This Hunan-style restaurant has an extensive menu I would have explored further, if I weren't headed in a few hours for Shanghai. Given my uncertainty over the sleeper train's onboard facilities, I limited myself to a plateful of "ants climbing trees" (Y18), a traditional Western Chinese dish of vermicelli with minced pork. Washed down with a draft mug of "yellow fresh beer" (Y12); "black fresh beer" is available to accompany heartier entrees.

Dave,
This isn't so much a comment about that particular dish.. as it is about the site.
The site is AMAZING!!! I was trying to find some info for some family friends who are traveling to Beijing and Shanghai! I was blown away by the pictures and descriptions. As a fellow Foodie..
I SALUTE YOU!!! I may need to visit China again!! :-)
Can't wait to check out the Shanghai section.
