Why do I like Lanzhou Lamian Noodles?

Ten minutes ago, I went downstairs to eat. No, I ate noodles. I walked into a Lanzhou Lamian Noodles involuntarily and ordered a fried Lamian Noodles without thinking. This shop is my second visit. Last time, it was the solstice of the winter two days ago. There is no doubt that I ate jiaozi. On major festivals like the winter solstice, we must celebrate and eat jiaozi, which is a tradition in the north, even though we are in a foreign land and have no relatives around. Now I am in the deep south, a place where there is no snow and no winter almost all the year round. On the solstice of more than 20 degrees in winter, I can't think where to eat jiaozi. Although there are many dumplings, they always feel that they are not authentic. I know that there must be one in Lamian Noodles, Lanzhou, and there is no need to make a hard choice, only beef and mutton and vegetarian jiaozi. I really couldn't taste the beef and mutton, so I finally ordered the leek and egg stuffing. I didn't even read the fried Lamian Noodles menu I ordered today. I also know that every Lamian Noodles in Lanzhou will have it, so you don't have to choose any spicy taste or choose any dishes. It is standard in Lanzhou Ramen Restaurant. Eggs or beef, with green peppers, green vegetables, cucumbers and carrots, are delicious, delicious and very suitable for dinner.

Whenever I don't know what to eat, I usually choose Lamian Noodles or Shaxian snacks, the legendary four famous snacks in China. There are two others. The locals said that one of them was Longjiang pork knuckle rice, and the other one didn't remember, so it doesn't matter. In the middle of the night and early in the morning, I always go to Shaxian Hotel and have a mixed noodle, steamed dumplings and signature crock soup to comfort my insomnia soul. For lunch and dinner, I will choose very formal Lanzhou cuisine. In fact, I like Lanzhou Lamian Noodles not for inexplicable feelings, but for some reasons.

Clean and hygienic.

Studying and working abroad for many years, I have been to many places and eaten a lot of local meals. Grand hotels and street snacks have their own characteristics. Most shops give people a very greasy feeling. Tables and benches, sauce bottle door handles, including chefs, waiters and proprietress herself, all have your feelings, which are the same in the whole country. But every Lanzhou ramen restaurant I have been to gives me a clean feeling, which I have never seen before. The signboard is new, the glass door is clean, you can buy it in the store, the stool is clean, and the floor is the same. The tablecloth with transparent glass on the table is always clean. The sauce bottle on the table must be changed regularly, unlike a bottle of soy sauce and a can of pepper in other stores that need to be changed for half a year. The menu is also very clean, always double-sided plastic, like photos, which they will take back after ordering. This environment is much better than many other shops outside. One more thing, before WeChat and Alipay appeared, you had to pay cash when you went out to eat, and the store would give you change. The banknotes of other restaurants are almost greasy and wrinkled, but Lanzhou Ramen Restaurant is placed in a brand-new silver tin box and neatly stacked. The environment is clean and refreshing, and eating here will be much more reassuring.

Halal.

I am usually a vegetarian when I eat out now. Most of the time, I eat noodles and eat less meat, unless it is a specialty butcher shop, such as a seafood and beef hotpot restaurant. Why? Because now the meat in many restaurants outside is fake, and it used to be pork. It really tastes like chewing cotton. Now even the fish is fake, and the pickled fish has melted without bones or thorns. This feeling is really like throwing up in the store on the spot. I am very comfortable with the meat in Lamian Noodles, Lanzhou. There is only mutton and beef, and there is chicken in the saute spicy chicken. Although the chef of Lanzhou Ramen Restaurant is the best, there are only a few pieces of beef in the noodle soup, as thin as cicada wings, but at least the meat is real, which is completely different from other restaurants outside. Only here can you eat some meat with confidence.

Faith.

Lanzhou Lamian Noodles, like their boss, has always been mysterious. It can be clearly felt that they are very independent and have never interacted with their own people in a small circle. Outsiders can't enter their circle, and it's even hard to understand them. They seldom deal with the outside world. I think this is also the unique reason for the existence of Lanzhou Lamian Noodles. No matter how the outside world changes, they will not be affected. No fake meat and greasy food. Wherever you go, there is only Lanzhou Lamian Noodles cuisine, but there is no local cuisine. The style will never change, and there will be no fake oil and eggs. Lamian Noodles in Lanzhou is also relatively small and quiet, and drinking is not allowed here. This mysterious and unique is what I admire and like most.

I have been away from home for many years. Whenever I am in a good mood or a bad mood, I will go to Lamian Noodles. I will quietly eat a bowl of noodles, walk out of the store, call home and tell my feelings. It has almost become a habit I can't quit. I like to eat a lot of delicious food, and I also like many shops. I only go when I suddenly remember that I really want to eat. But on weekdays, when you don't have time to think and don't know how to make a choice, it is definitely no problem to eat Lamian Noodles in Lanzhou.
