As the plane slowly rose, the landscape of Lanzhou gradually shrank into a miniature landscape, and a new chapter in the journey of Lu Yong and his girlfriend Hannah began.

Their next stop is Tianjin, a city that values ​​both food and culture.

Lu Yong is a coach. He is very strict in his daily training, but he has a special love for life, especially his pursuit of delicious food, which is almost comparable to his dedication to sports.

Hannah, a girl from a foreign country, is full of infinite curiosity and yearning for Chinese food. When the two of them are together, they can always turn ordinary days into poetry.

The plane landed at Tianjin Airport at 3: p.m. The sun shone through the clouds and shone on this historic city, giving it a golden glow. Lu Yong and Hannah walked out of the airport with their luggage, and a unique atmosphere of Tianjin hit them in the face, a unique charm that was the result of the interweaving of historical precipitation and modern vitality.

"Yong, I heard that Tianjin has a lot of delicious food. We must eat to our heart's content this time!" Hannah said excitedly, with anticipation gleaming in her eyes.

"Of course, Tianjin's food is famous for its exquisiteness." Lu Yong responded with a smile, and he had already figured out where to go first. "Come on, I'll take you to try the famous Goubuli steamed buns."

The two took a taxi straight to their destination. Along the way, the streets and alleys of Tianjin outside the car window were bustling with life. Food stalls, time-honored restaurants, and quaint buildings all told the story of this city.

When they arrived at the Goubuli Steamed Buns Shop, they saw that the shop was crowded and bustling. Lu Yong and Hannah found a seat and sat down, ordering a few baskets of the signature steamed buns.

While waiting, Lu Yong told Hannah the origin of Goubuli steamed buns: "This Goubuli steamed bun is the first of the three specialties of Tianjin, and it has a long history. It is said that it was first created by a peddler named Gao Guiyou. Because the business was so good, he was too busy to handle it, and even ignored the barking of dogs, so it was named 'Goubuli'."

Hannah listened with great interest, her eyes full of curiosity: "So interesting! It must taste very special, right?"

As they were talking, the steaming buns were served, and a rich aroma filled the air. Lu Yong picked up a bun and took a bite, and the juice instantly overflowed, with a fresh and fragrant aroma. Hannah couldn't wait to taste it either. The buns had a thin skin and a large filling, and the meat was tender and mellow, leaving a lasting aftertaste.

"Wow, it's really delicious!" Hannah praised it endlessly, with a happy smile on her face.

Lu Yong smiled and nodded: "This is the authentic taste of Tianjin."

After eating the buns, the two ordered a plate of ear-shaped fried cakes. This snack is golden in color, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The sweet but not greasy red bean paste complements the crispy fried cakes, making people unable to stop eating.

"This fried cake is so sweet that it touches my heart." Hannah said with a smile, still holding half a piece of fried cake in her hand, reluctant to put it down.

Lu Yong smiled and said: "Tianjin's cuisine is all about craftsmanship. Behind every snack, there is a profound cultural heritage and unique production process."

Next, the two tasted another specialty of Tianjin - Mahua. This time-honored brand uses high-quality blue-white flour and is carefully made through multiple processes. Each Mahua is golden and crispy, with distinct taste layers, the mellow aroma of flour and the fragrance of sesame, which makes people have endless aftertaste.

"This fried dough twist is simply a work of art!" Hannah exclaimed, holding the fried dough twist in her hand and looking at it carefully.

Lu Yong smiled and nodded: "Yes, Tianjin's fried dough twist is not only delicious, but also carries the history and culture of this city."

Finally, the two came to a well-known fried tripe restaurant. The fried tripe in this restaurant uses high-quality sheep or beef tripe, and after fine processing and unique production technology, each slice of tripe is as thin as a cicada's wing, with a crispy and tender taste. Dipped in special seasoning, the taste is even more delicious.

"This fried tripe is absolutely amazing!" Lu Yong took a bite and couldn't help but exclaimed.

Hannah also took a bite, and her eyes lit up instantly: "Wow, this texture and taste are simply irresistible!"

The two chatted while eating, enjoying this rare time of food. Lu Yong told Hannah about the history and culture of Tianjin, while Hannah shared her understanding and feelings about Chinese food. At this small dining table, the two became closer.

At this time, a small incident suddenly happened in the store. A customer had an argument with the waiter because he was dissatisfied with the dishes. As bystanders, Lu Yong and Hannah saw the straightforwardness and enthusiasm of Tianjin people.

Although the waiter had a firm attitude, his words revealed his confidence and pride in his own dishes. Although the customer was a little dissatisfied, he was ultimately moved by the waiter's sincerity and enthusiasm, and the two sides shook hands and made peace.

"This is the people of Tianjin," Lu Yong told Hannah. "They are serious about and love food, but at the same time they are also straightforward and enthusiastic. This character, like this city, has both the weight of history and the vitality of modern times."

Hannah nodded and said with deep feeling: "Yes, this trip has made me understand Tianjin better and like this city more."

The two continued to taste the food, chat, and enjoy this rare leisure time. During the food tour in Tianjin, they not only tasted delicious food, but also felt the unique charm and cultural heritage of this city. For Lu Yong and Hannah, this trip has also become an unforgettable memory in their love.

As night falls, the streets of Tianjin are still bustling. Lu Yong and Hannah walked hand in hand on the way back to the hotel, their hearts full of satisfaction and happiness. They know that this trip to Tianjin is just the beginning of their food journey, and there will be more delicious food waiting for them to explore and taste in the future.

And in the process, they will travel to more cities together and taste more delicious food.

As the morning light breaks, the city of Tianjin gradually wakes up under the caress of the morning light.

Lu Yong and Hannah, a pair of lovers, embarked on the first day of their trip to Tianjin with curiosity about the unknown and deep affection for each other.

Their first stop was the Tianjin Eye, a 120-meter-high giant Ferris wheel that towers over the Haihe River. It is not only a landmark of Tianjin, but also a romantic sanctuary in the hearts of countless couples.

"Yong, look at that Ferris wheel. It's like a witness of our love, high up in the sky, overlooking the city." Hannah pointed to the Tianjin Eye not far away, her eyes flashing with anticipation and excitement.

Lu Yong smiled and held Hannah's hand tightly: "Yes, today, let me take you to the sky to see the beauty of this city."

The two walked through the bustling crowd and came to the entrance of the Ferris wheel. As the wheel cabin slowly rose, the scenery of Tianjin gradually spread out in front of them. High-rise buildings, quaint buildings, and the winding Haihe River, everything became small and clear under their feet. When the wheel cabin reached the highest point, the beautiful scenery of the entire TJ city area was in full view, which was magnificent. "Wow, it's so beautiful!" Hannah couldn't help but exclaimed, her eyes full of surprise.

Lu Yong took out his cell phone and said to Hannah with a smile: "Come on, let's take some photos as a souvenir."

So, the two began to take photos in various funny and affectionate ways. Lu Yong made all kinds of exaggerated expressions, making Hannah laugh so hard that she fell backwards; while Hannah snuggled in Lu Yong's arms, and the two of them froze their sweet smiles at that moment. These photos not only recorded their happiness, but also became a testimony of their love.

During the photo-taking break, Lu Yong suddenly remembered something: "Hannah, do you know? There is a legend about the Tianjin Eye that says if you make a wish at the highest point, your wish will come true."

Hannah's eyes lit up: "Really? Then let's make a wish!"

The two closed their eyes, put their hands together, and silently made wishes for each other and their expectations for the future. At that moment, time seemed to stand still, leaving only the sound of their heartbeats and breathing.

When the wheelhouse slowly descended and returned to the ground, both of them were reluctant to leave. But life is always full of surprises. Lu Yong said mysteriously to Hannah: "Come on, I'll take you to taste another delicacy in Tianjin."

At noon, Lu Yong took Hannah to a nearby pastry shop, Zhilanzhai. Although this pastry shop is inconspicuous, it hides a treasure of Tianjin - Zhilanzhai cakes.

"Hannah, try this." Lu Yong handed Hannah a piece of cake.

Hannah took the cake and saw that it was as white as snow, pure and flawless, like the first breeze blowing on her cheek in the morning light, gentle and fresh. She took a bite, and instantly, the gentle blend of rice and glutinous rice melted in her mouth, sweet but not greasy, just like the taste of first love gently jumping on the tip of her tongue, leaving an unforgettable sweetness.

"It's so delicious!" Hannah couldn't help but praise, "This cake is like a work of art."

Lu Yong smiled and nodded: "Yes, Zhilanzhai cakes are a time-honored brand in Tianjin. Its history can almost be traced back to the roots of this city. Every piece of cake carries the craftsman's hard work and adherence to tradition."

Hannah tasted the cake carefully, feeling its unique flavor: "Yong, do you think this cake also symbolizes our love? It is pure and flawless, and full of sweetness."

Lu Yong looked at Hannah affectionately: "Yes, just like our love, no matter how many storms we go through, we can always maintain the original innocence and sweetness."

The two of them ate and talked, enjoying this rare tranquility and sweetness. The pastry shop was filled with the aroma of cakes and the taste of happiness. The outside world was still noisy and busy, but here, time seemed to slow down, leaving only their laughter and sweetness.

However, life is always full of uncertainties. Just when the two were immersed in happiness, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly broke the tranquility. A young man hurried into the pastry shop, looking anxious: "Boss, please pack a few cakes for me, I'm in a hurry!"

It turned out that the young man was an employee of a nearby company. Today, the company had an important meeting and he was responsible for preparing refreshments. However, due to time constraints, he ran around several nearby pastry shops, but was unable to buy suitable pastries for various reasons. Finally, he came to Zhilanzhai, hoping to find a savior here.

The boss looked at the young man's anxious expression, smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I'll pack it for you right away."

The young man was very grateful and thanked them repeatedly. Lu Yong and Hannah also felt the warmth between people in this process. They smiled at each other and continued to taste the cakes in their hands, but in this sweetness, there was an additional feeling and cherishment for life.

When leaving the pastry shop, Hannah looked back at the shop full of warmth and sweetness and said, "Yong, when we come to Tianjin next time, we must come here to eat pastries again."

Lu Yong smiled and nodded: "Of course, there are not only delicious cakes here, but also our beautiful memories."

The two people's trip to Tianjin began with a romantic encounter at Tianjin Eye and Zhilanzhai Cake. They not only enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Tianjin, but also tasted the unique delicacies of this city.

For Lu Yong and Hannah, this trip was not only a feast for their taste buds, but also a spiritual baptism. They gained happiness, touched hearts, and gained a deeper love.

The morning light shone through the gaps in the curtains onto Lu Yong and Hannah's faces.

The two slowly opened their eyes and smiled at each other, as if the whole world had become gentle at this moment. After getting up, they simply ate something in the hotel restaurant, and then couldn't wait to embark on a journey to explore Tianjin. Today's destination is the famous Ancient Culture Street, a place full of historical charm and folk customs.

Ancient Culture Street, one of the most representative old streets in Tianjin, is like a painting that travels through time and space, skillfully integrating the architectural style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties with the atmosphere of modern life. On both sides of the street, there are all kinds of shops, including traditional handicrafts, Tianjin specialty snacks, and historical sites, which are dazzling.

Lu Yong held Hannah's hand and strolled along this charming street. Their steps were light and cheerful, as if every step was on the pulse of history. Hannah was full of curiosity about everything here, and her bright eyes kept looking around, trying to take in every detail.

"Yong, look at this!" Hannah pointed at the antiques on a stall and shouted excitedly.

Lu Yong looked in the direction Hannah pointed, and saw all kinds of strange-shaped items on the stall, including porcelain bottles, jade, bronze, etc., each of which exuded an ancient atmosphere. He smiled and walked to the stall and began to examine it carefully.

"These are all antiques!" The stall owner was a middle-aged man. He looked at Lu Yong and Hannah with a smile, "You really came to the right place. This is the most famous ancient culture street in Tianjin. These things are treasures I collected from all over the place."

Although Lu Yong was not an expert, he knew a thing or two about antiques. He picked up a porcelain vase, turned it gently, and then told its age, craftsmanship and approximate value. Hannah listened with great interest, her eyes sparkling with admiration.

"This porcelain vase is pretty good, and it's a very realistic imitation." Lu Yong pointed to a blue and white porcelain vase and said, "But it's a pity that it's a fake."

The stall owner was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Young man, you have a good eye! But then again, it's not easy to come across authentic items these days. Although these fakes are not as good as the authentic ones, they are also a thought, and it's nice to keep them as a souvenir."

Lu Yong nodded, thinking that the stall owner made sense. So he picked out a few antiques with a high degree of simulation and bought them at a very low price, ready to keep them as souvenirs.

Hannah also picked out an exquisite jade pendant, put it on her neck, and smiled from ear to ear. (End of this chapter)
