Beijing 4.4 -LED Screen, War Foods ' Yuan-

The 2nd Biggest LED screen in the world, the biggest belongs to La Vegas! This one named " all Beijing look up", it was HUGE... I thought just another giant stuffs which i have seen millions in Dubai but this it outta my imagination. A 250 meter x 30 meter, that the size.. it would take usain bolt 25second to run the length! Proudly say... MADE IN CHINA!

The sliced goat steamboat was an ordinary war-food make extraordinary by a brilliant soldier-cook. The emperor heard about the brillaint food thus summon the soldier-cook to made the meal for him in the palace.

The soldiers tasted the food extremely good because they hadnt been eating warm food during fighting but for the emperor, he had been eating well cooked food all along thus just dipping goat meat into hot water surely will not satisfy him.

The brilliant cook came up with an idea to freeze the goat meat on a ice-block thus the meat can be sliced to very thin and that make it extra specail.

That day was "Ko_tung festival" (Winter Festival?) So our tourguide Mr.li bought us some tong-yuen, chocolate tong-yuen to be exact. He said he bought all that's left in the store and got scolded by people behind, not sure if its true or not. Ko-tung was suppose to have something to do with Winter but in Msia we dont have winter, I wonder why Msian Chinese still celebrat this day?

Anyway, China's Chinese celebrate ko-tung by eating kow-chi not tong-yuen...
