Although Haaland has long become a world-class star, he still patronizes the Chinese restaurant he used to go to as a child when he returns to his hometown. The restaurant owner revealed that he was always humble and polite and never put on airs when facing fans.
Before breaking records in the Premier League and becoming the world's top striker, Haaland was just an ordinary kid who often went to a local Chinese restaurant in Norway.
When Hui Zhu Wang, owner of the Chinese restaurant Wen Hua House in Brüne, Norway, recalled the shooter who is now feared by defenders around the world, he told a completely different side of him and showed his true character.
“He’s been eating here with his family since he was a kid,” she said.
Even today, whenever Haaland returns to his hometown, he will not choose a five-star luxury restaurant, but go straight back to Wen Hua House.
His favorite dish to order is:
Sweet and Sour Chicken
Roast Duck
Despite his global reputation, Wang Huizhu said that Haaland is still very polite and humble towards others. When fans recognize him having a meal, he never refuses and always takes time to sign autographs and take photos for everyone.
He also quietly gave the restaurant two autographed jerseys, one of which is now carefully framed and proudly hanging on the restaurant wall.
