China: UN PRANZ NEOBISNUIT PDF   Email
Joi, 26 Iunie 2008 00:00
A doua zi a plouat cu galeata de dimineata pana seara, asa ca am petrecut vreo 4-5 ore in Shanghai Museum. Dupa muzeu m-am oprit sa mananc ceva la un "restaurant" traditional, desigur nu foarte fancy. Personalul era format din trei barbati - un bucatar si doi chelneri. Mi-a fost relativ usor sa comand pentru ca totul era expus, asa ca mi-au facut pe loc o supa din ingredientele alese de mine.

Partea dificila a venit o data cu supa. In Singapore cand comanzi supa de taitei primesti chopsticks, dar si o lingura speciala pentru lichid - well, aici nu este nici o lingura, ci oamenii sorb direct lichidul din bolul imens. Asta nu ar fi deloc o problema, doar ca eu am nevoie de lingura respectiva sa adun taiteii ca sa pot sa-i mananc. Chinezii sunt obisnuiti si doar prind cu betele taiteii, ii baga in gura si apoi sorb (cu zgomot) tot ce atarna (cum faceam noi cand eram mici ca sa ne prostim). Din pacate/fericire acum nu-mi mai arde de prostit, asa ca la momentul respectiv ma chinuiam de numa sa infasor taiteii pe bete ca sa pot sa mananc semi-decent.

La un moment dat am simtit niste ochi asupra mea, asa ca m-am uitat in sus si l-am vazut pe unul dintre chelneri uitandu-se insistent la mine din cadrul unei usi. Se uita si zambea, ceva de genul "pfff turistii astia, nici sa manance singuri nu sunt in stare".
Asa ca m-am uitat la el, am dat din umeri "ei, ce sa faci, numa asa stiu!" si mi-am continuat strofocarile. Stateam cumva cu cotul stang sprijit pe masa si palma deschisa in sus si ma concentram intens asupra bolului, cand am simtit ceva in palma. Mi-am ridicat ochii si am vazut cum chelnerul imi pusese 2 servetele de hartie in mana - cred ca era evident ca aveam nevoie. Imediat dupa, individul si-a reluat pozitita in cadrul usii si a continuat sa se uite la mine. Desigur ca am inceput sa ma simt foarte prost, dar mi-am vazut in continuare de treaba. Dupa inca 5 minute l-am vazut cum a plecat, s-a intors cu un scaun, l-a pus la masa la care stateam si s-a postat in fata mea. Si din nou a continuat sa se uite la mine.

Ooooook, deja treaba devenea mult prea serioasa, asa ca m-am oprit din mancat (sau incercat) si m-am uitat la el. Si atunci tipul a inceput sa vorbeasca cu mine in chineza. Si sa vorbeasca. Si sa vorbeasca. Si mi-am dat seama din tonul vocii ca ma intreba ceva, asa ca am raspuns in chineza mea rudimentara "Nu inteleg". Drept raspuns omul nostru s-a pus sa vorbeasca cu si mai mult duh, a luat bautura mea si un recipient cu bete si a inceput sa le mute pe masa ca sa imi explice ce stiu eu ce vroia sa ma intrebe. Si mai confuza am repetat ca nu inteleg; atunci s-a aprins si mai tare si a inceput sa gesticuleze, sa mute betele si sticla dintr-o parte in alta si sa vorbeasca din ce in ce mai tare, de parca as fi fost de fapt surda, nu nevorbitoare de limba chineza.

Eu am continuat sa dau din umeri si de la o vreme, cand a obosit, a suspinat, s-a uitat la mine, si-a prins cu o mana parul si cu o mana a aratat spre mine si a apoi "thumbs up", cu un zambet super larg. Moment in care tipul de la masa vecina a intrat in vorba si a zis intr-o engleza aproximativa "zice ca ai par frumos". Mda, multumesc frumos m-am gandit, asta a fost singura chestie din tot monologul pe care am reusit si eu sa o inteleg. Din pacate se pare ca tipul de la masa vecina nu stia nimic mai mult in engleza. Intre timp a venit si celalalt chelner si s-a asezat la masa cu noi, iar apoi amandoi i-au strigat ceva bucatarului. Bucatarul a disparut si peste 1 minut s-a intors cu o tipa de vreo 17-18 ani, i-au tras un scaun si s-au asezat toti 4 la masa cu mine, dupa care i-au facut semn: na, spune-i! Si dragutza de ea, din nou cu o engleza foooooarte de baza, mi-a spus ca am par frumos si ochii mari, m-a intrebat de unde sunt (apropos, n-au auzit niciodata de Romania), cati ani am, cat stau in China, ce fac acolo si altele asemenea. Se facusera super comozi, si-au aprins cate o tigara, mi-au oferit si mie una, ceea ce m-a mirat extrem de tare pentru ca aici femeile nu fumeaza! In decurs de 6 saptamani am vazut cred 3 femei fumand, si din cate am inteles asta e un obicei foarte foarte recent pe care l-au adoptat tinerele pentru ca li se pare ca e cool. Dar traditional barbatii au fost mereu cei cu bautul si fumatul opiumului, iar femeile cu… legatul picioarelor (foot binding) – o ilustrare perfecta a conceptelor de “dreptate” si “egalitate”.

Revenind, idea era ca cei 3 erau singurii ce se ocupau cu servitul, asa ca practic noii clienti stateau uimiti in fata standului cu mancare nestiind de ce nu e nimeni acolo sa-i serveasca. Dupa vreo 20 de minute de mimat si zambit si toate cele m-am gandit ca e cazul sa plec, asa ca m-am scuzat frumos si am parasit localul sub privirile inca insistente ale noilor mele cunostinte.

CHINA

china3.jpgInainte sa ajung in China, aceasta tara conducea de departe in topul meu de "tari de cacao pe care le-as huidui la scena deschisa". Ajunsa aici insa mi-am dat seama ca ei, chinezii, sunt de fapt oameni normali. Aproape foarte normali…

INDONEZIA

eggs, many eggs

Cel mai mare arhipeleag al lumi, cu peste 17000 de insule. 6000 de insule locuite... si tot atatea tari.

Insula Bintan - primul meu concediu medical º Bali, sau "Insula Paradis" º Bali - Vulcanul º Balinezii si religia lor º Atentatele din Bali º Balinezii - nume si casatorii º Cu Flora pe motocicleta º Balinezii... º Plaje, lagune, plaje, chitari

LAOS

Mica, frumoasa, conservata in timp. Printre singurele tari comuniste inca si printre cele mai sarace din zona. Tara a contrastelor, si cu atatea de descoperit...

Ganduri despre asemanari si deosebiri

Situatiile cu care ma intalnesc zi de zi ma pun mereu pe ganduri... asa ca astea sunt unele dintre gandurile mele. Subiective desigur. Ale mele.

Est vs. Vest ° "Where are you from?" ° Rasism sau nu rasism ° Rasism impotriva propriei rase? ° Guliver in tara altora ° Movie scenes ° Religii... pentru? ° Calugarul budist ° Craciunul si Consumerismul ° Brand Prostitution ° "Coincidente" ce ne ghideaza viata
