Enjoying some delicacies in a street market in Beijing. My group finished everything but two of the cicadas (in the middle). The scorpion was nicely fried. Note that the Chinese are sticking with the noodles.
I also tried shark fin soup (ok), sea cucumber (good), pigeon (nice) and duck heart (excellent). The Peking duck really does taste better in Peking (even if they call it Beijing).

Nothing better than going native.
Marvelous. Except, John, those are Korean ideograms, not Chinese.
Are you saying the food was better than at Ming's??
Hope you didnt wash it down with a Coke. They do pee pee in it over there
Explanation: I must have inadvertently clicked on "Korean" as my language choice. My entire page was in Korean. John,I thought you had manipulated the Blog. Sorry. (I really haven't lost it yet.) (I don't think.)
Sol-
You must be having flashbacks to your days in Korea. Maybe an extra martini in the evening would take care of that issue.
Bren,
Did you bring home any of those fun lead based toys for the kids?
Of course. I've got a Thomas train with an extra coat of chipping yellow paint for Egan and Will to fight over.
If you think they send bad stuff to our country, just think about what they feed and give to the billion Chinese for half the price.
John-
There is no such thing as an extra martini.
