I distinctly remember that night, I had just received a phone call and others dozed in front of the TV after a hard day ( Fengcheng ). All of a sudden there's the burst of pride and finished the last sip of beer at 11 o'clock in the evening we go out to get something to nibble. The goal was some yangrouchuan (goat kebabs extremely popular in northern China), a beer and a chat .. And then clicks the evening you do not expect, with characters in search of an author and new experiences. We arrive at this little place with open grate and chairs typically Chinese, we sit down and clearly perceive that we are the first foreigners to set foot in that place for a long time. The time to ask what we wanted to eat, to understand that we spoke Chinese, and here the laoban (boss) comes and sits with us.

He previously worked at the factory, then made ​​the leap and opened risorantino, his son is studying at university somewhere in Beijing. We tell ourselves a little ', with the tranquility that a little' reminded me of the chatter over a glass of wine in a late afternoon in Venice. And in the meantime here we are offered cockles, marine creatures of various kinds, dried fish and the like. Apart from the dried everything was "alive" and in the water before finishing on the grid. Except for the grilled fish we had never eaten clams "grilled". So after a quick glance mutual, immediately soothed by the care of our guests, we ate.

We have asked ourselves in what sguazzassero water, or in which they lived before the creatures appear to the gallows. We ate. Everything was delicious, topped with a cold beer unexpectedly. Every time a neighbor, a customer was usually greeted with something like "hey, did you see that guests eat at my restaurant," but everything was very nice. The bad Western mind lurked two big questions, like what we paid, and if we would spend the night (from the digestive point of view). And here we are on the edge of the street food, where customers pay only what they ask for and enjoy what is offered, and where you wake up in the morning in perfect health, happy chatter of the night before.
