Lunch at Jia Jia Tang Bao
|
|
|
|
|
Jia Jia Tang Bao, our lunch destination.
| The menu. Yes, there's an 81 RMB item (compared to most items which are
around 10 RMB). The 81 RMB item is pure crab meat steamed dumplings
(chun2 xie4 fen3 tang1 bao1).
| Pork dumplings.
| Pork-and-crab dumplings. These had only a little crab; the only
difference between the pork and the crab was the quality (i.e., flavor)
of the broth.

Flying to Xi'an
|
|
|
|
The high-speed maglev train I took to the airport.
| PVG terminal one. (PVG = Pudong = Shanghai's largest, international
airport.)
| Dinner on my flight to Xi'an: pork with rice, plus watermelon, a package
of pickled radishes to put on rice, a tea egg, some mushrooms (wood
ear?), and a soft, fluffy dinner roll (better than any I've had on
flights in America).
