Wuqing is the industrial sector of Tianjin. Downtown Wuqing is lively around 7 p.m. and dies around 9:30. Other than going shopping for necessities during the day or going out eating, there is not much else to do. Fortunately I like to eat (lol). Tianjin places a heavy focus on seafood, due to Tianjin's proximity to the sea. Prominent menus include the Eight Great Bowls (八大碗), a combination of eight mainly meat dishes. It can be further classified into several varieties, including the rough (粗), smooth (S: 细 / T: 細), and high (高). The Four Great Stews (四大扒) actually refers to a very large number of stews, including chicken, duck, seafood, beef, and mutton.
A group of staff and I made our way to downtown Wuqing by “Bong-Bong”. Emma and Mark suggested the restaurant where the picture is taken. It was nice to have finished a long week. It was truly a celebration of completing our first week of classes. Everyone was in good spirits. We ate well and toasted our success.
What a great group of people.
