The sights


Well so far in Beijing we have seen Acrobats riding bikes, the forbidden city, the wall around the city, the geological museum and many more, but noting beats the salad bar at Pizza Hut!
The local PH here in the XiCheng district only allows ONE TRIP to the salad bar. Well we though that was kind of strange until we saw the masterpieces that people were making!
Not a single person who went to the salad bar (and we were sitting right beside it) failed to take at least 15 minutes to meticulously pile his or her salad in to a leaning tower of Piza like extravaganza. Most of them had consultants at their side, advising on the clingability of this or that vegetable. Most used piled cucumber slices to make a ring wall above the edge of the bowl and then filled in the ring and continued piling from there.
Jim and August had a go, and although i can't say much for the taste it was a work of art.
