        <description><![CDATA[<p>I'm not sure why.. but it took me a while to get comfortable saying <br /><br />十个羊肉串儿。。</p>
<p>At the start it sounded a little awkward to me. <br /><br />Great lesson, I've never heard of 丁丁炒面 before. Sounds gooooood.</p>]]></description>

<p>I totally agree.</p>
<p>Well, maybe you just have to look at the face of the 服务员the first time you go and just ask for 2 or 3 羊肉串儿, and then you get to know that you will need more than 3 if you want to start feeling your 肚子饱 ^^</p>]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[<p>I always ask for them to put more chilli on the kebabs (多放辣椒 / duōf&agrave;ngl&agrave;jiāo) and to cook them 'well done' (做熟一点 / sh&oacute;uyīdiǎn) &lt;note that the sh&uacute; in this case is colloquially pronounced as sh&oacute;u&gt;.</p>
<p>What then happens is that they never put enough chilli, and so when I tell them that there isn't enough chilli and to add more (which means they cook for longer)  (辣椒放得太少了，请多放点儿 / l&agrave;jiāo f&agrave;ngd&eacute; t&agrave;i shǎole, qǐng duō f&agrave;ng diǎnr) - the result is a well cooked kebab with enough chilli to kill any bacteria left in the meat - and it tastes super good!</p>
