I've never actually eaten here, but it seems intriguing. It seems like pretty much everything on the menu is meat, though, and I'm afraid of getting really low quality meat from places like this. I should try it, though-- it just may surprise me.
Une Canadienne Errante
That's me! Just another wandering Canadian, moving around the globe, always looking for my next adventure and my next destination! I started this blog because, before I made the decision to move to Mongolia, I wanted to see what my new city would look like, but all I could find when I searched for images of Mongolia were landscape images. I had no clue what Ulaanbaatar looked like right up until the day I landed. This blog was born so maybe other people might have a better sense of what Ulaanbaatar looks like, if they want or need to know. I've been an expatriate in Ulaanbaatar since September, but before that, I lived in Korea, Kuwait, and France. I'm considering moving to Myanmar in June-- I'll keep you posted. I'm kind of a homebody and a loner, but I also like to walk around a lot, which provides plenty of opportunities for pictures and observations. Being a loner, I rarely share my observations with others, but I'll share some here. I never proofread and rarely edit, so sorry in advance for all the typoes that are likely to sneak their way into this blog.

Pizza Broadway
God, I've been in Asia for far too long. I am now the type of person who takes photos of her food in restaurants. A few weeks ago, I had the week off from my full-time job, so I decided to treat myself and go to a restaurant. I'm not embarrassed to go to a restaurant alone. This is Pizza Broadway on Peace Avenue. I was surprised... it was pretty good! I had the mango-something drink (it was the drink with mango and ice cream in it) and the BBQ chicken pizza, which was not at all like what BBQ chicken pizza is in Canada, but which was tasty, nonetheless.

This Little Piggy
This little piggy went to the market and was never seen or heard from again. If you have any information regarding his whereabouts, please notify the police or call the TIPS Hotline, as his family are all very worried, at home, and eagerly awaiting their roast beef.

Korean in Cyrillic
When I was teaching business students in Korea, I found from listening to them that Koreans really like Mongolia. This was confirmed when I decided to move to Mongolia and told a few of my Korean friends about my plans. When I arrived in Mongolia, I found that Mongolians seem to love Korea as much as Koreans love Mongolia. This was confirmed to me when my high school students spent twenty minutes listing all the K-pop they love and when I noticed the superabundance of Korean restaurants in downtown Ulaanbaatar.

Restaurants
This restaurant is close-ish to where I live, and it always reminds me of Valentine's Day. I'd like to go in and see what the food is like, but I haven't, yet, because I don't know enough about Mongolian food to order something tasty (I know-- the only way to figure out what's tasty is to try it all), I can't read cyrrillic very well yet, so I'll look like an idiot when I try to order, and I'm trying to be very frugal at the moment, which means cooking at home instead of eating at restaurants, even if the restaurant is ridiculously cheap, as I suspect this one is. Oh well, I think I'm pretty decent cook, and I really like my own cooking!
But seriously, I do have to try this restaurant. I noticed yesterday an incredibly similar restaurant in a different part of Ulaanbaatar, so now I'm wondering if this isn't a chain. Also, on the other restaurant, I noticed a word in cyrillic that looked like "russky", which makes me wonder if these restaurants don't serve Russian food... mmmm, perohy!
