As China celebrated its 73rd National Day, overseas Chinese turned kitchens into love languages 🥢❤️. Duan Zhenzhen, a Norwich-based singer and music teacher, whipped up steaming dumplings and nostalgic family dishes while video-calling her parents back home. \"Every bite carries memories of our roots,\" she told us, her hands dusted with flour like powdered snow.

But it's not just about food—Duan sees her wok as a cultural bridge 🌉. Through cooking classes at local community centers, she teaches British neighbors how to fold jiaozi while sharing stories about China's development. \"When we see new high-speed rail lines opening back home, we cheer like it's our own graduation day!\" she laughed.

This heartwarming trend isn't isolated. Over 82% of Chinese students and expats surveyed in the UK said they reconnect with family through shared virtual meals during holidays 🎆. As one Weibo user put it: \"Our taste buds never left China—they're just on an extended study abroad program!\"
