'Beijing Street Food for breakfast - Jianbing - In heated skillet is used to make a thin pancake from a flour mixture, two eggs are added with herbs and spices, a piece of lettuce is added with a crispy deep fried rice or noodle type of square thingy, and then it\'s folded over and put in a plastic bag. I usually got it without the hot spices otherwise it could possibly kill me and commit me to the life of a king for the day (reside on the throne) depending on how spicy hot it was. Pretty darn good and still inexpensive by western standards, although the price has increased about 20%-40% in the last year. This called something pronounced something like \"Jambing\". This stand is across from the Renwood Center (Red Bull building), but a better stand is located behind the LG Tower Buildings (by the Starbucks Coffee) by the entrance to the old Chinese backstreet neighborhood. This stand in the video made the \"pancake\" a bit too dry. Note my expert command of the Chinese Mandarin language. Found a brief blog post on this dish here: http://www.borrowedculture.com/2011/07/30/beijing-breakfast/'
