Eat western food with m family


After we had dinner with the Grade 12 students, I went to eat western food again. This time, I went to the restaurant in jinlin Hotel with my father.


This meal is total different with Jack’s place, it’s more solemn and romantic, very quiet. You even can hear the sound of a needle dropped on the floor. I think this place is better for a meeting or a date. It is not suitable for a dinner party because the atmosphere made me feel a little uncomfortable.


After the order, I looked around the restaurant, it was not very big but more elegant instead. I saw some foreigners eat and talk in a long table. Then I watched my table, lots of tableware, three knife: one for wiping butter, one for appetizer and the other one for main course. Two fork and two spoon, the big spoon is for drinking soup and the small one is for desert. In the middle of the table , there was a big basket of bread, different shapes and tasted. Dad told me that I need to eat some bread because the dishes we ordered would make in a long time, we might need to wait for 20 minutes. He was right! Actually, we waited for 25 minutes! I already finished all the bread in the small basketball but still feel very hungry. The first dish is Kaiser salad, a famous salad made of chicken’s chest and vegetables. It tasted good, the meat is very tender and the vegetables are flesh. Then we had the clam soup, when I drink it. Feeling in the mouth gentle full, is the traditional England flavor thick soup. when tastes, the clam tasty taste and the clam meat thick feeling in the mouth lets the person aftertaste be long.. the clams were all very clean, no sand in them and the clams didn’t have any bad smell. The color of the soup is like milk, that made the soup more tasty.. the main course came---- Diana beefsteak, it my favorite. After that meal., for a long time until today, I still think there isn’t an restaurant’s steak can equal that in my mind. It’s without equal.


This meal is very good, but I don’t think this place is suitable for our teenager, not only because of the solemn atmosphere, but also the high price of food. The most cheap food there(like small salad ) will also cost you 200 yuan!

The Chinese Art show







Art is different in different country, each country has it own kinds of cultural art, you also can say that the cultural art represent their own country. Today, I went to see an art show about the Chinese artwork.





This year in China is called “Niou Nian”, it mean’s this year is the Cow’s year. The cow is the simple of the year, you can see different cows everywhere this year, for example, this art show-----all of the drawing are about cows. When I enter the museum, the first artwork in my eyes is a big picture called “Holy Cow in Snow”, it is a Chinese painting. The artist of this artwork is contemporary, but his work is traditional. The artwork is constituted by three parts: the snow, the cow and the Calligraphy. The snow is very abstract just blue color, used dark and light part to show us the snow, it looks good from the distance, the blue and the white paper, looks like the snow on the mountain. I think the artist is smart to do this, it’s creative to make the background. The next part is the big cow in the picture, it is made by the ink, just black and white but looks very nice. The white snow on the black fur, walk in the snow by itself, like the holy cow in the story, bring people luck and happiness. The last part, the calligraphy, a good writing, tell us the name of the artwork and the artist’s name.





I like this artwork, it’s very simple, not difficult to understand. It used our cultural art, it told us a beautiful story and the view in the highland.
