Daily Chinese Life

People in China seldom make any own breakfast because they are always "busy" and besides it's cheap to eat outside. Another reason is that they don't know how to make any food themselves...

Every morning there are a lot of "food carts" by the road selling milk, bread, tea, cookies, chinese pancakes (1 egg + some spices with dough). People line up here and wait for their turn...The pancakes are about 30 cents, used to eat them when I came to Beijing but got kinda tired of them and prefer my own morning porridge with coffee :)

There is a cantina just next to the office, food there is 1,2 euros and you get all kinds of stuff. Reminds me of "Intti Bata" (finnish army food) somehow...The locals here still think it's expencive to use 12 RMB on food...when i told them that a lunch in Finland is close to 9 Euros there were like WOOOOW.
