Food adventures, French concession and Huang Shan prep

Wah! Long time no post. 

Ima jump straight into it!

Food. Street food. Every night at 9pm the street food vendors come out at Shanghai University West Gate with there bikes; it is on their bikes where you will see the hot plates, pots and coal barbecues that they use to cook up a storm. And oh man, when I heard there was a street food vendor that had halal meat I was ecstatic! Seriously, when you come to China you have to do the street food experience, and with this Muslim street vendor and his existence I could ! Woot! So any night I couldn't be bothered to "cook" or eat out at a restaurant I would wait till 9pm to have an amazing skewer feast. Que pictures:

Our favourite skewer guy - look at all the options! :D

cake man - makes tiny yet amazing cakes for only 5 yuan a bag

As you can see, all his cooking gear is on his bike (Y)

We also have our fruit man who is out at West Gate every night. Very useful for my 11pm pineapple cravings!

11:30pm - never too late for pineapple!
A group of us went to the French concession at Dapuqiao, just like Xintiandi, this place had some cool alleyways and an amazing tea shop!! I need to return so I can buy everything!



^Cute tins at the tea store!^

All the Australian girls met up in order to organise our trip to HuangShan, the Yellow mountain, so we all got together at the girls apartment and had an amazing home cooked meal by Heidi and Tanya! Here is a group photo of the Shanghai family:
