Beijing Day 3: Dinner at the Dumpling King in Beijing APM
2012-01-17 16:00:00 We did a little shopping after a day at the park and after having lunch before headed back the hotel to rest. There is so much to see and do at the Wangfujing Street. Later on that night, Ben took me out to the Beijing APM Mall to have a late dinner since we already had a late lunch. This one one of Ben favourite restaurants and one he often goes to. The restaurant name is simply called Dumpling King. On one hand we thought it is a Taiwanese restaurant and yet on another hand it could have been a Shanghainese one. Oh, it does not matter. The food was really good. By the time we got there well past 8PM, it was pretty quiet already. Ben said that many Beijing restaurants gets quiet at that time because many people likes to start dinner at 6 or 7PM.

PHONE STACKING
2012-01-12 18:00:00 While we do admit that cellphone tech posts do make their way around here pretty often, this one's a little different. This one's actually about avoiding your phone, especially during dinner with friends. It's called "phone stacking" and here's how it works: everyone places their cellphones facedown on the table (you can stack them for more suspense), then the rules are simple, first person to pick their's up to check for missed calls or messages pays the tab. Sounds easy enough, right? Go for it on the next night out with amigos. We pretty much guarantee a fun time!

Obama Allows Anti-American Song to be Played at State Dinner for China
2011-01-23 21:58:00 -By Warner Todd Huston The Epoch Times has a stunner of a story for January 22. Unbeknownst to most Americans, China insulted the United States right in front of Obama and the world by having its nationalist pianist, Lang Lang, play a Chinese propaganda song that called Americans "jackals" during the Chinese sponsored concert during the recent state dinner in Washington D.C. Chinese nationalists have been hailing this stick in the eye of the U.S. since it occurred at the state dinner on January 19. There is little doubt that Obama knew this was going to happen, but that he had no problem with it fits neatly with his world apology tour, his three years of apologizing for the United...

China Business Dinner Etiquette.
2010-12-31 00:18:00 Nothing really new here, but the International Herald Tribune's Business Navigator section just came out with a concise explanation of the etiquette involved in Chinese business dinners. The article is entitled, "In China, Social Evenings Are Considered Part of the Business Routine," and, among other things, it notes the following: Business dinners are "a very important event." The article does not say this, but I will. If you want to do business with a Chinese company, it really pays to accept their dinner invitation and you should learn the basics of what is, essentially, a ritual. Business dinners on the mainland usually start at 6 or 6:30. The Chinese host sits at the head of the table facing the door. As the company's guest, you should sit "directly across from him if the table is rectangular. If it’s a round table you’ll be seated to his right.” "Paying attention to details...can improve your standing in business negotiations." “Giving fa...

A Bowl Of Crab Soup - Catching Dinner In The "Backyard"
2010-11-08 18:40:00 People I meet when on travels are often wondering whether I am exaggerating when I enthusiastically mention getting our dinner fresh from the dock or the sea. The answer as you can see from the pictures below is no. Not at all. All the possessions in the world will never equate the intense sense of gratitude we feel from being so close to the water and taking some time receiving from the ocean some of its bounty.View from the dock - what we call "the extended backyard".We are indeed lucky to be able to just go catch a dozen crabs on a sunny Sunday afternoon or cast our net during shrimp season to make fresh shrimp and pesto linguine for dinner. Yes. We know. Once that first shrimp hits our lips, we can smell and taste all the depths of the ocean in just one bite. Slightly sweet, a bit salty, strong earthy flavor. It's like that first sip of perfectly cold beer on a sweltering day. Magic.Bailey is one happy puppy!I sort of apply the same feelings to the first soup enjoyed on the fir...
