Person who likes noodle and food made by flour will love it. It's outlets are almost everywhere in Shenzhen.

After the lunch, as we walked back, i bought a book full of recipes of soup making in the newly opened bookstore near our place.

Local people drink a lot of soup. They cook different types of soup with different ingredients during different seasons. They believe it provides a lot of nutrition needed and keep them healthy while the season change. Therefore, i think to be healthy always we should follow their eating culture since we live here. Plus, hubby - a real soup lover have requested to have soup for every dinner at home. This book will be a great help to me, won't have to burn my head to think of what soup to cook.....trying one recipe a day, will take 1888 days to finish all. That would be more than 5 years....... ;p
