Beijing Vegetarian Food!

Fat Yu stay many days in Beijing!  Even see old friend, Mister Gao!

Mister Gao just return from Buddhist retreat!  Many days not speaking!  But now can speak!  So we go to lunch!

Even though he now speak, Mister Gao still no eat the meat! So we go to local restaurant and order only vegetable dishes!

We have eggplant!  (Even though no look like egg!)  And bean curd shreds!  Look like noodle!

Must admit - when I know that we only eat vegetable, I am very disappoint!  But restaurant have Fat Yu favorite noodle!  No pork!  And I am very excited again!

Restaurant serve plain noodle with sauce and vegetable over on the side!

Fat Yu have to mix himself!  But no matter!  Mister Gao mix the noodle!

Sauce is very dark and salty - like Shanghai food but no sweet!  Vegetable very crispy and fresh!  No wonder Fat Yu favorite!  Is best of the both worlds!

I Am Fat Yu!

Beijing Roast Duck!

Fat Yu go to Beijing many times!  Very like Beijing food!  But only once have Beijing famous roast duck!  Aiya, is too expensive!

But this time Fat Yu go for work!  Someone else pay for duck!  So we go to most expensive duck restaurant!

But cannot have only duck!  Too many duck!  So first order squirrel fish!

Says look like squirrel!  But Fat Yu never see squirrel like this!

Doesn't matter!  Is very delicious!  Sweet like Shanghainese like!

But now is main events!  Chef bring in whole duck and cut right at table!  Very beautiful!  And every piece has both meat and skin!  Is very full of skill!

But, wait for a minute!  They take rest of duck away!  Is still good meat on that bone!  And Fat Yu wife can make soup!  Is very waste!  But doesn't matter!  Fat Yu not paying!

Fat Yu get his own dish of sauce and vegetable!

Fuwuyuan offer to make Fat Yu's pancake!  But Fat Yu make own pancake!  Fat Yu like very simple - just sweet sauce and onion!

Fat Yu must admit, is very delicious!  Duck is very juicy and pancake very soft!  But can also have with crispy sesame bun!

(Eh, Fat Yu prefer pancake!  Fat Yu classic man!)

But of course I eat both!  Why?!




I Am Fat Yu!
