My friend Jeremy has so kindly agreed to do a little food-photo exhibition here on my blog. I hope you’d enjoy his photos; his take on China’s food – which could either intrigue you or leave a bad taste in your mouth. 
So be warned before you proceed to scroll down any further.
“Situated next to the Great Wall museum at Badaling, the la-mian shop offers a refreshing, warm broth to the chilly Great Wall weather.”
“Fried Starfish. One of the many quirky street food sold just ten minutes away from the Wangfujing subway station.”
“Sea-horse on a stick. You won’t find this anywhere else. Wangfujing station.”
“When I heard that the Chinese eats anything that crawls, they weren’t kidding. Insect feast galore! Wangfujing station.”
(The next photo is not related to food but I couldn’t resist putting this photo in 
)
“A native Yunnan boy. Cute; the day he first met his dog.”
“Ah.. Had this in Yunnan. The dish in the middle is beer-fish. A definite must try in Western China.”
Are you now inspired to go to China to try these out for yourself (not the boy please)?

Amsie,
Heh, both times I visited China I had real problems working out what I was eating and it was a good way to lose weight:)
It looks the same now.
While I’ve always found what you’re eating in Singapore interesting and appealing, I can’t say the same for most Chinese food.
Insects..ulp!
