Wandering the neighborhood


Today Angelica showed me her favorite pastry restaurant. It's on a side street off Heping East Road. But I got so turned around while we were walking that I don't have a good idea of exactly where it is. Will update later. The specialty is the flaky pastries. They are stuffed with red bean paste or black sesame paste, seasonal salted green veggies or meat. They also serve a mean fried chicken and a steamed plain bun that is then deep fried. All so interesting and tasty.

I was so stuffed that I couldn't eat dinner.

I found some interesting greens at the little organic store. Can you guess what they are? I've labelled them in the album, so you can go check the answer.
