Chinese folks can eat anything…seriously!

A common Chinese proverb says that they can eat everything that has four legs, except tables; everything that flies, except for airplanes; and everything that is found on water, except boats! And that’s 100% true. Here goes few pictures, snapped by my colleague Santo, during his recent trip at Beijing, China. The place is called Wangfujing.

Wangfujing, Beijing, China

The Wangfujing Night Market has a selection of exotic Street food on the Snack Street. Deep fried insects, scorpions, and sea creatures can be found, along with other animals and animal parts not ordinarily consumed as food in the west. But while these exotic snacks can be found, other more common foods, such as Chuanr (meat kebabs, commonly made of lamb) and desserts, such as Tang hu lu, or candied fruits make up the majority of the food sold on the street.

Enjoy! Please don’t blame me if you loose your appetite viewing these pics.
