foot/dish
day 117: 西安 (Xi’an) = 0km
Wanna see my foot?
I’m afraid there’s actually not that much to see, it’s just itchy as hell:
So anyways I stayed in my hotel room on the 24th floor almost all day:
I had a good serving of 宫保鸡丁 (kungpao chicken) and ate around the red things:
Wimp that I am.
Later that night, my friends took me out to a special restaurant:
A special restaurant with a special dish:
Can you tell what this is?
Here’s the video:
You should know what I’m talking about if you are either Chinese or you understand German.
Everyone else… take a wild guess!
By the way, a common name for the thing is 金钱菜 (jinqiancai - “money dish”), because it looks like the coins used in ancient China:
The ones with the hole in the middle.
Soundtrack: Body Count - “Evil Dick”
—total: 1565,8km

OK, I’m going to have to plead the dumb American. What were you eating? It looks like something Wanda would cook! “Of course, individually one at a time.”

Lieber Christoph- Schon’Deine Kräfte!-der Weg ist das Ziel!
Was sind schon zwei Wochen… Wer weiß, was noch alles passiert! Immer erst wieder 100% fit- DANN weiter Power!
Es wär’schade, wenn Du wegen so einer Lapalie, die sich, unausgeheilt verschlimmert, Deinen Trek irgendwann abbrechen müßtest.

is it the sliced reproductive organ of a donkey? a very unlucky donkey? is this supposed to increase one’s sexual stamina? or does it make it easier for you to carry your heavy load?

unsere Ulli: Hehe, ich dachte ich krieg Mecker für die kulinarische Extravaganz?
MD: thanks.
Marvin: Oh, believe me, she would definitely not cook this one!
andy gerber: dank dir.
John: Exactly and precisely. It’s in fact supposed to have a positive effect on one’s sexual whatever. How did you know?
Steven: 好的!
Maggie: Glad you like it. I’ve been to Canton before, and I liked it very much (especially 湛江!) - but this time I won’t make it there…
