Most hotels serve a breakfast buffet of Chinese and Western food from about 7 to 10am. At
lunchtime business people pack the restaurants from 1 to 2pm. Dinner is between 7.30 and
9.30pm, but restaurants are flexible; many are open from early in the morning until mid-
night without a break.
A traditional Chinese breakfast consists of
congee
, a rice gruel or porridge to which al-
most anything may be added. At backstreet breakfast stalls you will also see the early risers
digging into noodle soup with chunks of vegetable or pork.
