Hell no I never eat at McD's. KFC or baijimoa (??). If I'm luck my first meal when I arrive home will be an honest-to-goodness ribeye steak!

  Yeh, Beijing duck is pretty great. I think mine would be that one where you wrap a little bit of meat and some veg (I can't remember which veg, it's been so long) into a pancake and stuff it in your face (not really a description of the dish, rather than the way I eat) before hitting on one of the hostesses (and that wasn't even a requisite of the question, I think i'm pissed). But yeh, that, pancake, face, waitress dish would be mine. F***king love those waitresses man.

Here's a list of things I HAD to eat before I left Beijing when I went there for Christmas:

-Mc Donald's (They don't have the spicy chicken filet burger in France)

-Fat Burger

-Jiaozi

-Rou jia mo and liang pi

-Yoshinoya

-Me mom's cuisine

(Not that much Chinese food, now that I look back...)

 

And the very last dish I ate was something called "Zhen zi mian" or something similar. It's basically noodles in some corn-based porridge, mixed with some sort of Chinese onion that can only be found during winter in Beijing. It is delicious. But the onion-thingies let out a really, REALLY strong smell the next day when you perspire. 

Needless to say, it was a terrible idea to eat that before taking the plane.

I don't remember the last meal I had in China, but I know what I want to eat when I get to Taiwan! I'm really hankering for some 仙草冻, especially since it will be the middle of summer when I get there. I saw on a menu that you can get it in bubble tea, which looks awesome. I'd also like some fresh jujubes (红枣), I love that fruit. I'd basically like to eat almost any Chinese food at this point. There are a lot of foods I miss.

MissA:

You''re heading to Taiwan? Fantastic!

I'm positive I will have a large Cantonese dinner at least 3 or 4 times right before I leave.  I'm hoping at least one of those times is yum cha for breakfast.

The answer #3 to question #3:

 I can't remember, the night before I went for Korean barbecue. I think the night I left we went for beef steak, 1/4'' of tough over cooked meat about 4'' square. The first thing I had when I came home was hamburgers with a nice bakery bun, fried onions, blue cheese and mushrooms.

Since I'm a hippy vegetarian, probably disanxian (fried potato , green pepper and eggplant) or some other boring thing.

My last meal before I left my city was a Uyhgur feast of laghman and samsas.... my actual last meal was some dodgy dumplings at the airport.

 

My first meal home was an epic mother-made lasagna.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
