Throughout the city, eateries and bars are now spreading at a stomach-churning pace.
Even the service has improved. But some Beijingers are shocked by changes, especially the weird dishes available.
The raw fish served at Japanese restaurants is quite a shock to many locals. As is the bangers, mash and baked beans at the English pubs. It's only a matter of time before someone asks me: "Do people really eat this stuff in your country?"
I will advise them to try the food before making a judgment.
Or, at least, to get their reckless friends to take the first bite on their behalf.
