So Many Fun Things Since Last Time!!

Its been along time since I updated you on my adventures out here.

Ok first thing, I would not survive out here if it weren't for Shaolong Bao...an essential in any Chinese diet. Not healthy at all but this little delicious steamed soup dumpling will blow your mind. Think of it as a sister to a pot sticker but with soup and pork inside...you can never go wrong with that combo!

Now onto SPICIER things! :D Sichuan HOT POT!!
My absolute favorite food in China so far! You'll be sweating the whole time your eating this meal but grantee you will be loving it soo much you will be smiling the whole time!

Everyone orders their individual Hot Pot soup base which is served over an open FIRE and BLAZING hot.

Next you order FAMILY STYLE...lamb, beef, cuddle fish, shrimp balls, string mushrooms, noodles, heads of lettuce, peppers, etc....
....here is the best part....THROW IT ALL IN!!


Now GO FISHING! So entertaining because you are always finding new things in your soup you completely forgot were in there.

                                                 

See I told you.... NOTHING but SMILES...
                                                


Ok Ok enough of Shanghai...Lets talk about a THE VEINCE OF CHINA......XITANG...
a beautiful lil water town a little north of Shanghai.

Tiny cobble streets, boat rides, cafes, and lots of GREAT LOCAL FOOD!

Well that all for today! Until next time!!
