In reply to the discussion: If America Doesn't Implement the "Buy American" Vision Now, the 21st Century Will Be a Disaster [View all]GulfCoast66
(11,949 posts)30. I like my food scorching at times so would not fear chengdu.
I love Europe and their food but after a few weeks we always visit a Chinese joint just to give me a spice update!
I only was in Shanghai, Beijing, the Yellow Mountains, and a tea production area relatively close to Shanghai. The wife is asleep so cant ask her where. Realize she worked for almost 3 of the 4 weeks I was there. But I would get up at 7:00, cook us breakfast and spend 9 hours exploring Shanghai.
BTY. The beer there sucks. And its served warm.
Shanghai makes NYC look like Huntsville, Alabama.
