Weekend Wanderings: St. Patrick's Day in China?!

We concluded that we do not do enough exploring in Shanghai.  Therefore, we decided to head to the French Concession for something other than Chinese food on a random Sunday.  This will also be another mainly picture post. 

Lunch at Greek Taverna Milos.  We decided to kick off St. Patty's Day with Greek food and drinks.  From left to right: lamb chops, chicken gyro platter, hummus and pita bread appetizer.

We decided to celebrate St. Patty's day right (even though we're in China), by heading over to the Shanghai Brewery, since their green beer intrigued us.  Unfortunately, the beer was probably the worst beer ever.  There was a mixed undertone of mint and apple?!  We overlooked the nasty beer in the spirit of St. Patty's Day. Cheers to that! 

We finished off our explorations in the French Concession at French Creperie.  We ordered three crepes, a flaming one, a Ferrero Rocher ice cream one, and a caramel toffee one.  All were delicious.    

The next post will be longer and more detailed, since it'll be of our Huangshan trip, but until then 再见!
