Chink Chink!

We meet some of Adrian’s colleagues for lunch in a local restaurant and judging by the looks and double takes I was getting, the other restauranteurs had either never seen, or rarely seen a Westerner in here before. Lunch was lovely, but we ordered far too much food and I was worried we’d be offending everyone if we left any of it.

Thankfully there was also beer – interesting etiquette: by chinking on a certain position on the glass, you demonstrated on how much you respected the person, plus you were supposed to chick and cheers each time you took another sip.

There was a lot of glass chinking...
