Where are you going? I'm planning to trip to Beijing & Shanghai next year.
Chengdu, Xian, Beijing (where I'll spend the weekend) and then Shanghai, but only for 1 night.

I missed the prog and couldn't find it on iPlayer last night. Will have a look for it tonight.

Ok I'm not sure if I was taken by this programme. She was cute and distracting, her cronies were quite annoying and the food had already been covered better by Ken Hom. I know that's a bit harsh but she seemed to be a bit forced and I think she would be better in real life than on the screen.

This is by far the best one so far, how much can you get scallops for. I really want to try that.

Scallops are quite expensive, or they were last time I looked. The last lot I bought I got from Billingsgate Market and they were very, very good.
