“I don’t have time for a sit-down dinner so I head into a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant that is absolutely packed with customers for an Old Beijing Twister — a wrap modeled after the way Peking duck is served, but with fried chicken, spring onions and hoisin sauce. I stick out like a sore thumb when I’m in China. I’d like to think it is my camera hanging around my neck that gives me away as a tourist, but the truth is that I’m just too darn fat to be mistaken for a local. That’s OK because the Chinese are very friendly people who love to practice their English on willing Americans.”
