You might wonder (or not) what have I been doing in SH the last couple of days?
#1: I am happy to say that I’m over with jet lag! Being jet lagged for a week is not fun, but it’s not end of the world either, specially when I’m on vacation I’m allowed to sleep whenever I want
#2: I’ve been meeting with friends and family…. eating a lot of CORNS!!! Yes. I’m having at least 2 big corns per day!
Talking about being obsessed
#3: I’ve been doing a lot of shopping! Coats, skirts, scarfs, etc.
This meal was prepared by my favorite untie. She knows me well and made many vegetarian dishes!

assorted mushrooms with fresh bamboo

salt boiled shrimp

water celery with smoked tofu

bok choy

smoked and fried fish, a typical Shanghai dish

chinese greens with bamboo and fresh shiitake

pork belly with chestnut cooked in a red sauce

assorted mushrooms, fresh bamboo salad

It was an amazing meal~~~ My untie cooks the best homemade food ever, even better than my mom
She’s like my second or chosen mom. I’ve stayed with her family many times and she always took care of me
This second meal was at a fusion restaurant with 3 primary school friends.
fruit and veggie salad with a sour sauce

sauteed cabbage with bacon and carrots

squid packet covered by almond

sauteed greens with shrimp sauce

rice bowl with shiitake, chicken and poached egg

casserole of tofu, mushrooms and cheese

spicy frogs with peanuts

for dessert we shared a mango pudding

4 girls, 8 dishes and 3 hours talking!
I have a lot more food pictures! Stay tune!
