For its preservable (high content of oil and sugar) quality, legend goes that a muslim called Zhangqian took Tanghuoshao as a wise food choice for the hot weather when going on a pilgrimage to Mecca.
Both of them locat in that same supermarket, where sets a snack area consisting of several Muslim snack brands including the two. The address and phone number listed are just the supermarket's. You only need to find the Market to ask for 大顺斋 & 力发源.
Just wondering if the addresses were correct above?
The first two have the same address and phone number listed.
Clearly I need to get to the Niujie Muslim Supermarket ASAP.
Does this snack have roots in Muslim culture?
thanks for all advice,

I had the same thought. What is creative about doing yet another steak house that simply happens to be 13 floors higher than the one across the street?
As impressive as China Grill is, it took months before people even started going there. With all the hype about CW3, and the fact that it is on the "right side of the street", perhaps this one will take off a bit sooner, but they are not going to be selling out 3 months in advance because of a kitchen full of Australian steaks and an even better view of Beijing's pollution.
i love the friendship cream. i bought it for 2.5 kuai and it got rid of some eczema that was forming on my hands. a little goes a long way since it can be a bit greasy if you're putting on gloves but it's easily my new favorite moisturizers.
Hm, don't I recognize this concept? Yes, it's exactly the same as China Grill and China bar at the top floors of Hyatt.
And I think he will be very disappointed about the bookings at the restaurant. Comparing Beijing to New York is just proof that he does not know China and how it works here.
If I'm not mistaken, this is a cut-and-paste job on a rather more extensive interview that Mr. Tihany gave to several Beijing publications simultaneously. A couple of these questions were ones I put to him. Few of them were Mr. Monroe's. Would be nice if he and Agenda would give credit where credit's due.
I had something similar happen to me when a friend was moving out of her apartment.
My friend called me over to help her move since the crazy landlady was ranting and raving and hanging around and just generally making things difficult.
To make a long story short, we were basically held hostage at the apartment all night until my friend agreed to pay nearly 1,000 rmb to get the landlady and her husband to let us leave. And did the police do anything about the landlady physically assaulting my friend and I? Of course not! Not even when it happened in their presence.
At least we got out alive and ok, but being at the mercy of a crazy/disturbed person is truly frightening.
I hate this stuff! Why is it that Chinese can create a problem and we foreigners must pay this "compensation"? A similar thing happened to me. It seems that people just wait to create a problem and even if you act like a saint, you still must pay for their foolishness? We have a saying, "What goes around, comes around."
Yes, things like this makes me hate living in China at times. They attack their own Chinese people if they side with the things that are right. They shout at them, "You are Chinese" and try to make them feel bad. People who did not see a thing will get involved. It is just a shame. I don get it, how can China ever truly develop when you have shameless people always grubbing for money. In this country where "Face" is all important, it seems that they are the "Thick-Faced" irresponsible individuals that we must pacify.

Re: Hot Chocolate: Svetlana Lustina Celebrates the Club's ...
Nice place, indeed. Nice atmosphere, just the music is not necessarily my thing, but sometimes the DJ actually puts something that you want.
But I am really wondering how those bars are chosen by Thebeijinger...Guys, guys, guys....

I wonder how this interview was originally conducted, in English or in Russian?
Re: My Beijing Christmas in Jail
Unfortunately for the participants in this account, the incident was all too real
Re: My Beijing Christmas in Jail
The incident happened last Christmas, it should have been noted in the post.
