中秋节，又称团圆节、月饼节，是中国民间的传统节日，在每年的农历八月十五日。中秋节源自天象崇拜，由上古时代秋夕祭月演变而来。

　　The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Reunion Festival and Mooncake Festival, is a traditional Chinese folk festival that falls on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month every year.The Mid-Autumn Festival originated from the worship of celestial phenomena, and evolved from the Qiu Xi festival in ancient times.

　　中秋节自古便有祭月、赏月、吃月饼、看花灯、赏桂花、饮桂花酒等民俗，流传至今，经久不息。中秋节以月之圆兆人之团圆，寄托思念故乡，思念亲人之情，祈盼丰收、幸福。

　　Since then, there have been some folk customs such as offering sacrifices to the moon, admiring the moon, eating mooncakes, watching lanterns, appreciating osmanthus flowers, and drinking osmanthus wine in the Mid-Autumn Festival.The main significance of the Mid-Autumn Festival lies in celebrating the harvest, strengthening family ethics and advocating interpersonal communication.

　　你以为接下来要讲月饼的制作技艺吗？不，这并不是一期常规的《In Shandong》！接下来，我的同事Donna小姐姐将给大家展示下Z世代的年轻人是如何花样过中秋节的！我去吃月饼啦！一会儿见！

　　Do you think we will talk about the craftsmanship of making mooncakes later? Nah, this is not a regular episode of “In Shandong“! Next, my colleague, Miss Donna, is gonna to show you how the young people of Generation Z celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival! Maybe I’ll grab some mooncake! See you later!

　　中秋节要怎样过呢？有了！先点份月饼外卖吃吃吧！

　　Well, how do I spend the Mid-Autumn Festival? Got it! What about ordering a mooncake delivery?

　　今天我们点了哪几种月饼呢？月饼是一种用酥皮覆裹着的点心，馅料丰富多样、数不胜数。我今天就点了一些超惊艳的花样月饼！济南的许多烘焙店将月饼做成了颇具城市特色的锦鲤、荷叶、荷花和莲藕片等形状。桂花酒酿月饼：香甜软糯、浓浓的桂花香。小龙虾鲜肉月饼和腌笃鲜月饼：鲜嫩多汁，有一点点辣。

　　Look what do we have for today. Mooncake is a crust-covered confection with countless fillings and shapes. Today, I ordered some really stunning ones! Bakery brands here created mooncakes of unique Jinan style. They are in different shapes of koi fish, lotus leaf, lotus flower and a lotus root slice. Mooncake with osmanthus flowers and fermented glutinous rice inside: soft and sweet, strong fragrance of flowers. And these are crawfish meat mooncakes and salted pork and bamboo shoots mooncakes: tender and juicy, a little bit spicy.
