back to shanghai early... =)

Day 22 – 13 Aug (Wed)

Travelled back to shanghai today… took the morning train and reached shanghai at around 10+am… decided to have brunch near the train station coz I didn’t really have breakfast… wanted to try their local Chinese fast food chain called 真功夫 but didn’t feel like eating rice… so just ordered a steamed egg which cost 6RMB = S$1.20… quite nice… reminds me of the typical simple homecooked fare of minced meat with egg 肉蛋… =)

steamed egg from 真功夫



well, obviously the egg wasn’t quite enough for lunch, so I juz went to the bk next door to get something… wanted to try something different, so ordered this wrap thingy with chicken and cheese… it was quite alright… but I wont try it again… hahaha… would still prefer the gd ol’ mushroom swiss burger… the meal only costs S$4! =P I wanted to take a proper pic of the meal, especially the wrap thingy since sg doesn’t have it… but apparently, photo-taking’s not allowed at BK! -_-“ so yah…I only managed to take a lousy & blur photo before 1 of the staff stopped me… =(

lousy shot of my bk meal


I rested alone in the shanghai apartment for the rest of the day and felt slightly better in the evening… had dinner with my housemates after they got home… sharnice cooked! Haha… pro… she’s never cooked before prior to this china trip, but now that she’s here, she’s been cooking almost daily for William, louise & herself… I’m usually not around on weekdays, so I don’t get to join them for the homecooked dinner… but well, at least today I had the chance to sample her cooking! =P it was simple but nice… =) just rice, vege, chicken meat thrown into the rice cooker altogether, along with some onions… rice was slightly soggy, but who am I to be picky? It was good enough already… haha… not everyone will cook for me for free… just glad to have homecooked food! =P well, I’m definitely looking forward to the homecooked food back in sg! Pls practise well and cook for me k! *hint hint* =P
