I witnessed the beef noodles raised it price from 2.5 Yuan (≈0.3 Euro，when beginning of 21st Centuries ) to 7 Yuan (0.87 Euro, since maybe 5 years ?) per bowl, however, it is still the most intimate food in the hearts of Lanzhou people. ✨✨

I had primary school in Australia for a year, when the teacher asked the class what's our favorite food, I said beef noodles. Everyone laughed, and I was confused on what was so funny. Looking back, they probably thought China was very poor and people can't afford beef, and misunderstood it that I like beef noodles because I don't get to eat beef. Non of my fellow class mate or my teachers were racist ofc, they were fun and kind, but it is interesting how little primary school children, already has developed negative views on China

Amy, first of all your dad is hilarious lol. The father-daughter dynamic in these videos is pretty cool to watch. It has been a pleasure to follow your KZbin journey from a few thousand subs to this point, and looking forward to more. 😊 It's also heartwarming to see the Chinese culture being embraced by someone like yourself who then shares it to a large audience base. I spent my teenage years in the early 90s in Melbourne and unfortunately back then this was not the case. In fact, as a young Taiwanese I saw our culture being rejected at the time. As a result, my family left OZ for good in the mid 90s. Last year, I returned for the first time to my 25 year high school reunion, only to find a much different Melbourne. While the city has always been multicultural, it seems like all cultures are finally being celebrated now. Anyway, my point is that while these videos are very entertaining, they serve a much grander purpose. You're creating a better understand and appreciation, and more importantly bridging the gap, through humour and food, in a time when politics across the world is quite tainted with hatred. Good job on being a cultural ambassador of the East and West! 👍

I read somewhere that the authentic name for this noodle is 兰州牛肉面 - Lanzhou Beef noodles instead of 兰州拉面 Lanzhou La Mian. All the Lanzhou La Mian shops are found outside of Lanzhou, many not even operated by people from that regaion. They branded it as 兰州拉面 because noodle pulling attracts eyeballs thus more business. But I guess naming is not that important, because this one you found, as you said is really authentic.

yes. in Lanzhou, every one 牛肉面 or 牛大碗。 拉面 is never used in Lanzhou. As long as it is called “拉面”in shop signboard, it means it is not the traditional way or taste of Lanzhou beef noodle. most of them are made by Qinghai people. They cook beef noodle differently and use “Lanzhou" name as branding. Looking for restaurant with signboard “兰州清真牛肉面” or just "清真牛肉面", it will be higher chance for you to get taste closer to original if you want the original taste.
