since you ask for price and quality, i think you should go to supermarket, there have many kinds of cooking tools you can choose. if you think it still expensive. you can go to local Wholesale market ,there price could be more cheap ,but the quality is poor.

Where are you staying? Shanghai? Beijing? Let us know and we can be of more help.

Most major cities have a large market made for hotel and restaurant supply that are open to everyone. They are great places to pick up heavy duty kitchen stuff for cheap or like a case of wine glasses. Like Dongjiao market in Beijing as Toad said.

Why buy cooking equipment? If you look like your picture you can't cook, never have. Why start now. I know the type, burnt offerings for dinner. Hmmm is carbon in the three major food groups??
Beside I will cook for you, just look me up. My speciality is breakfast. Cool Cool

smileyI sold  Cutco Cutlery back in the states. That was the number one leading cutlery brand in all of North America: Canada & The United States. I saw one similar to the knives we sold but it was just a knockoff of the original product. Still it had many of the features that we used which was a full tang, nickle-silver rivets, thermo resin handles and I saw it on sale at a Joy City shopping mall in a japanese style store. If your in Beijing go to the new Joy City shopping mall they will have the cheapest and best quality knives you can find.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
