外媒评出中国八大美食圣地,兰州仅第二?
Although travelers can try dishes from around China and the globe in renowned food cities Beijing and Shanghai, it is outside these major metropolises where a world of exciting Chinese cuisine awaits the true foodie.
虽然旅客在中国全球知名的美食城北京和上海，可以品尝到来自中国各地的美食佳肴，不过除了这些大都市，中国其他城市也有令人无比兴奋的美食等待着真正美食家的到来。
With this in mind and after three years of living in China and writing about Chinese food, I embarked on a six-month journey with my husband and two daughters.
考虑到这一点，在中国生活并且写了三年关于中国美食的文章之后，跟丈夫和两个女儿开始了6个月的寻求美食圣地之旅。
We loaded up a campervan and set out from Shanghai on July 1. We've since covered more than 20,000 kilometers and 21 provinces in our quest to see China's most remote and beautiful areas, and to taste the different regional foods along our way.
我们驾车从上海出发，那天是7月1日。到现在，我们已经行走了2万多公里，到达了21个省市，我们看到了中国边远且美丽的地区，一路上还品尝了好吃的食品。
Here are eight most amazing Chinese food cities I've come across so far. The list is in no particular order.
这里有8个我认为惊为天人的美食之地。
1. Chengdu, Sichuan Province

2010年，成都被誉为亚洲第一个“联合国教科文组织的美食之城”。成都最有名的就是那火热的火锅和辛辣的菜肴，其主要特点是使用花椒，表面带有咸、酸和甜的口味。
There are also dishes that aren't spicy at all, such as beer-braised duck.
也有不辣的菜式，比如啤酒鸭。
The streets hold more than 100 varieties of street snacks, from savory jelly noodles to "dragon lifting a hand" (poached wontons drizzled in toasty chili oil, pepper corns and green onion).
街道上有着100多种小吃，既有酸辣粉，又有好吃的“龙抄手”（煮熟的馄饨，再浇上辣椒油，加上胡椒粒，葱花）

“喻家厨房”游客一定要去。这是一家高级餐厅，专做工序复杂的四川菜。
Hot pot is as ubiquitous in the city as the smell of chili. At Zigong Delicious Hotpot, the house specialty tiao shui wa (or "diving frog") is a cauldron of fiery chili to which vegetables, noodles or other meats can be added.
这个城市火锅无处不在，空气中也充满热辣辣的味道。在“自贡美味火锅”，这家的特色菜是“跳水蛙”，把辣椒，蔬菜，面条还有其他的肉类都添到一个大锅里。
