Food is good

Steamed egg and chive dumplings for breakfast with plum juice. Chilli oil fish which came still boiling in oil to the table; cucumber with peanuts, coriander and sesame oil; cold eggplant with minced garlic and tahini; fried corn and pine nuts; deep fried shredded vegetables wrapped in beancurd skin and crumbed. And all washed down with tea and beer.

Though much of the food is a bit on the oily side, the flavours are varied and interesting. With the help of Gabe the table has been full of tasty treats...and yes, even tasty tofu.

Today is our first venture out by ourselves....should be interesting, though perhaps a little more draining. There are not many tourists walking about and not much English. Time to hit the pavement.
