Day 66 - I never had a dog...

... not until now! Wintertime is coming and this is the traditional time for Chinese people to eat dog - at least for some, because dog heats you up they believe. So, also in one of the canteens they sell dog. Dog with rice for 5 Yuan. But just a small portion though - I am not used to dogs.
The meat was spicy and heavily flavored. So it was hard to figure out the unique dog taste. It is close to lamb I would say. Not so nice: all the bones left in the dish...
So, now I had a dog.
Conclusion: In the right marinade it could be delicious - in the style I had it it is a flop.


Tomorrow we will go with some classmates to the more original scenes of the Great Wall, about 70 Km north of Beijing, we'll stay there overnight and party a little bit - hopefully ;-)

Stay tuned!
