there’s a lot of resources around the shanghai internets about hot pot and the various locales where one can partake in this winter-centric dining style, so i don’t feel i need the need to add to this.
but as this is my friend grace’s last full week and shanghai AND my super-awesome-cool friend abbie was up in shanghai for meetings, we gathered at hot pot king (huaihai lu and fuxing lu – 2nd floor) for some awesomeness.

How can you have hotpot without luncheon meat?
@WoAi – I don’t know. We had luncheon meat, just not at the time of the photos.
Well that’s understandable. When I have hotpot the luncheon meat disappears quickly too!
I think I ate most of it. Abs and Grace were not so approving of the luncheon meat, to be honest.
T – That photo is nowhere near Fuxing Lu it’s by Cha’s!! And is it just my computer where the address doesn’t come out?

Yeah, the last photo is by Cha’s. We were heading to HoF again for dessert, but then it wasn’t open so we took photos in the street instead.
I’m having trouble with my chinese wordpress plugin – what do you use to see Chinese characters?
Yes they close on Mondays.
I don’t use a plugin I just type normal Chinese or cut and paste and it works. Here, let me try:

Does that come out?
Blimey it doesn’t!
Yeah, I’ve found it really odd. I can’t get Chinese to show up anywhere – except for the URLs.
I don’t think it’s a WordPress issue. I do not have any plugin or widget for Chinese characters. Could it be the server / host which can’t handle Asian character sets?
it might be. damn english servers.
ooh i went there the other night, it was good! we def had the luncheon meat
@sandy – I used to think my dad’s devotion to luncheon meat was strange (it was a result of growing up in post-war Hong Kong) but now I get it. My favorite way of eating it is in egg + luncheon meat sandwiches – Cha’s does a particularily tasty one.
Don’t see the characters either, only ??? … must be something about the editor or where you copied it from, since characters work with my errm and other’s wp blogs
