Two Teas I've Never Tried Before
Chocolate tea. Tasted like a mixture of tea and ice chocolate.
Honey lemon black tea. Taste very … delicious. ;-)
Long Noodles
I’m getting used to chopsticks but this was hardly eatable. The noodles were too long and slippery.
Another Restaurant
Dirty glasses and a foil on top of the tablecloth.
But the food was good:
Small Noodles
I’ve heard that these noodles should be better than the larger ones but couldn’t tell the noodle man to make me some. Today he was cooking them for a woman so I had the chance to also try some. They are good.
Gourmet Restaurants
Why is there a dog on the sign?
Lunch Off Campus
Chinese Arabic food. Wow, this was really good.
Cleanup
I seem to eat the same things every day. Rice and something green. This time there was just a small piece of meat in it, a fruit fly.
A classmate chose tofu and egg.
The problem: The egg contained a larger quantity of meat which ended up here, together with all the other unappetizing things that have been lying on our table:
I’m sure they’ll take care of it.
Cleaned chopsticks.
Salad, Floor and Banana Bread

A New Day at Tongji
Noodles with tofu. I took two bites of the tofu and decided to only eat the noodles.
Mao in front of the library. It was the first time I noticed that the two towers of library seem to hover above the lower building.
Old City at Night
Fuxing Road divides the old city.
Old house, new sign.
Wumei
It’s not possible to take a pizza into Wumei. They put it in a locker and you get a ticket like this one.
I’m not the heaviest person on the planet but this scale is definitely wrong.
Not a plastic bag.
Schnaps with 50 % by volume…
“Fresh”, alive.
The first things I bought for my new room.
They like (red) stamps here. It was the first time I’ve gotten one on leaving a supermarket.
Dangerous Tea?
Tea that you get for free at most restaurants (if they don’t serve hot water). I’m still unsure whether it’s bottled or tap water. The tea makes it hard to taste the chlorine but I often think they just cook the tap water. That might kill bacteria but not remove the chemicals.
It’s also not so easy to drink only the fluid not the tealeaves. A Chinese friend suggested to blow on the surface. Works. Kind of.
