Peking Duck, xiao long tang bao (Shanghai steamed buns), and tie ban niu rou (iron skillet beef) all up there. Also have a thing for roast pork buns (cha sha bao).

Yea, so I’m currently going out with this Chinese girl. I think she’s really sweet… Post #22
I'm a really, really fussy eater, anything that looks strange at all I won't touch so with Chinese I basically have chicken balls, chips and egg fried rice, unless my mum buys the crispy duck, that's the only dish I have so that must be my favourite.

Yeah bao is brilliant. Always called it pow though. Make sure you don't get mashed up cardboard in it though!

I spent a summer in Beijing in 98, and my first morning there, I took breakfast at a ramshackle sidestreet xiaolong bao place right outside my hotel. It wasn't really a restaurant, just a kitchen set up with some chairs. Dirt cheap, obviously. Food was fine, but as I was sitting there, enjoying it, a little boy around 2 comes walking up to the place, naked from the waist down. He goes up to the pile of dirty dishes by the side of the place and starts whizzing on them. That was a sign that we weren't in New York anymore.
Forgot about yang rou chuanr (Xinjiang mutton kebabs) which were sold all over Beijing at roadside grills each night. Very spicy, and they were great with a beer on a hot night.

Yeah even in a place like Singapore, although on the main island it's fine, when I went to Pulau Ubin they have all these restaurants when you get off the boat. Went for a leak and you basically just **** on the floor, with the drain running out to the main kitchen. Then they had all the fish they were chopping up just lying there. Probably all covered in ****. Lucky I'm not a fussy eater.
