It's Happy Belly Time!

After our experiences abroad, we are tired of re-inventing the "what to order or eat" wheel in China. Tired of being unable to eat at that cool looking hole in the wall mom n pop joint because they don't have picture menus? Tired of asking the waitress for her recommendation and being sad that you get pig's brains instead? Then you've come to the right place. Just jot down the most appealing dishes to you, take them to your local fine eating establishment, and finally relax and enjoy a 好吃 (hao3 chi1) meal.

Stir Fried Pulled Noodles

Chinese: 炒拉面
Pinyin: Chao3 La1 Mian4

with beef and green veggies (qing1 cai4)

a happy consumer

a better view of the egg, tomatoes, and other goodies in there


freshly pulled noodles (distinctive of Chinese Muslim foods) stir fried in amazingly spicy tomato goodness. cheap, fast, and a true local dish. these pics were taken in Nanjing and i've had a hard time finding a similarly good counterpart in Beijing. better luck is probably had in Ningxia and other parts of China with more Muslims.
