I know very well that breakfast is the morning glow that wakes up a city and illuminates people’s colorful lives throughout the day. It's just that I have been living at home for too long, and I have less opportunities to experience the rich urban life in the city, which is somewhat regrettable. I once wanted to write a Lanzhou city breakfast series.

The plan for a year begins in spring, and the plan for a day begins in the morning. After the body has rested for a night,

at least it has passed since the last time we ate.

Nearly 10 hours have passed.

Now that you are very hungry,

What is your favorite breakfast? Some people think that for breakfast in Lanzhou, besides "beef noodles", there is also "beef noodles". In fact, Lanzhou people’s breakfast is always full of exciting surprises. The carts in the streets and alleys are filled with a variety of breakfasts. No matter who is in a hurry, there is still time to buy one to appease the hungry stomach after an empty night. It seems that the nature of foodies is revealed in the bones of Lanzhou people. The breakfast belonging to this city is rich and exquisite but full of fireworks. It can bring back memories of hometown wherever you go.

Second, potato grid. Potato Gege also occupies a place in Lanzhou's breakfast scene with its strength. Although it looks like fried and larger stuffed dumplings, for those who love potato, the skin made of hot noodles is very good. Top it with minced and prepared potato filling, which is golden and crispy after deep-frying. This cooking technique makes it even more delicious. The sauce mixed with chili pepper and vinegar is simply a favorite of Lanzhou people.

Third, tofu nao. Lanzhou's tofu puffs are different from the sweet tofu puffs in the south. The great thing is that you can add a variety of ingredients. The hot and tender tofu puffs are topped with a spoonful of spicy oil and a drizzle of mature vinegar. Paired with fried dough sticks or steamed buns, it tastes delicious.

Fourth, lotus leaf cake. Lanzhou's lotus leaf cakes are full of cakes, although they are small in size but have a lot of portions. As a standard item among students and a memory among office workers, the lotus leaf cake, which has stood for decades, also has its own status and popularity.

Fifth, Roujiamo. Everyone knows that Roujiamo is a specialty snack in Shaanxi, but food connoisseurs believe that Lanzhou Roujiamo is equally delicious. Freshly baked Thousand Layer Pancakes with thin and crispy skin, plus beef cooked with a secret recipe, the meat is rotten and fragrant, and tastes fat but not greasy, lean but not bad. It is one of the most popular breakfast products in Lanzhou.

Sixth, soy milk, fried dough sticks, tea eggs. The one-foot-long fried dough sticks are steaming and exuding an alluring aroma. Soaked in the fragrant hot soy milk, it awakens your stomach and your passion. It is said that eating a tea egg at the end can relieve fatigue and supplement high-quality protein. Keep you full of energy all day long.

Seventh, steamed buns and seaweed soup. Stuffed steamed buns are always tempting. Paired with a bowl of egg and seaweed soup, you will be the happiest person in the world while eating and drinking.

Eighth, pancake fruit.

Ninth, meat pie.
