One of my oldest friend (actually since 40 years back..) Mats and his wife Gunilla have been for a three week tourist trip in China and made a stop over in Beijing for the weekend before going back to Sweden on Monday.
Being in Beijing for the first time there were four things they wanted to see: Great Wall, Forbidden City, Tianamen Square and Beijing Duck.
So last night we was invited to join them and part of the group for a duck dinner at Hademen Hotel.
The restaurant in this hotel (Bian Yio Fang) have been serving roasted Beijing ducks since 1855 and can serve 1000 people at the same time...
The tour guide Bernt and his Hong Kong wife ordered a very nice dinner nor just with duck but also some other disches that goes well with duck - like duck leaver and duck feets. This was the first time a tested the duck feets and it was not that bad.....
Gunilla, Mats, Shi Zhiting and Luo Manxia enjoying the dinner.
Discussion in half-Chinese and half-Swedish between Shi Zhiting, Luo Manxia and the tour guide Bernt.
We had a very nice dinner and talked a lot about "old times" but also about their trip in China. They were very satisfied with the trip and also with their tour-guides Bernt Eriksson and his wife Luo Manxia organizing "private trips" for people that like to see China and other parts of Asia.
Thank You all for a nice evening!
