49 RMB lunch eat all you can barbecue / hot pot at Jiang Ning Lu /Kang Ding Lu

I'd say La Gondola Italian restaurant is good value for money. There's better alternatives but they cost more. I also think People 7 / People 6 for dinner is good value given the comfortable and spacious environment. |

oh, and when you order a salad don't forget to tell them not to add any dressing, just ask for the olive oil and vinegar! the olive oil is more expensive than the 6RMB for the salad  |

Tied with the Full Body Massage would be "ayi's" [mentioned by SwissJames in another tread so giving him some kudos]. Love my ayi. Had her over 3 years and shes an angel. Asked for a 50 RMB wage increase recently [the first in 3 years] as we've moved and now she has to take 2 buses instead of one. Bless your golden, pure soul, ayi. |
