            <para>The purpose of the Restaurant Module (RST) is to acquaint you with Chinese cuisine
                and eating customs and to provide you with the linguistic skills you need to be able
                to order food in a restaurant or to dine at home.</para>

                            translated here as “fried dumpling”, but actually a <foreignphrase
                                xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">guōtiē</foreignphrase> differs from a
                            dumpling in several respects. We usually think of a dumpling as a solid
                            lump of leavened dough dropped in soup to cook. A <foreignphrase
                                xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">guōtiē</foreignphrase>, however, is made
                            of thin, unleavened dough, which serves as a wrapper for a filling. This
                            filling may be Chinese cabbage, port, beef, lamb, or any combination,
                            thereof. Secondly, a <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
                                >guōtiē</foreignphrase> is not dropped in soup, but is steamed and
                            fried, so that the bottom is crisp and the top is soft. </para>

                            etc.). The steamed bread is made from a raised dough and forms a thick
                            bun, somewhat similar in concept to a hamburger. </para>

                                “how many” in rapid speech. Usually there will be other clues such
                                as intonation and context to help you distinguish them. This is
                                discussed again in Unit 3 of the Directions Module. </para>

                                mean “don't” in sentences expressing a command. You'll learn more
                                about this in the Transportation Module. The marker le for new
                                situation is used here to reinforce the idea of “excessive”.
                                Whenever a speaker says something is excessive, he is actually

                        is literally translated as “fried eggs”. Since <foreignphrase
                            xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">chǎo</foreignphrase> means “to stir fry”,
                        however, it actually refers to scrambled eggs.</para>
                    <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">kǎo miànbāo</foreignphrase>:
                        “Toast”. This phrase is the verb <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
                            >kǎo</foreignphrase> “to roast” and the word for “bread”, <foreignphrase

                        Here again you see the verb <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
                            >lái</foreignphrase> used to mean “bring”. The word <foreignphrase
                            xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">zài</foreignphrase> is the adverb “again”.
                        Literally translated, this phrase means something like “Please again
                        bring...”. This is the standard way to ask someone to bring more of
                        something.</para>
                    <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">shāobing</foreignphrase>: This
                        is a baked roll with layers of dough and covered with sesame seeds. It comes
                        in two shapes, one oblong and the other round like an English muffin, only
                        not as thick. It is usually eaten at breakfast.</para>

                        deep-fried. It resembles a cruller, but it is not sweet. Literally, the name
                        means “oil stick”. It is usually eaten at breakfast, along with
                            <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">dòujiāng</foreignphrase> and
                        perhaps a <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"

                            xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">dòufu</foreignphrase>, is made from soybeans.
                        It is white, resembling milk, and high in protein. It may be flavored so
                        that it is sweet or salty. It is sometimes called soybean milk.</para>
                    <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">tiánde/xiānde</foreignphrase>:
                        Many foods in China such as <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
                            >bāozi</foreignphrase> and <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"
                            >dòujiāng</foreignphrase> come in two sorts: <foreignphrase

                            xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">xiānde</foreignphrase>. Although the Chinese
                        categorize foods as either salty or sweet, this does not mean that food
                        which is labeled “salty” is terribly salty. Sometimes the label “salty”
                        simply means “not sweet”.</para>

                    Western style food in the city. While they serve both Western and Chinese style
                    lunches and dinners, they are not always prepared to serve certain kinds of
                    Chinese breakfast foods, such as <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin"

                    to a type of meal in which soup, a main dish, rice and tea are all served for

                        sugar-syrup and sesame seeds. The apples are coated much in the same way
                        taffy apples are. These hot sugar-coated apples are then dropped into a bowl
                        of ice water, which hardens the sugar syrup covering into a crisp candy

                        tastes. The name for this dessert is translated many ways: “spun taffy
                        apples”, “caramel apple fritters”, “pulled silk apples”. Bananas can also be

                        soup, which is served at the end of the meal, is the main liquid of the

                        referred to in Chinese as <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">huáng
                            yú</foreignphrase>. In English, it is also called croaker, drum fish, or
                        China Bass. Since the <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">huánghuā
                            yú</foreignphrase> is a fish native to China, any American fish name

                        the fish, in soy sauce, sherry and water. It is called “red-cooked” because

                            >-Zhe</foreignphrase> is the marker of DURATION of actions and states.
                        It indicates that an action or state lasted for an amount of time. The
                        marker ne, on the other hand, marks ONGOING (and therefore present) actions
                        or states. In this expression the marker <foreignphrase
                            xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">-zhe</foreignphrase> tells us that at some
                        time the dishes CONTINUE in the state of being written on the blackboard,
                        and the marker <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">ne</foreignphrase>
                        tells us that state is GOING ON now. <foreignphrase
                            xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">-Zhe</foreignphrase> is used in sentences to
                        describe activities which last over a period of time, whether that time is
                        past, present or future. A verb plus <foreignphrase
                            xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">-zhe</foreignphrase> in Chinese often
                        corresponds to the “-ing” form of the verb in English.<informaltable

                        are thin, wheat cakes, usually rolled out and cooked in pairs that are
                        separated before use. They resemble thin, French crepes in appearance. They
                        are eaten with dishes instead of rice.</para>

                        is a pork dish cooked with egg. It is eaten with <foreignphrase

                        vegetable dish made with no meat sauces or flavorings at all, and is
                        therefore correctly called a vegetarian vegetable dish. Although
                            <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">sùcài</foreignphrase> are made
                        without the use of meat sauces or meat flavorings, they are often artfully
                        seasoned and formed in such a way that they resemble meat very
                        closely.</para>
                    <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">xiāng</foreignphrase>: This is
                        the adjectival verb “to be fragrant”. <foreignphrase
                            xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">Zhège sùcài hěn xiāng.</foreignphrase>, could
                        also be translated as “This vegetarian vegetable dish has a good aroma”. The
                        verb <foreignphrase xml:lang="cmn-Latn-pinyin">xiāng</foreignphrase> is
                        often used when talking about food to refer to dishes with garlic or
                        ginger.</para>

                    <para>Most of the entertaining at a Chinese dinner party takes place at the
                        dinner table, although there is some tea drinking and chatting both before
                        and after the meal in other rooms. The dinner is served at a leisurely pace
                        so that each dish may be savored and talked about. A good dish is
                        appreciated for its appearance as much as its taste, texture and aroma. As
                        each dish is eaten, toasts will be made. The host will start off by toasting
                        the guest of honor and then other guests as a group. As the evening
                        progresses he will toast each guest in turn and each guest will probably
                        propose a toast of his own in honor of the host. A strongly flavored liquor

                        served. Guests usually drink only when toasting. If you'd like to take a
                        drink of something you either propose a toast or catch someone's eye and
                        silently toast each other.</para>
