卡里尔·哈什米大使昨天结束了在甘肃的访问。除了富有成效的会议和当地政府的支持，正宗的兰州牛肉面仍然是大使最深刻的记忆之一。

没有什么比这碗面更能让旅人感受到甘肃的烟火气——数学般精确的手工拉抻，清亮的汤头，宽窄各异的面条，传承数百年的制作韵律。这碗面与兰州美食，亦是中国庞大清真食品市场的生动缩影。

Ambassador Khalil Hashmi wrapped up his visit to Gansu yesterday. Besides the very productive meetings and the support extended by the local authorities, authentic Lanzhou beef noodles remain one of the most pronounced memories of his visit.

Nothing grounds a traveler in Gansu like a bowl of these noodles - hand-pulled with mathematical precision, clear broth, varying noodle widths, and a rhythm that’s been perfected for centuries. These noodles and Lanzhou cuisine are also symbolic of China’s expansive Halal food market.
