A few pictures of Thanksgiving in Beijing
Chinese kitchens are rarely bigger than that pictured below. With only a two woks, a microwave, and no oven, cooking Thanksgiving dinner can get pretty hairy. Nevertheless, Lynn and I masterminded a meal that included Peking duck/KFC fried chicken as turkey substitute, mashed potatoes, assorted veggies, roasted sweet potatoes, and sticky rice stuffing. I must say, we’re pretty damn resourceful.

Tissues. Quinn’s brilliant idea, as stacks of loose napkins are rarely seen around here.

It looks like everyone had a blast. The kitchen is small, but you put out some good food from it.
