Delicious Beijing Street Snacks: A Personal Journey

When I first visited Beijing in 1997 for a summer colllege program I first started having these street snacks. They make a pancake first on a hot plate then crack and cook an egg on top. I usually get it with a crunchy deep fried cracker and some hot sauce on it. after it rolled into a log it usually getc chopped in the middle and folded in half before being stuck into a plastic bag. My rule with street food is it’s probably inexpensive, so I try to eat as much as I can fit in while on the go. Breakfast is a prime time for these snacks,

Its really portable, you walk around eating it like a sandwich in a bag. This one also had some kind of meat and lettuce. Fresh veggies used to be a no-no when I first started visiting China. Maybe thats changed a little? With all the fillings we got this one was just under three bucks US.
