(Jenny) Hello, everyone! I just got back from a trip to the Silk Road in China. Everything was great — especially the food! My favourite dishes were Beijing Duck and Lanzhou noodles. What's so special about these two dishes? Well, they have a lot of history behind them. Beijing Duck is really a Chinese treasure. It takes a lot of work, but the end product is worth it. Lanzhou noodles are long hand-made noodles. They look good and taste great! Do you want to taste these wonderful foods from China?
Jenny goes online to tell others about the food in China.
(Dora) Your story is very interesting. I saw a show about Lanzhou noodles on TV. The man made the noodles so fast. It was like magic!
(Monica) I heard that, in China, some people eat noodles for breakfast. Is this true?

(Paul) I once had Beijing Duck in our city. Can I find Lanzhou noodles here? I will try.
