Snacktime in Beijing




a Yanjing beer, a bag of fish flavored chips, and some fried peas. Yum.still life with Yanjing and Lays
An evening that involves a local brew, fried peas, fish flavored potato chips, and Chinese character flashcards, is an evening well spent.

The potato chips (tasted for the most part like bbq flavored chips in the US, with a hit of fish) and the beer (weak but refreshing) are not items I regularly consume, but I’ve been adding another 6-7 flashcards a night. Perhaps by the end of the year I’ll reach some level of useful Chinese literacy.

And there’s nothing wrong with fried peas!
