Q: Favourite hangover food in China?
I think mine is gongbao jiding (only from my local gaifan place though), but I'm open to more possibilities.
Omelete deluxe from Kiwi Cafe, HK Gardens, Qingdao. Be sure to ask for anchovies and black sauce. Having that will allow you to get pretty much straight back on the horse.

Dontcha just luv Danny's cooking? Man, I'm bummed. He's closed for CNY...
royceH:
Yeah I bet he's gone back to NZ to talk his wife into coming back to China. Or perhaps I'm wrong. The thing is, if I was there I could ask him. His English is excellent and he was always happy to speak candidly. A bonzer bloke...would make a good Aussie.
Not a food, but a drink. HuaShanShui. Volcanic water, or bubbly water. Before I go to bed, I down a bottle. In the morning I down a bottle. Throughout the day, I drink it. It really helps the uncomfortable feeling in your stomach and gets you to burp a lot. The problem, real volcanic water in China is a bit pricey. I buy a box every now and than to keep at the house. 60 RMB for my favorite brand of 24 bottles.
A litre of tap water, 600 megs of Ibuprofen, and a cuppa. Espresso mud. (The coffee spoon literally stands on its toe in the mug!) A shit, shower and shave and I'm good to go for another glorious day in paradise!
(The runs come later...)
Paulberger:
Yea, what's with the runs?!? In America, after a night of drinking, I never got the runs... Here though... OMG.. here....
Red_Fox:
@Paul: Yeah, man. I don't know. I'm still researching it. Ha ha. Seriously. I've even spoken to a biologist about it. It's something to do with stomach enzymes and perhaps tainted junk we consume here that wreak havoc with our digestive and GI systems. It is a worry, frankly.
A massive omlette with brown sauce, onions, tomato and lots of garlic.
All washed down with multiple cups of milky, sugary tea...
In fact, the best and most sensible thing to do is to get a hair of the dog into you. A time honoured method of dealing with a hangover.
