Posted: Thu Aug 10, 2006 9:07 pm Post subject: Chinese BBQ!
Have you guys tried local outdoor Chinese BBQ
Not the type at swanky restaurants ... I'm talking about the outdoor restaurants in China (Wocca would probably know, as would Simon) ...
I love the BBQ there Extra spicy skewered beef/lamb/chicken wings - yum.
And, plenty of beer to boot
Opinions, comments

Not sure what chuar is, but sounds good at any rate!
I love the spicy noodles (different from the Sichuan spicy noodles) and skewered meat ... What is chuar _________________Dongguan Expat - Your online Community!

I thought the Mandarin for that is "Cao" ...
For example, skewered lamb = "Cao Yang Rou" ...
Are you talking about the local dialect in Haerbin, or Mandarin? _________________Dongguan Expat - Your online Community!

As far as I know, the Mandarin for pork is "zhu" ... they dont appear to have pork on skewers here as far as I know though. _________________Dongguan Expat - Your online Community!

Not sure on the dialect issue, but the Chinese also use Chuar in Shenzhen too, as well as Dongbei. _________________

Are you sure the Pin yin is right?
It can't be Cantonese if you say they use it up north also. _________________Dongguan Expat - Your online Community!

No, I'm not certain the pin yin is correct, I'm spelling it phonetically...
