We were eating “shuan yang rou” for dinner. It is Chinese Mongolian hotpot, and it is a very popular Chinese dish, especially in Beijing, and is primarily eaten in winter, when cold winds blow down from Mongolia. “Yangrou” is Mandarin for lamb; the favored meat for this dish, “shuan” can be roughly translated as “to swish”.
