Serve Meal

Typical Chinese Meal

To the Chinese, a meal usually constitutes rice or noodl or another grain, with a few dishes. The more the dishes, the more festive and special the occasion. Whatever the number of dishes, they should be well balanced so that in one meal a variety of foods are eaten.

Laying the table

In a dinning table, for each place setting there are usually one rice bowl, a matching saucer, soup spoon and a pair of chopsticks. Dishes are put in the middle of table to be shared by diners.
