mbarker: (Burp)
At the conference, I'm staying at a local hotel -- with what people assure me is a Chinese-style breakfast buffet.  So this morning, for example, there was a sweet rice cake, a folded bread chunk with some vegetables baked in, a pancake with chunks of sweet potato inside, a soft tortilla-like thing filled with spring onions (scallion pie?), boiled eggs, egg drop soup, bean soup, slices of apple, 4 kinds of cookies, and about 5 varieties of pickled stuff.
And what is that? )
But it is fun to try a different style, and notice my own reactions to being knocked out of my breakfast rut. Would you like a cookie?
