Dinner was at the hotel restaurant. I can hardly remember what each dish was any more, so I guess it the best I can. :) One thing I do remember is that they were all delicious!

2. Stomach and tongue of either pig or cow (卤味拼盘).
3. Snow pea and golden needle mushroom (雪豆金针菇).
4. Pork with garlic sauce (蒜泥白肉).
5. Duck tongue (鸭舌).

8. Fish fillet (鱼片).
9. Stir fry river shrimp (河虾).
10. Eel (鳝丝).
11. Geoduck soup (象拔蚌汤). I had geoduck in sushi and sashimi before. This was the first time I had it in a soup, and it was really good.
12. Guo Ba (rice crispy cake) with beef (锅巴牛肉).
