TITLE: STREETS AND HOLES LOCATION: VICTORY/COMMERCE AVENUE INTERSECTION MISSION: SHAVE AND DINNER DATE: 2011-12-15 After a several hours long stretch of intense writing, I decided to take a break from my computer and went downtown. First I got a myself a shave at Hongda Hair Centre (宏大美发中心) in the alley next to Shoushan's fanciest restaurant: Pengdeli (朋得利酒楼). Then I went for a quick dinner a little further down Commerce Avenue. At the intersection where Victory Avenue and Commerce Avenue meet I almost stumbled into a sewer. It is hard to believe that no one thought of boarding this hole up, it really is an accident just waiting to happen. It was difficult to see for sure, but it looked pretty deep... I eventually made my way to Jinzhou Barbecue (锦州烧烤), the place just opposite to Xiaoguangzhou Barbecue (晓广州烧烤), a place I have been to a few times before. Barbecues, perhaps the only thing more ubiquitous than pool halls and Commerce Avenue is literally packed with them. |
