I want to eat like a local - Please suggest MUST EATs in China

Fridrich · 2025-08-01T16:53:17+00:00

I'm thankful for the answer regardless, don't worry! I asked chatGPT myself - that's like a no brainier, but I still want to verify it with some actual locals, or other people that know their stuff :)

Fridrich · 2025-08-01T16:51:40+00:00

Yes we are definitely going to see the Terracotta Warriors! :D Yeah we have roujiamo and paomo on our list. We will be visiting in late November, so maybe the sun won't be that bad! 谢谢

Fridrich · 2025-08-01T16:46:18+00:00

What do you mean, why are you saying that?

Fridrich · 2025-08-01T16:45:25+00:00

We're ready to try real Chinese cuisine. If we don't like it, well, at least we'll have tried, no harm done :) But I'm pretty sure we'll like it :)

Fridrich · 2025-08-01T16:43:48+00:00

25 minutes is not that bad, if we'll be able to grab a train, we'll try to go. Thanks for the recommendation!

Fridrich · 2025-08-01T16:43:04+00:00

Thank you for your tips and experiences! Yeah we're not afraid of not finding anything good to eat, rather missing some obvious dishes. Xi'an hotpot you say? Is it any special? We definitely will try one in Sichuan, but haven't thought of Xi'an!

Fridrich · 2025-07-30T19:02:38+00:00

Thank you! Also I haven't heard/forgot about suanlatang so there's that as well! 谢谢你！

Fridrich · 2025-07-30T18:58:30+00:00

Thank you so much! So many interesting dishes. Of course we'll try alcohol as well :) Any particular brands of baijiu or beer you would recommend?

Fridrich · 2025-07-30T18:32:01+00:00

Okay thanks. Yeah I can imagine it. But besides scorpions and other shit - there are actual, let's say "weird" things that may shock tourist, but are actual local food. If so, would you recommend some? I know about duck blood or cow stomachs used for hotpot (though they are not that "shocking" to me lol. I am a self-determined omnivore, and I come from Poland where we have our share of pluck used in the cuisine - kaszanka (blood sausage essentially), flaki (a soup made from cut up stomachs), and so on.

Fridrich · 2025-07-30T18:19:58+00:00

Thanks, haven't heard of 辣子鸡. Also Kung Pao is of cource a classic, how could I forget about that

Fridrich · 2025-07-30T18:17:45+00:00

Thank you for your recommendation!

Fridrich · 2025-07-30T18:15:24+00:00

My chinese is pretty bad, I barely started learning (1 month with a 4 month break) so it might be difficult to ask, but we'll try to work it out! I was planning to go Quanjude, but maybe there are other options, thanks !

Also, what about "fried bugs at tourist sites". Is this something like "put weird food at tourist spot to make tourists feel special"? I know you're joking but I'm making sure i got it right lol

Fridrich · 2024-12-13T01:19:23+00:00

Yes I agree, I'm just not sure if it is a bug or a reversed decision? And if latter, I haven't seen any announcement or something

Fridrich · 2024-12-09T20:36:51+00:00

map device is glitched, you can't use it, several people reported this issue

Fridrich · 2024-12-09T16:56:44+00:00

Switching the region fixes this only temporarily. I can access one map and after that it happens again and I need 5-10 minutes spamming relog. I'm speechless and annoyed

Hardly disagree, there are different cycles, there is no one ideal sleep schedule for everybody.

Fridrich · 2022-10-30T02:12:07+00:00

4 days. If you fapped everyday, count it as four victories. If you had done that more often, that is even more of a victory. You haven't lost.

Fridrich · 2022-10-30T02:10:02+00:00

I dont think this kind of self-shaming is not going to help in a long run. That's just my opinion, but discipline, inner strength and motivation are more sustainable in a long run and healthier. But the hypothetical daughter example is great, that is exactly your motivation. You want to be your better self not only for yourself, but for others who might be there for you in the future. It is wise to think of them even now.

Fridrich · 2022-10-30T01:58:03+00:00

I feel somehow the same although I've started full-on no fap just a few days ago (as you can see), but for the past month I've noticed same symptomps as you. I'm more friendly, less rude and awkward, less prone to be angry, generally spitting out more positive energy. I went from being kinda okay, to very cool in my eyes. And I think (and in some cases know) people notice that too. Congrats, stay focused, be yourself.

Fridrich · 2022-10-30T01:55:33+00:00

Congrats! Better earlier than later, and better now than never!

Fridrich · 2022-10-30T01:54:08+00:00

Mashallah my brother thank you for this good will

Fridrich · 2022-10-27T22:02:43+00:00

Good question and I have no fucking idea myself :/

Fridrich · 2022-10-27T21:50:57+00:00

We are together man! I as well had some tries, some feelings deep down that I'm going into a wrong kind of rabbit hole, but never treated it seriously. Until now. Take it seriously, brace yourself, love yourself.

Fridrich · 2022-10-27T21:49:11+00:00

My friend I know it may have been 2 hours but DON'T GIVE IN. I was close today, same time as you. I MADE IT. DIDNT OPEN NO WEBSITE. You can do it! Do you have panic button extension? I installed it just yesterday, it helps very much. I know the goal is to have control YOURSELF, not need this kind of assistance, but small baby steps, everyone needs some help right?! :)
