F.O.O.D. pt 1

Was caught up in extreme buzyness lately. All sort of documents continue to pile up on my table which makes it looks exactly like a mini dumpsite, and i'm the dumpster diver who professionally working day in and out under the pile.

Blogging is a luxury for me nowadays. Anyway to filling up the void of my absence, am uploading all the photos of my culinary experience in Chong Qing.

This was taken in the weird french maid authentic chinese cuisine restaurant


Pork with very yummy yam paste, wired spicy tomato-ish sea cucumber soup


Pork with pumpkin, mixed vege


Pak Choy, roasted chicken, steam fish in lots and lots of chili and ginger


Cashew nuts with Mixed Vege, Chong Qing famous spicy steamboat


long bean, sze gua and fruits platter for my Vegetarian Indian colleague

And many many more dishes (at least another 10) which i didnt have the chance to shoot the photos. Well, i was all dressed up in suit and its funny to act like a Kampung girl right?

We had our dinner at a very rare Buddhist Vegetarian restaurant. It was so rare that we need to travel across the rivers and valleys to reach the place. Basically, Chong Qing-ians are all meat eaters and in the end they (the host) were having so much fun eating the food (Only to confess later that supper will be definitely a carnivorous meal).


The exterior of the restaurant and Garden salad


imitation of meat (ribs form and whole chicken), i think its made of soy, but definitely yummy soy


The imtation again, the cold plates and the california roll

Again, there are at least another 10 more dishes and although this time i'm more tourist dressed/friendly, the waitress stopped me from taking the photos as their restaurant is so exclusive, mysterious, and 'photo'hibited.

The afternoon i reached Shanghai, i was so tired that i ordered a plate of beef fried rice through room service. Nothing to shout about.


But where is my spoon???

To be continue....
