I love food photos, especially after my recent Asia trip. Nice job. That last one's a bit creepy though.

Delightful photos. I'm not usually a food photo fanatic, but these - AHHHHH! They remind me of my experience with intestines which I had mistaken for noodles during my China trip. I am not an adventurous eater, but I do enjoy a view of food others prefer! Wish I had known you were going. I so desire the chrysanthemum tea which we enjoyed at the tea house in Shanghai. The blossom opens in the hot water. Have tried to purchase it in US to no avail.

Great job with the pictures of the various food plates. I find it's not always easy to capture the food and have it look good. Loved the two photos of the fruit vendors too.

Very intersting but I don't think I would care to eat some of it!

I've seen the Shanghai dumpling operation firsthand - very impressive - they pump them out right quick!
