Something Fishy

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

We arrived in Shanghai today and I've got to say that this city is just obnoxiously big. Something that I've been noticing about Shanghai and the cities we visited around it is the type of dishes served in restaurants. Since Suzhou almost every meal has entailed some sort of fish dish. Not that I have a big problem with this since I do like fish, but seafood is something I can eat only once in a while without getting sick of. It's interesting because almost every meal had the same style of seafood too, we would be served an entire fish, along with some other seafood dishes such as muscles, fish ball soup, dried fish and different kinds of shrimp dishes. I suppose it is like this since these cities are fairly close to the ocean but I thought it was an interesting bit.
