So the double decker bus dropped us off in People's Square (rather they kicked us off because you had to pay again to ride any further, explained to us by a nice Chinese girl after the ticket taker rambled to us in Chinese for 5 minutes, well only to me because the Chinese like to ignore my friend when speaking Chinese). So we decided to treat ourselves to the Carl's Jr. I had heard about a few weeks back. The first one in China and just opened 2 months before. So we walked into the mall, only to be described as the one with Hershey's store in it, and headed down to find our hometown craving (no In & Out yet).
Nothing like ordering a big juicy Western bacon w/ Cheese, fries and a 'refillable' drink! Here is my friend,Trent, enjoying some delicious crisscut fries.
During our delicious meal, I was trying to take in our whole experience. And during
this experience taking ining I noticed the Carl's Jr. cups... You would think nothing special right? Well half way around the world I have come across a slice of my home town. The all too familiar quote on the side of the cup, yup the review by the 'Orange County Register'! Nothing like coming to China, sitting down to a completely normal Carl's Jr. meal and being probably the first (ok I'm exaggerating...maybe the second) person to actually know where that quote on the side of the cup came from. Well anyway, I took advantage of my free refill and we left, having throughly enjoyed our tasty, yet expensive meal (38 kuai).
