Here I am enjoying a nice Chinese breakfast burrito on the back streets of Shanghai. It's basically a large thin crepe; folded inside is a long thin fried wonton then some dark chinese bbq sauce, chopped pickled onions, fresh chopped scallions and cilantro and if you ask a little bit of chiles. This is the basic breakfast burrito for 2 Yuan or 30 cents. The crepe is about 16 inches across, very big but very thin. If you would like to add a bit of chicken and lettuce then the cost increases to 50 cents. I really like adding the lettuce for the crunch, I can skip the chicken. You just never know where that chicken has been or even where it came from. Then they stick it in a plastic bag - tres elegante! You can't find these in any mall, they are on small back streets where the locals live and you have to know where to go to get one. Wanna Bite?
