Truck driving Kurt Russell with Chinese sidekick hero is best Kurt Russell.

It's pretty much legal in places I was last year (California Oregon especially). Shoot, I drove my niece (relax, she's like 25) to the dispensary when taking her out to dinner. She said not to tell her mom. I hate being the cool uncle.

That's how I've been pickpocketed in Shanghai 4 times because I'm a 100% A-grade idiot.

I don't smoke (because I'm like the one kid D.A.R.E. worked on - thanks Nancy!) and I think weed smoke smells terrible and even I think there's way more positives to legal marajuana than drawbacks.

Shoot, I can even get a California burrito in two different locations in Shanghai. SHANGHAI.* The concept has travelled a bit.

Sisig is amazing also pig's face

I remember 20 years ago when I first moved to Asia, Luohu was pretty "dangerous" - but I mean, I was coming from North Oakland, so it wasn't exactly like Fort Apache, the Bronx circa 1970.

Yeah I've read and heard the fermented fish sauce theory. But man, ketchup sounds EXACTLY like 茄汁 in Cantonese, just a difference on the emphasis.

Really? Scared? Man, I think the only scary parts of China are various train stations.

I haven't spent more than an hour in Shenzhen in like 5 years, but I assume they'd be where the youth hang out - Dongmen?

My favorite part is throwing those cups in the street and they just recycle themselves! (I went to Delhi/Rajasthan with a friend and she wanted to go jewlery shopping . . . well in every little shop) so I drank a lot of the chai they brought to me sitting there watching her try on jewelry.

There's tons of places in Shenzhen, no? I just checked Dianping and there's at least 60 places.

ADC is the best.

The preserved lemon with 7-Up is my jam. Especially when it's 38 degrees C and 85% humidity outside. (Applicable to Hong Kong or Shanghai)

Funny seeing you around here (I used to comment on kungfulogy back in the day) - Cha's is decent, but I think Xin Wang does a better version. For some reason Tsui Wah in Shanghai is not very good at all - neither are the dozens of HK style milk tea places that have popped up over the last two years. There used to be a…

The pulled tea from Malaysia (via India) seems to be spicier than HK style milk tea.

I don't know. I can't drink milk, but I can drink enough milk tea to float a cargo ship and eat wheels of cheese so maybe my lactose intolerance is pretty mild.

Taichung if you want to get specific.

The condensed/evaporated milk is much sweeter than "tea with milk"

Anti-vax is a weird intersection of anti-government conspiracy theorists on both the liberal and conservative sides.
