Yours turned out better than mine, for sure. Went for the Toad in the Hole combo, but left it in a few minutes too long.

A slightly blurry close-up shot of a slightly overdone chunk of Toad in the Hole. It was more than slightly tasty.

I'm guessing this is off the beaten path for many. Found myself having a mediocre coffee and a decent sandwich just across the street from the Wukang building in the French Concession in Shanghai yesterday. The cheesecake was very nice. #SundayPixOffTheBeatenTrack #SundayPix

My entry for #SundayPixDoor. Taken in PuGuangShan, Zhejiang, China (one of my favourite places in the world).

Two decrepit wooden doors set into a dry stone wall, one brightly lit by sunlight and the other in shadow. A tree separates the two, as if defining an irrevocable choice. A bright, but slightly overcast sky presides above.

Not quite soup, and not quite stew... What is it? It's dingle dangles! Broccoli, corn, carrot, button and shiitake mushrooms, tomato, a Thai chili, pork tenderloin, finally diced potato, and the all-important dingle dangles (莜面).

#SundayPixFlowers Not truly a picture *of* a flower, but there's a flower in it and I like this picture so... yeah.
