Wheezy Wednesday

I walked out of my hotel room this morning and was met with a smell that was a cross between a campfire and burning chemical plant. Outside it looked overcast but it became apparent that it was just a really bad air day in the city.



At lunch we ditched the company cafeteria and made visit to a vegetarian restaurant in an old Hutong next to the office. Their speciality --- vegetarian dishes made to look like meat. Here's the faux fish:

It was all pretty good and the owner was a charming older lady. However, I felt compelled to eat some Doritos later in the day.

This evening we hosted our Chinese business partners at the hotel for an American style banquet (which meant buffet). I think I prefer the Chinese style where they wait on you and the dishes come by on the rotating table!
