2, Ningbo people's bowls and pots always look smaller than the local ones, and they are also big bowls, with a diameter one centimeter smaller than the local ones and almost as big as the local small bowls; Its small bowl is equivalent to the local standard soup bowl. The most interesting thing is that a bowl of dishes is served on the table, which makes people look enjoyable. It seems that the people who cook deliberately divide the dishes, which is very shallow, unlike northerners who like to pile them up into mountains. This is a standard dish. As soon as the chopsticks went down, the food in the bowl sank like a bomb. Eating without entry has psychological barriers, so put on your feet casually, so you won't be full. When I was a child, I visited a relative from Ning nationality and really learned this scene. In fact, the "stingy" of Ningbo people has its own reasons. Ningbo is near the sea, and locals like to eat salty goods. Salted hairtail, bibcock roast, amaranth stalk, stinky tofu, etc. They are all salted and very salty. This kind of thing can't be eaten in big gulps, and it can't be eaten all the time, so it is very wise to put it in small bowls and plates.
The taste of northern food is getting stronger and stronger, while that of southern food is getting weaker and clearer. Moreover, the eating habits of southerners are very scientific. Eating it several times a day not only avoids waste, but also facilitates the digestion and absorption of food. But once you get to the north, whether it's roast whole sheep or stewed pork ribs with potatoes, you have to serve a pot first, so you don't want to eat the next meal.

Northerners eat noodles and southerners eat rice. Southerners believe that noodles can only be eaten as snacks, and they will never be full. Northerners think that eating rice is both luxurious and not hungry. The difference of staple food has caused great differences in the whole diet structure and eating method. The north advocates simplicity, while the south pursues beauty. The diet in the north is rough, while the workmanship in the south is fine. Among the eight major cuisines, the south accounts for the vast majority, and there are many schools. Only Beijing cuisine and Shandong cuisine are left in the north, which cannot compete with Sichuan cuisine, Hunan cuisine and Guangdong cuisine.
6. Southerners are salty, spicy, oily and sweet, while northerners are dry and sour.
7. Northerners like to eat large pieces of meat and drink in big bowls; Southerners should carefully cut the meat, simmer it, stir-fry it tender and warm the wine.
