Today, I finished my last class for my TEFL certification in Beijing. I've loved being in Beijing. I learned so much in classes, and had some fun cultural experiences on my days off. I have one more day in Beijing, and then I'll take a train ride and be in Zhengzhou by Saturday night! I'll have about a week before classes start.
In honor of our last day of class, some friends and I went out for dinner.
Want to know where we went for Chinese Valentine's Day?
Here:
Yep, The Modern Toilet. It is inside what we like the call the Three Canned Hams:
In the modern toilet, everything is decorated like a bathroom. The seats at most tables are toilets with a cushion on top. Dishes come out in plates and bowls shaped like toilets or bathtubs or sinks. The drinks come in cups shaped like urinals. It's crazy. I split an order of spaghetti with my friend Andrea and had a coke, and my whole meal was less than $4 US! It was a fun experience. Here are some more photos:

| Haha!!! Since we were a big group, they didn't set us at one of the tables with toilets. But, we took pictures with one anyway. If you can see, they are sitting on toilets. In the middle of the table are sinks with fake 'poo' in the middle. Kind of gross, but whimsical. |

That is just crazy! The bathtub dish is cute, though. Glad you're having fun.
ReplyDeleteI thought you were kidding....until I scrolled down through your photos! I'm glad I didn't see this until I got home and over my bout with the food poisoning I had while up in Dalian. Gao Wen and I ate some octopus from a not-so-good source and both of us were in bad shape. But this place looks like it's a lot more fun! Go well, Ladybug! I can't wait to hear about your adventures in Zhengzhou during the cooler parts of the year! Love you!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's really funny! I have heard about this place on Food Network. It's cool that you got the chance to eat there. Hope your trip goes well tomorrow!
