Behind the massive barbed-wire fence surrounding 'The Peoples Public Joy and Happiness Center' next door is the ruined, burned-out hulk of what was once Beijing's only attempt at a 'fast food' restaurant, before it was destroyed in it's infancy by angry mobs shouting 'Down With Capitalist Dogs!'You™ wrote:Is it hard to get coffee in China?

I know, everyone has a Starbuck's.
I had Kung-Pao Chicken and fried wontons for lunch Friday. I don't suppose anyone eats that in China but I love it - especially if it's really spicy and has lots of vegetables.
There's a Starbucks across the street (next to the PizzaHut) and Kung Pao chicken is a neighbourhood fav! In fact I cook it and possess three different recipes for it!
The biggest thing to piss me off so far though is that damn new Wal Mart being built down the street -- the dust from the construction site gets my curtains all dirty. 
There have been BBQs all up and down my street tonight and the fireworks are still going on at 05:30 am -- I shite you not -- these peeps love their fireworks -- because it's 'Mid-Autumn Festival' now. Eat your Moon Cakes yet?
So interesting - perceptions. I ought to post some pics.
