Shanghai Street Food; I Love Street Food

The street food in Shanghai is unreal.  You can feed yourself for easily less than $2, with food that is guaranteed to taste great: dumplings, fried bread, tofu, noodles, vegetable sesame bread, fruit, etc.  Jim and I have wandered all over the place; we’re utterly amazed.  I love street food, despite it being slightly sketchy.  Check out some photos.

But before photos, I got a bonus story: Christophe knows a guy we call “Noodle Man.”  Noodle Man has a little cart in a little community of other food carts.  He serves up the best street noodles in town, and the dude next to him, “Meat-Stick Man,” serves some MONEY meat scewers.  We had scewered chicken heart.  Ewwwwww!

    That looks tasty! But I have learned to be cautious with things that look tasty, like erasers. But I am sure they aren’t as bad as street dogs.

    Nice photos… at first I thought you were holding some kind of a toy light saber, then I realized it was a skewed chicken heart. Yikes.

    Haha, erasers! I liked glue when I was a kid. Never had paint chips, though.

    Yeah, gross, huh? Haha!
