It's finally sunny and bright.
It was the perfect weather for a picnic last weekend - Abhi and I headed to Chaoyang park with our mini picnic basket and went for a nice long walk around the park...Though not too many blossoms yet...
I'm observing lent this month- staying away from meat - 40 days up until Easter. It's not easy being in the Jing especially when all you can see around is the irresistable Chinese food!
Talking about food - the foodie in me can't help but blog about two places we tried out last month.
Baoyuan Dumpling Restaurant at Liangmaqiao - This place is a dumpling haven! From the regular dumplings to exotic ones to colorful ones.
Abhilash and I shared 36 dumplings(12 dumplings in one portion) just between the two of us and it cost us just 50kuai! The restaurant also has a regular menu and you cannot help but notice the staff and their colorful ponytails. They are quite friendly and do speak a little English - Don't worry,you'll survive! the menu has English :-)
Stumble Inn at the Village- It looks a lot like one of our previous fav place 'Rickshaw' with the pool table and the dart board. Now that Rickshaw's closed down you'll probably run into us in here.
We loved the Beer batter fried Fish and Chips and the Jenga Chunky Chips. They have an event everyday and we usually drop by on Fridays when they are serving free shots on the hour every hour :-)
My next post will be after Easter...So here's wishing you all a lovely Spring!
Am gonna be keeping my camera handy - will def post the pics :-)
