We are guests in a home - a hot pot - delicious meal. Behind you can see the kitchen sink. Then to the left is what was their balcony- now kitchen - a short cabinet at each end. Two burner electric counter-top stove, a fridge and microwave. A western cook would have a time with this.

Server pouring our tea. By the way - many of the tea's we had were made from all sorts of plants/flowers. all very good.

We each had our own small hot pot - It was excellent. That's beef, the green - is spinach noodles

Here the cook is preparing to carve our Peking Duck - we watched it go into the wood bruring oven (they frost pre-cook the birds) for browning. You put it in a small tortillia (soft) and add spices and sauce.

Yummy but we passed on this selection of sea food. They will stick it on a stick and deep fry it.

This was a street vendor - it like a crepe' then something added to the centre.
Overall we really enjoyed the different foods we tried. S. mastered the chop sticks.

the food looks interesting...when I was in Kenya I ate an octopus straight out of the ocean...well cooked first but tentacles and all... I figured hey while in rome!!!
hehe but I would draw the line on bugs and snakes and pets!!!!
Great pictures, I kept checking for an update and now you have 3!
What a great trip you must have had.
Aren't digital camera's great!
My son and I are enjoying this. He loves the tile mural and the octopus (or is it squid) photos.
Isn't the service SOOO much better than what you've experienced in any eastern European country....
;-)
I'm not that adventurous when it comes to food...I wonder if hubby would have tried any of this food.
