20.There are many TV programs on Chinese food,but few are like China at Your Tongue Tips.The latest sevenpart documentary (纪录片) offers insights into the geographical,historical and cultural aspects of what Chinese eat.
Made by Chen Xiaoqing,an awardwinning documentary maker,China at Your Tongue Tips is filled with varieties of food,which tells us the beautiful process of foodmaking.The program is sure to attract both food experts and ordinary audiences.
Television is filled with food programs these days,especially introductions of top chefs and close looks at the complicated and refined (精制的) cooking processes of a feast (盛宴),but how to create dishes is only one aspect of food culture,according to Chen.
"The program tries to bring something new by presenting more cultural elements related to dishes,like eating habits of eating."
The surprise is that the show is not only about dishes.Every part focuses on different people,who tell stories about their adventures with food.
"As a saying goes,‘You are what you eat.'"Chen says."Food is always connected with people.Behind the documentary,they are stories that reflect people's living situations and attitudes.That's another section which makes it special."
To get enough good stories,the production team spent three months doing researches and interviews in about 60cities before they started shooting in last July.Filming lasted about nine months.
China at Your Tongue Tips shows social changes while presenting food culture,such as showing the elderly are in their hometowns while other members of this family work outside.In those cases,food serves as reminders of happy times and centerpieces of reunions.
