Week 4 (2 feb @ 簋街)

Gui Jie 簋街 (aka Ghost Street)

in celebration of our first month in beijing, we went to guijie for steamboat. while some of the people had to work, the rest of us met up first to walk the streets of 簋街 and 鼓楼大街. here's some photos taken at the 钟楼 and 鼓楼! of us, happily practising our jumping skils:




after which, we went to a near-by cafe to slack abit, coz there was still two more hours to dinner time. the cafe is called Escape! i drank some hot chocolate, and read a book, titled "Catalput" or something. i shall go find the book and read it again in the near future...


went back to 簋街 around 7pm. it was pretty dark already, and the streets were lit up with neon lights, neon signboards and laterns... colours of all sorts!

the restaurant was quite popular, and table for 11 of us was not easy to get. we had reserved the table, and strolled down the street while waiting. the fragrance of the tasty, barbequed and steamboat food from the restaurants stirred my hunger! so hungry! yum-yum, the tasty fooooood! we returned back to outside of the restaurant, stood by the heater, waiting for our turn:


steamboat food! nice nice nice nice! neatly served plates of meat and vegetables for us to cook. costing only RMB45 = SGD9! and i like the 酸梅汤 served~ :)


group photo outside the restaurant! :)
happy 1st month in beijing!
