Last month - Erik & I both took the HSK test at Jiang Zhang Gao Ke (Jiang Zhang Technology Park). This was the most eastern part of Shanghai that we've ever been to. This station is the last station of Pudong. After the test, we were looking for places to grab lunch and we found this small yet pleasant outdoor mall area (with nice gardens). Erik and I agreed to treat ourselves to Subway (the American NY deli place). I ordered a 1/2 chicken teriyaki sub on italian bread with dijon mustard (you never find this anywhere else in SH). The sub cost me 15 rmb (approx$2.20US) since it was part of the daily special. And I wanted something to drink so I got a bottle of Peach Snapple. I asked how much it was and the cashier said it was 15 rmb. My drink and my sub cost me the same amount of money....*sniff* but I bought it and drank it anyway since it was the HSK.
(BTW, in SH you can buy a bottle of juice for approx 3RMB so a bottle of imported Snapple was like 5 times more expensive. And I stopped thinking stuff in American dollars otherwise I'll use up everything in my savings account in no time! )

Shame on you for having Subway in China ...... when there are better foods available to you.
