You're in Xi'an, right? Go hit muslim street and buy a bowl of those spicy little potatoes and post a picture here and tell me how amazingly delicious they are (because I found them amazingly delicious and crave them often). I know that didn't offer much in the way of a solution for homesickness... but hey - spicy potatoes are a nice distraction!
I was in Xi'ian, back in Shanghai now. I did hit up that Muslim street though and GODDAMN that was some good eats. I wish we would have taken more pictures on that street but I had this lamb sandwich thing that I still think about and some pomegranate tea. It was like the perfect amount of salty and sweet. So many great smells.You're in Xi'an, right?
