Chuanr

Learning Chinese, people often tell you how the Chinese characters are based on pictures so they are easy to remember; like the character for the sun looks a bit like the sun: 日。I was never totally convinced with that example, but these signs show the character 串 'chuanr' and couldn't look any closer to their meaning: meat on a stick. 

Macarons Cheesecake

Had the tastiest desserts and tea at Obolo today, I love that this place is 5 mins from our house but also could probably do with walking more than 5 minutes after one of these crazy cheesecakes. 

(Picture from their website as I forgot my camera.)

Pu'er

Grapejuice is suspicious of the fancy rose pu'er tea

Travel Section and a Kopi-O

Confusing things that begin with the letter 'L'
