My last day in Beijing. We did a little shopping at a electronics shopping mall to get a USB stick so that I can bring the photos home. Ben also brought me to Walmart to do some browsing.
We had lunch at a restaurant near the apartment hotel that Ben stayed. This restaurant serves some homey dishes as the name suggests. We had a cold octopus appetizer. It was sweetish and pretty good.
We had a water boiled fish for the main.
The fish served here had been lightly battered and deep fried, unlike those we find in Vancouver.
We also had a pork stew with meatball dish. It was not very good and it looked like a big bowl of mesh.
The pork pieces were skin on.
I like the dessert above made with Chinese Yam with blueberry sauce and raisin. It was creamy. The meal was RMB170 (CAD28).
This concluded my trip to Beijing and Xian.
“Ben also brought me to Walmart to do some browsing.”
Ok, not food-related question. But just curious, do the local Beijing-ers complain that all Wal-Mart does is sell cheap, crappy made-in-China goods ? 😉
Wal-mart there seems better than here – it is like the Superstore.
