Ever wondered what to get the father-in-law for his birthday or how to organise a party in a Souther Chinese village? Read on...

92-year-old Guizhou villager treated to home-cooked Italian birthday banquet ordered online

With her 92-year-old husband's father's birthday coming up, a very thoughtful and internet savvy Guizhou villager went online and booked a banquet of Italian food, to be prepared in their village by foreign chefs, to mark the occasion for a price tag of just 5,000 yuan.

Sina News reports that while at the local Taobao outlet in Yunshe Village, a village located deep in the mountains of Guizhou Province and home to members of the Tujia ethnic group, Zeng Jinchai spotted an advertisement on the storefront for direct-delivery Italian goods. For her husband's father's 92nd birthday, Zeng went all out and ordered 10 Italian set meals online from the supplier for 500 yuan a piece.

555+ He might be in for a shock!

Mind you pasta is not miles away from Chinese noodles. Judging from the pictures, this type of Italian food might lean toward the Chinese taste buds. The pasta looks mixed with with an oily tomato sauce.

Miles away from the light Mediterranean food with its abundance of fresh vegetables, including the compulsory olives, I'd normally would go for.

The Italians stole the concept of noodles from China. Old fellow looks happy, and HappyBday to him.

A 4,000-year-old bowl of noodles unearthed in China is the earliest example ever found of one of the world's most popular foods, scientists reported today. It also suggests an Asian—not Italian—origin for the staple dish.

'Prior to the discovery of noodles at the Lajia archaeological site, the earliest record of noodles appears in a book written during China's East Han Dynasty sometime between A.D. 25 and 220, Lu said.'
