Flavor Tang Beijing Airport Food ( on the way to SES China )
We were on the way to attending SES China in Nanjing and stopped by the Flavor Tang. Yeah that’s the name. I am assuming the tang is the same tang in Chinese which means court so Flavor Tang in this case would be a cooler name than just generic Food Court. The logo of the guy on the sign is pretty cool too – an inverted rice bowl on his head.
Flavor Tang a 2 tier food court in this case one which is buffet style and the other is waiter service. We didn’t have much time so we went the buffet route. Here’s a snapshot of some of the dishes available at Flavor Tang Buffet:

I chose 2 dishes along with my white rice – Stir fried wintermellon and pork
. Turned out to be a good choice with some home style flavor.
Also had the Chinese Brocolli with Mushrooms and Tofu

The Tofu in this case is a spongier tofu and is stir fried with a thick gravy to give it the taste of beef. i.e. fake beef. It’s a lot better than the fake beef I get at Yips in midtown Manhattan. All in all the food hit the spot on our way to attending SES China in Nanjing last Friday.

ugh. Doesn’t look too appetizing.
It reminds me of the Taiwanese buffets in Southern China. You choose a couple of dishes, then get a rice or zhou (or zhou with squash) with them. Inexpensive and tasty.
