The sign over the seafood restaurant around the corner from our hotel. I’m glad to see Americans aren’t the only ones that screw up the translations. This should make all the frat boys with “Stupid White Person” tattooed on their biceps feel better.

No Panda Express. But there was a place called something like Zho’s 5 Yuan Chicken, which has got to be close.
All the food here is insanely cheap. We had lunch at a little local restaurant. A giant crock of soup, large fried rice, huge bowl of noodles, and 6 big dumplings for 67 yuan, or about $7. I love this place!
