Bread in the soup!

羊肉泡饃!

口語君：小吃最能體現(xiàn)一方地域文化和風土人情。那么問題來了，西安小吃哪個強?仔細聽下面的對話，有彩蛋哦!

------------------------------------------

F: I love street food – so that's a no-brainer for my itinerary. But is it a long walk?

我很喜歡街邊小吃，所以小吃街我是必去的。不過那條路需要走很遠嗎?

M: Not really, and most people enjoy a leisurely pace. We stopped for lamb soup, which is very famous there. It's made with a crumbled loaf of bread as well as noodles and mutton.

不需要，多數(shù)人都喜歡以閑適的步伐慢慢逛。我們半路還去吃了名氣很響的美食羊肉泡饃。湯里有碎饃、粉絲和羊肉。

F: Bread in the soup?

饃泡在湯里?

M: It sounds weird, I know. But it's very good. Spicy, too! It's also fun to watch the cooks making soup over a big fire. Plus, there are lots of dried fruits and interesting pastries and breads. They also make sesame candy by pounding the seeds into paste with big hammers.

我知道，聽起來是挺怪的，但味道非常好，也很辣!看廚師在猛火上煮湯也很有趣。此外，那兒還有很多干果、有趣的甜點和面點。人們還用大錘子將芝麻壓進面糊里做芝麻糖。

F: That sounds fun to watch.

觀看制作過程似乎很有趣啊。

M: It is! But it's quite noisy, too. So those candy makers are easy to find.

可不!不過也非常吵，正因此芝麻糖攤很容易找。
