Some laughed while feeding each other french fries and chicken nuggets.
My local friends told me the best place for a date in Beijing is none other than McDonald's. My sister Grace, Adelaide and I ordered chocolate shakes and french fries to observe Beijing's dating culture.
A couple opposite to us sat silently, eating french fries without comment. We ruled that date was a bust. Nearby another couple cuddled shamelessly. A few others were feeding each other fries.

The reasons for McDonald's popularity? My local friends inform me McDonald's is clean, safe and affordable.
In the United States, McDonald's has a reputation for being a fast food joint. In Beijing (and other parts of China), McDonald's has been raised to a higher level of culture.
I bit into a fry and laughed as one couple secretly held hands under the table. Only in China.
*Adelaide, my sister Grace and I enjoying the number one hang out in Beijing at McDonald's.
