An American in Beijing


This swanky fast food café photo above is actually of the McDonalds in Wangfujing. Not only do they have the regular selection of burgers and fries, but they also feature a “McCafe” coffee and dessert bar that was absolutely delicious. Usually I love to get the old McDonalds deep fried apple pie, which some of us remember from the 1980s and is no longer sold in the US. Instead of apple pie, this Mcdonalds offer fillings of pineapple or taro.
McCafe – Chocolate green tea cake and chamomile tea - 27RMB

We also visited the KFC for breakfast. Unfortunately we were too late for the congee (rice porridge), but we got an opportunity to still try a Chinese American breakfast meal. It was pretty good. The egg and cheese sandwich had some sort of mustard mayo dressing so tasted a bit different from American egg and cheese sandwiches. I was hoping they would have multiple egg tart flavors like Taipei. But I could still eat KFC egg custard tarts any day.

KFC - Egg and cheese sandwich with hot soy bean milk and Portuguese egg tart - 12RMB
