When you follow a local person in China with a little money you will almost always find a great meal. Our host for our day of business meetings in Hangzhou (the owner of ZheJiangShangYuan) led us to a great restaurant for lunch. We had another feast for approx $5 per person.
Round tables in China emphasize the importance of community. Most restaurants have large round table for eight to fourteen persons. Two large tables are perfect for us.
Table one
Table two
Table two got involved in a competition of eating the very spice peppers common in China. This is Jeff's portion to eat.
Rachel eating her portion, with Allison taking a picture and Abby pondering the meaning of this.
Jeff eating his four peppers, with our host looking on. I wonder what she's thinking.
A sign in the men's bathroom. Pretty clear.
