and lamb hotpot is great.

Never a truer word, San Mig, well said. And what about barbecued lamb on a thin length of metal, washed down with cold beer, delicious- am I right or am I right?

I shall always associate sitting on a comfy plastic stool with tasty university student, sitting on the pavement, eating barbecue and consuming beer(coke for her) I have never ever taken a date to a posh restaurant or Western food outlet, or spent a lot of money. A good trick too is to let her have a big bowl of noodles on the way to the pavement feast, so she won't eat too much when you get there. Where are these other blokes going wrong- Do they smoke? If they do it's a total no no, because decent Chinese girls do not like fag smoke; only the street-wise difficult scrubbers tolerate smoke, because it's just a price to pay for getting their hands on your loot. Do these FT's have beerguts? Again, the decent girls won't like the abdominally obese, but the streetwise will tolerate these central abborations as the price to pay for getting your cash, or a ring in your nose(matrimony) Most Chinese girls are good and kind and unspoiled. Am I right or am I right?
