Forgot my camera...again. Went out with a group of 10 this time. Took the bus to a big night market. My buddies Nick, Em, and I went to eat some street meat, while the rest of them went into some restaurant and got special treatment since they're white.
Anyways, "shao chi" (small eats or street snacks) are more or less Chinese tapas. We chose our raw meat skewers, skewered veggies and skewered mushrooms, and the lady fried them up on a long barbeque line filled with hot coals. I got chicken feet to the interest (or disgust) of my comrades (wode tongshi). Fun times, good food, and dirt cheap.
After eating, Em, Nick and I played pool outside in an area with 30 outdoor pool tables. Surrounded by Chinese university students. Chinese university-aged men = chain smokers. Happy day.
Sounds hen bang (like great fun). I love ye shi (night markets)too. Sounds like the one you went to is much larger than the one in Richmond. Not sure about your spelling ... I think you mean xiao chi for snacks (not shao chi).
