If you guys have any other questions, feel free to leave them in the comments section. The blogger (or I, if it's the blogger speaking) will reply to each one after seeing them.

I was at the spot you mentioned earlier this morning.

Couldn't agree more.

Exactly.

Where in Tianjin did you see that? I feel like Tianjin now mostly has those small brick buildings from the 90s. Where exactly did you see the kind of places you're describing? I honestly can't recall any like that offhand.

There's a place called Jiu Jiu Xiao Chao near Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. It's a bit of a 'hole-in-the-wall' spot, but all their dishes are freshly stir-fried. If you decide to go, make sure to get there early to queue, about an hour before peak mealtime.

A long time ago, I also used to take Route 911 every day from Shuicheng Road to work on Huaihai Middle Road.

Initially, I also thought there were few restrooms, especially compared to Ueno Zoo. But after exploring for a while, it turned out to be adequate.

I'm also feeling very anxious right now.

Doesn't Putuo district now have that massively hyped 'it' spot?

Actually, it's more about a personal disenchantment, realizing your own limits.

I just want to say, the article is spot on.

Oysters, oh oysters!

You're welcome.

That's a bit extreme. Shanghai's metro system alone, for instance, is overwhelmingly superior.

I even saw a man wearing a qipao (cheongsam) today! Anyway, I respect all kinds of fashion choices. What I really admire are elderly ladies who dress elegantly and have such amazing poise and style.

My main concern is that I'll be eating alone, so I'm worried I won't be able to try much if I order dishes.

Friends.
