If you are looking for Street food there is plenty around but at the night Market it is amazing. Rows of vendors serving all kinds of dishes.
I really wanted to get the whole fish cooked on a spit but not enough time to eat it and see other things.
The mango sticky rice was amazing and something I will try to make myself. Glutinous rice, coconut milk, mango, and crispy rice on top.
We ate baby octopus.
We also ate Cooked quail eggs with mussels on top. They poach them on cast iron molds on skewers.
We also ate sweet potato balls. These were delicious.
I snapped a few other pictures of octopus balls, grasshoppers (yes we all tried one though the kids bet money on making the captain eat one), rainbow cheese sandwiches (did not try this but cheese is very different here.)
One of the students bought cheese fries. The cheese was sweet almost as if it was made from sweetened condensed milk. It had some hot spice in it though.
In the end we went back to the hotel and no surprise that the kids were silk hungry. I guess the market was just an appetiser for them. The mall is a couple blocks walk then across a pedestrian bridge. It is huge. 5 stories with any kind of shop you would need including a grocery store at the bottom. I bought more seaweed snacks as they are more expensive in China.
So we are going to hear about when we will fly out. Flights are now resuming but still delayed. The school is paying our stay at this hotel for a long as we need including the breakfast buffet which is the best that I have ever had hands down.
