Hello,
we are taking the train down from Beijing to extend our visas. Just enough time to walk on the beach, drink beer and starve: we are vegetarian and my last visit to a seaside town was bleak.

Baidaihe offered little more than greasy potato at restaurants fronted by glass tanks filled with doomed creatures. Broke my daughter's heart.

Shall I pack plenty of snacks or are there some local dishes to try?

thanks in advance for any advice

cheers,
Pat
