For some reason, I wouldn’t like to take this bus (由于某些原因,我不要上他的车子)

Shanghai bus 911

I rewatched Speed the other day with a group of students. What a classic film! Keanu Reeves…about to break onto the world stage…Sandra Bullock…well…she was enjoying her 5 minutes of fame before she disappeared into B-movie obscurity (yes The Net, I’m talking about you!). 某日我跟我一群学生重温了遍生死时速。经典的电影啊!基努•李维斯…即将站上世界的舞台…桑德拉•布洛克…嗯…在她消失然后投身于B级影片前她确实享受了5分钟的名望(对,我说的就是网络惊魂!) The next day we were driving near Huaihai Lu when [...]

Chinese job interview

I was recently sent this interview in an email from a colleague – I get a kick out of it, so I think you will too! I’ve been on a mission recently to find jokes that are funny both in English and Chinese…consider this the first step towards global comedy domination… 我最近把这个面试发给了一个同事,他笑死了,我想你也会笑死的!我最近有个任务就是要寻找中文和英文的好玩的东西或者笑话…考虑把这个当作冲向国际喜剧界的第一步… Best job interview [...]

Chris Cafe, Shanghai (上海基斯餐厅)

chris cafe restaurant shanghai

Today we went for lunch at Chris Cafe, on Shanghai’s Nan Hui Lu near Beijing Xi Lu (behind Plaza 66). It looks pretty crappy from the outside (actually it always looks closed), but once you go inside (and up the stairs) it’s a really nice, HK style restaurant with a pretty wide range of dishes [...]

Dunkin’ Donuts’ secret ingredient! (唐恩都乐的神秘配方)

dunkin-donuts-shanghai-china-secret-ingredient

With the scandal of the tainted milk powder still fresh in the minds of many Chinese people, I was shocked to see this sign in the window of the Dunkin’ Donuts shop on Fuzhou Lu yesterday. 在中国人对于变质奶粉丑闻仍然记忆犹新的时候,我昨天又被福州路上的一家唐恩都乐店窗上的广告给吓到了。 Could it really be that Dunkin’ Donuts has begun using one very ‘old fashioned’ ingredient?! 难道唐恩都乐真的决定使用这种‘过时的’配方了?! The green [...]
