We've seen these eyes before at Tianshui in Gansu and Sanxing in Sichuan.

这眼神，在甘肃天水见过，在四川三星堆见过。

Tianshui, a city tucked away in China's north-western hills, does not normally make headline news.

天水，一个位于中国西北山区的城市，通常不会成为头条新闻。

Shares of Tianshui Zhongxing Bio-technology Co., a local producer of mushrooms — a popular malatang ingredient — jumped to its highest level since September on Monday.

天水中兴生物科技公司的股票—当地蘑菇生产商，也是受欢迎的麻辣烫食材之一，在周一飙升至自九月以来的最高水平。

Local Communist Party chief Feng Wenge urged officials to " push for the grand development of Tianshui by taking advantage of a bowl of spicy malatang."

地方政府书记冯文戈呼吁官员们“利用一碗辣麻烫的热流，来推动天水的发展”。

The frenetic scene unfolded in the Chinese city of Tianshui over the past week as it raced to capitalize on a food trend to attract more visitors.

在过去的一周里，中国天水市上演了一幕疯狂的场面，他们竭力抓住了一种食品潮流，以吸引更多的游客。

Tianshui, an ancient Silk Road hub of some 2.9 million people in the northwestern province of Gansu, rolled out the red carpets after its version of the street food malatang went viral.

天水，一个位于甘肃西北部的古老丝绸之路枢纽，拥有约290万人口，在其街头食品麻辣烫走红后，推出了红地毯。

Tianshui's version features a sauce made of dried pepper that only grows in the Gangu county of Gansu, one of China's poorest provinces. A local newspaper describes its taste as slightly sweet, with the aroma of meat, fruits and honey.

天水的版本采用了一种由干辣椒制成的酱汁，这种辣椒只生长在中国最贫困省份之一的甘肃甘谷县。当地报纸描述其味道略带甜味，带有肉类、水果和蜜糖的香气。
