please not that the address in Chinese and pinyin do not match. The one in Pinyin reflects the current location wheres the one in chinese points to the old abandoned location
You are the first person to really come to a conclusion that people should know that a language is learnt through different ways. Not all ways will help you understand a language. We learn our mother languages because of the people we stay with and the locality in which we are. I do not expect a Chinese to teach me Chinese and expects me to speak the way he does. We also have different capacities of learning a language. What people do not know is that it also involves a certain talent. Obviously the second language will always be affected by the first language. Above all that, even being a native speaker of a language does not mean that you know everything about it. That is why it takes one to be a graduate teacher to teach a language even if he or she were a native. This is because teaching involves different dynamics. Your piece was greatly sounding. It can work for a good language novel just like "up and down the stair case". Good narrative piece.

Normally I try not to have drinks in Sanlitun bars, I tried a few times and found out they were fakes, so what is next?? should we abstain from drinking alcohol in Beijing??
Hehehe,
Great to see this debate stretching like a lamian...
Actually it was the photo in the article that reminded me of biangbiang mian. Combined with the hunger in my belly, the result is a comment that triggered some fiery replies. As long as we're all happy with our msg filled dry noodles, i am happy.
And thanks for explaining the youpuo mian and biangbiang mian difference to me.
Good suggestion, but please note this initiative is being run by Beijing Rotaract Club, not the Beijinger. We are simply helping them to publicize the collection. If you follow the link in the post you can forward any suggestions to them directly.
Hi,
I think this is really a good job,.. pls may I suggest that interested people that are willing to collect the cloths within their neighbourhood could drop their contact information to you to make the collections easier. In case the collecting centers are far from others. Besides not just winter jackets but fairly used or new cloths for all season.
regards

Jimmy Page was apparently spotted in Plastered T-Shirts today, so it seems he really is in town for this press conference ...

Thanks for pointing that out, Badr - the pinyin address is indeed correct and we have changed the Chinese to reflect as such. Much obliged.

I recommend home-brew. And if you had any surplus you could probably flog it to a local bar.

Re: Alleyway Gourmet: No Soup For You!
So you're saying biangbiangmian is a subset of youpo chemian, specifically only youpo chemian that uses "flat belt" kudaimian?
So, by extension, all biangbiangmian could also legitimately be called youpo chemian, but not all youpo chemian can be labelled biangbiangmian.
Is that right?
Re: Dig Out Those Old Clothes for Charity!
HI Jameswa,
Quite right - the event does in fact run until January 30. That was a mistake on our part. Apologies - the post has now been corrected.

Re: Alleyway Gourmet: Beijing's Oldest Baijiu Bar
Tom, you don't know how surprised I am to find the article, reporting this state owned restaurant I also photographed it too in September 2009.
Here is the menu:

I didn't order any food there, and hail to your explorative spirit.
Re: Dig Out Those Old Clothes for Charity!
I believe that the event runs until the 30th January not the 13th. Everyone should try to donate something for a good cause.
