Day 32

Today we were given time off for free and easy.We took bus 702 to guang gu, where we window shopped. Compared to other times we went to guang gu, today there was much more people because there was ching ming festival. We were kind of bored while walking around cause we had been to guang gu many times before and had been to most of the shops there.

We decided that we explore more of guang gu after walking a few rounds at the lower storeys. There was a store that we saw that interested us very much. It was the chicken rice store. We didn't buy the chicken rice there because it was rather expensive.

After that we went to buy our favourite bubble tea at coco.

Reflection
Today, i finally saw a chicken rice stall here in Wuhan. During my stay here, i realised that there aren't any street stalls that sell chicken rice here. This has made me curious as i thought chicken rice would be local food in Wuhan. It was the first time here that i saw a chicken rice stall that was in Guang Gu. That then led me to do some research over the net.

Hainan chicken

The chicken rice we eat in Singapore originates from hainan. It is based on the well-known Hainanese dish called Wenchang chicken. Even though a small dish may not seem interesting to some, it interested me very much. Chicken rice is often considered as the "national dish" of Singapore and can bring back alot memories about the local food in Singapore if eaten in Wuhan. Thats why it made me very curious why it is so difficult to find chicken rice in Wuhan.
