Then on the way home, you need to take a black cab. (Either that or just have your own car and driver - but that doesn't fit in the 100rmb/week budget) WoAi – it’s almost impossible to find – you need to call them and have them talk to the cab driver.

Ana - Just a few suggestions: 1. Beijing Roast Duck at Da Dong, east 3rd ring close to Gong Ti Bei Lu, tel 010 6582 2892. 2. Vineyard Cafe by Yong He Gong (Lamma Temple) for great English cafe food. Be warned, it's VERY hard to find down a narrow alley. http://www.vineyardcafe.cn/ 3. Yang rou chuan (lamb skewer) pizza at Pass By Cafe on Nan Luo Gu Xiang near Hou Hai. Loads of small bars and cafes around there, well worth a trip. 4. The German restaurant next to Nashville on Lucky Street: http://tinyurl.com/c8ml46 Great bakery downstairs, restaurant upstairs. Try going for brunch on Saturday or Sunday. The farmer breakfast with mixed bread basket, butter, crispy bacon slices and pan fried potatoes looked great. Heli82 – I propose we all move to Beijing!
