it is really spicy and you decide what you want to put in it.
A: That sounds great!
B: But then we should order some cold drink as well.
A: Why
B: Well, the food is so spicy that we’ll need something to cool us down.
A: That sounds good.
B: Waiter!
C: May I take your order
B: We’d like hot pot for two with a good selection of meat and vegetables.
C: So that’s hot pot for two.
B: Oh, and do you have iced tea
C: Yes, we do.
B: Then we’d like two glasses to go with our meal.
