They took us to lunch ... My first lunch in China!!! They take us to these convention-style restaurants, so not really a restaurant where local people go. But I think the food is authentic?!
We usually take up 4 tables like this!
It's a round table with a lazy Susan. They bring so much food and half the time we have no clue what it is!! My favorites at lunch were mystery meat with these glazed carrots. The carrots were amazing. Same with the eggplant!
Chinese coke
I cheat and use a fork. I'll get to chop sticks eventually!
It's raining and super humid (and 80ish)
Yummy! I want to try some new food, especially Chinese!!!
ReplyDeleteDid they bring food to you on carts? It looks kinda like a dim sum place a Chinese friend of my dad's took us to in Honolulu once. But yours is pretty darn nice!
ReplyDeleteNo, no carts. Everything is lazy-susan style ... they bring out as many dishes as we have people (at least, usually more) and we just grab a little of everything.
ReplyDeleteYou never know how many dishes are coming, you just serve yourself whatever looks good to you.
There were things I didn't wanna try (mystery meat and weird tofu) ... but there was always plenty I liked and did eat. Lots of veggies!
Usually, the last thing out was watermelon - that became our "we must be done" signal.
