Anyway, all their stuff contains less sugar. Even ice cream doesn't taste as good. OR when you think you are getting some chocolate topping its actually a sweet bean they use. The soda pop is watered down, it is mostly flavoured water.
Takes some getting used to.
When i was eating out, i would sometimes just order two entrees. They were that small.

i've experienced the opposite there as in size of meals you order. When you go to places locals go to meals are sized just right or too much, never had a meal that was too little. Remember a restaurant for locals, the food was amazing. Huge portions, and all of them were eating alot more than i was, i was surprised how they eat so much and stay skinny. Probably because the food is way healthier than here.
And at the majority of places (i think its common there) they serve meals on plates in the middle and give you an empty plate. Share meals with the company you're with, a good system because it gives variety. A couple was sitting at a table and the plates of food kept coming! About 5 plates full of food and the 2 of them ate everything.
And the taste, damn I've eaten the best stuff i ever had in china. Ofcourse some meals were bad but maybe 2 or 3 out of 30 something. Not a bad score
