Wangfujing (street market)

Wangfujing ( 王俯井小吃街 )Night Food Market at Beijing

This 100-meter long snack street is open

from 6:00pm to 9:00pm every day. The night market is home to about 100 stalls selling snacks from all over China

For adventurous dinners, it is a food paradise with such unique snacks as

centipedes, lizards, deep fried crickets

available to eat on a stick

The first stall sells Tanghulu, (sugar-coated haws) and fruits on sticks

Each stall has a signboard overhead indicating the stuff to be sold with a pricelist

Each seller wears clean uniforms with red caps

Each stall has a sign hanging at the back with the name of the stall owner

At the first plane Goubuli, at the back inserted on sticks,

hippocampus along with an informative

note about them

About Goubuli (literally dogs don’t pay attention)Is a famous kind of Bāozi,

the Asian equivalent of sandwiches in the West.

With a savory meat (chiken or pork) and

vegetable filling wrapped in dough and steamed, they make a complete

meal that can be eaten on the go without utensils

Sheep’s particular parts, offal soup

Beijing local desserts and their oxidental translations

Since it is a street food market,

you have no table for sitting and eating You are supposed to stand

eating just before the food stalls

A protected line is set to separate the food stalls from the

driving lane

So people feel quite safe eating

along the protected line and

make jokes at turists

Centipedes and insects on sticks !!!

Scorpions and more insects on sticks !!!

Not plastic recipients but Chinese

earthenware containers and

plaited straw or reeds

Seafood and smelly vean curd

Sneak meat with a salat,

always interesting to watch by foreigners

turists

A different culture (probably the older one) and quite another taste for foodThey, as Mexicans, like insects in all forms and shapes, here is an example of the way they are offered, clean, ordered, in sticks and with a touch of color and elegance given by the orange starfish

Seafood

Noodles made with rice flour

and some vegetables

Barbeque, corns and more

All the food stalls are well organized with strict hygiene requirement
