a Chinese lunch vs. an MPK lunch

September 23rd, 2004 stevel

My dad arrived back in Beijing today from the US (he works here most of the year), and we had lunch at the CyberTower building where he works, which happens to be the tallest building in Beijing (at the moment).

We had lunch on the 36th floor (the very top floor) at this fancy ritzy Chinese restaurant that apparently is renowned for its abalone. This is probably some of the priciest real estate to operate a restaurant from in Beijing. We had a delicious 7 course lunch, for an exorbitant cost of…. 130 yuan. That’s $16 US. $8 a person.

Hell, I’ve spent more than $8 on lunch at the Sun Menlo Park cafeteria.

I love China…
