Year in and year out, we bid farewell to 2022 and welcome 2023. The beginning of the year is regarded as a new start, in which individuals tend to express blessing to others as well as set goals for themselves. On New Year’s Day, everyone can make any desire into a goal for the coming year, including what we wish for to better ourselves.

On November 24th, Mandarin Inn hosted a food-themed event "Learn Chinese while Eating and Drinking". On that day, 8 German ladies participated. All of them are new in China and very interested in Chinese food and food culture. Through the teaching and guidance of Teacher Sophia, they learned Chinese and understood Chinese food culture in practical situations. They not only enjoyed delicious food, but also practiced oral Chinese in dining circumstances.
