I'm a person whose love to cook different types of food everyday, especially for lunch (sometimes brunch) and dinner. I wonder if anybody here can give their own favorite food (maybe recipe too) for me to cook and eat :)

[Hint: my diet are consisted of dairy product, seafood, green veggies, tomato, eggplant, mushrooms, and egg]

I would recommend a Jianbing. This is an extremely popular Chinese street food that was really hard to find outside of China; allegedly they are getting more popular worldwide though. Chicago has one of this on the basement floor of that mall in the Loop (at Lake I believe?)

Cooking method is very similar to a savory crepe, you cook it on a large, round heating iron & spread the mix, brush the sauce on, place one of those crunchy... things, add any stuffing, and it's done. Ppl usually put meat as stuffing but a vegetarian one should work too

I have never made this myself so I can't give a recipe... Maybe there are tutorials on YouTube

Thanks for the recipe! Last Tuesday, I just cooked is as my dinner (although I need to replace the crepe by using some leftover Indian Bread on my fridge. But overall it's very tasty, especially when I use octopus as replacement for lack of meat or chicken.
