A Lot Like Dining Out

This weekend we went to a restaurant that serves “Western Cuisine”.   I mentioned in a post from last year, that I seldom like to go to the so-called Western places in China.  I wasn’t surprised during this outing…the same ol’ same ol’ rang true. 

But one thing that stood out, is that, especially in the promotional product and branded merchandise realms, managing and supervising production from factories is a lot like dining out in China.

Chinese May Feel "Cheated"

Leeds and I had mullet soup for lunch today.  中文名是乌鱼汤。  我们平常这样吃.  一碗汤， 两份菜， 一份肉， 什么的

We normally have a soup everyday along with 2 veggies and a meat.  Our apartment is only about 5 mins from the office so we swing home for lunch.

I think we had dinosaur that night for dinner...

Some thoughts on dining options in China. 

If you come over from the Western world to live in China and continue to eat as you did in the Western world, your food bill will quickly add up.  When living and working in China, why not live and work as the Chinese do?
