12 Chinese Foods I Miss A Lot

I am so hungry right now. If you ever visit China, you should eat these things. Or really just eat them because they're good.

凉皮 (Cold noodles)

If I could eat this every day I would.

北京烤鸭 (Peking Duck)


Some fancy places will literally cut the duck into nice arrangements in front of you.

小笼包/饺子 (Dumplings sort of)

^This is 小笼包 and while they're basically the same as dumplings, they're a lot soupier.

^These are proper dumplings. They look different from the other ones because they're folded differently and are boiled not steamed. Again, these come in different flavors and the stuffing varies a lot from place to place.

刀削面(Sort of Specialty Noodles)


The noodles are thicker and flatter than normal, and I really miss the texture.

羊肉串(Lamb Skewers)

One time I visited inner Mongolia, and they literally slaughtered a sheep in front of my family and then cooked it. I felt awful but it was delicious.

麻婆豆腐 (MaPo Tofu)

I feel like most people know this one. Yes, it is super good.

炒饭 &炒面 (Fried Rice &Fried Noodles)



I ate this last week.

I used to order this every time I went to a restaurant.

汤面(Noodles &Soup)


I had this yesterday. You can add whatever you want to it (usually leftovers) and it's still good.

葱油饼(Green Onion Scallion fried thing)

So crispy, so oily, so good. Used to eat these for breakfast instead of toast.

茶叶蛋 (Tea eggs)


An excellent snack. They sell these at convenience stores in china, and they're a lot more flavorful than the regular kind.

辣子鸡 (Spicy Chicken)

Most of those peppers you see are actually just for decoration. It's so fried MmmmmmmMmm....

DESSERTS:

珍珠奶茶 (Bubble Tea)

This is actually technically a Taiwanese thing (sorry :( ) But it's just so sweet and popular that I couldn't resist. Those little black tapioca balls are chewy and give you something to do instead of just drinking the insanely sweet milk tea. Now it comes in a bunch of varieties.

北京老冰棍 (Beijing popsicles)

These are literally less than 50 cents and I once ate 5 of these in a row before I got brain freeze.

There is some great food out there!

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
