【正文】 riding the rational pursuit. This concept of diet is also coinciding with the traditional Chinese philosophy. Chinese philosophy is a representative of Oriental philosophy. Its distinguishing features are the macro, visual, vague and evasive. Chinese cooking method is to reconcile, and the ultimate goal is to reconcile out of a pleasing taste. The main stress is measured and the overall coordination. It contains a wealth of dialectics of Chinese philosophy, and all these depend on the degree of the wonderful flavor and harmony of dish. The everchanging within degrees decides the changeable of Chinese food, and it also decides the characteristics of Chinese food as well as the characteristics on each of the chefs. Differences in Targets All diet cannot be done without vegetables. The word “dish” is for the sound in China, and it always has something to do with the plants. According to a survey of western plants scholar, there are 600 varieties of vegetables, six times more than in the West. In fact, vegetable dish is usual food. Meat dish enters the normal diet only on holidays or higher living standards, so since ancient times, and there was a saying of “fresh vegetables”. Mandarin language: “Common people eat fresh vegetables, fish only offered in the worship.” It is said that fresh vegetables are mainly to the civilian in general, only being able to eat meat only in worship. Vegetarian diet takes the dominant position in the normal structure. Chinese people consider the vegetables as the main dish。 but Chinese people look short, their shoulders narrow and legs thin, their skin yellow and their body weak. The differences between Chinese and western food for Westerners to judge the merits of the two diet is not justified. Mr. Sun had profound study of the culture of food and incisive exposition. In his posing The Scheme for National Reconstruction, detailing the differences between Chinese and Western diet phenomenon, he concludes: Chinese ordinary people drink green tea, and eat simple food such as vegetables and tofu for meal. Such kinds of food are the most healthy and beneficial according to the research of hygienist. Therefore, the remote people in china, whose diet are far from meat and wine, always live a long life. Also China has a big population, and Chinese people have enormous power to resist disease, but they never try the nondiet. “He added:” The Chinese vegetarians all eat tofu. Tofu is expected as the real meat in plants, as it has the nutrition that meat has. It is the meat without toxic materials. So the Chinese are vegetarian used to be a custom without the promotion of scholars. It is also a custom that the European and American drink thick Wine, eat meat and fish. So there was science promotion before and a severe law later, such as the United States Prohibition. And the transfer will not carry out in a short time. Mr. Sun’s words tell out the scientific benefits of Chinese diet and disadvantages of Western diet. According to the characteristics of the significant differences between Chinese and Western diet targets, the Chinese character is called the plant character, while the Westerners’ is animal character. In response to the cultural behaviors, Westerners love adventure, exploration, conflict。 they never need to put every word on the table. This also shows a western personality and selfrespect. However, all the eating without jamming lacks the real affective tone like the Chinese people. Some people want to put the buffet in the Chinese food, but I think it is not feasible. Zhang Qijun in the Principles of Cooking tells us the main reason: First, buffet is not like 7 drinking tea. Drinking tea is just the thing to you before you choose, and displayed in the cafeteria there is a large number of food to eat, so when you want to have it, it is cold yet. Chinese cuisine will serve hot, if cold, nothing to eat. Secondly, buffet dishes only can do hard dishes and beneficial dishes. Then you can access for large plots. And those most representative of the Chinese culinary arts, such as the tender and lighter dishes, are not in this show. Third, the buffet can do stewing pot。 feast use the round table, which creates a unity in form, courtesy of the atmosphere of interest. Although from the health point view, this diet has obvious shortings, but it is consistent with our nation, “happy,” the general state of mind. Westerners pursue dining system. The first is the point of the dish, what to eat something, which also shows the western respect for individuality. Up after the meal, people eat each one of their own, feel free to add their own spices, a second course dish eaten before eating, before and after the two never mixed vegetables to eat. Most of China’s banquet will be seniority, respect for the elderly as the rows of seats standards. Chinese dining etiquette reflects a “l(fā)et” the spirit. The banquet, all the people will wait for the owner, and only when the owner please his mouth can you start to please your mouth. When a new food up, the owner generally pleases the guest of honor and shows respect for older people first. West row seat is standard, priority for women. In the seating arrangement, if the mon men and women to participate in the banquet, cochaired by the host and hostess, men and women must be fitted to two separate guest lists, seating arrangements in the form usually is: the host and the hostess are opposite, the host’s left and right is both sides of the female guests, the host faces the door so that he can know who is ing and then arrange in time. But if both men and women rush to dinner together, open the door and let women first. In serving with meals, you should know some rules. First, you can serve from the right to the female guest of honor, and then distribute then to other women in order, and finally to the hos
