Hello, Alison,

哈哈, 听你说得我也想吃了。(Hāhā , tīng nǐ shuō děi wǒ yě xiǎng chī le .)

I guess you meant 水煮魚(shuǐ zhǔ yú).

It is not a kind of soup, we eat slices of fish, but don't drink the soup.

我真喜歡很多樣的中菜; 很難選擇最喜歡的食物...可能小籠包或魚蛋. 又好吃又點特別. 我也很喜歡吃魚香茄子。好味極了!我住在蘇格蘭,在這裡能從中國飯店叫外賣,非常方便!

I also really like spicy Szechuan fish soup, but I've never eaten that in the UK. I can't remember the name of it in Chinese though! Do you know the dish that I mean? It's full of chillies and can look a bit scary when they bring it to the table, but it has a deliciously fragrant flavor.

Hi, Beth,

Glad to hear from you!

In Chinese restaurants, there are many foods for vegetarians.

Also, we make foods only by vegetables at home.

As vegetable saute, mushroom foods...

In China, vegetable is cheeper than meat, so vegetables are the main food in China.

Are there any common vegetarian foods to ask for? Tofu is an obvious one, but are there one or two others?
