Looks like Uyghur bread with toppings. China only invented pollution and bad behavior.

me and my girlfriend were arguing about where pizza was invented and apparently I was right. YES. In her face.

Sold on the streets of Yantai, Shandong Province - PRC. Delicious and at 3 Kuai each fantastic (I usually by 4)

Yes! This solves my problem. Thank you, thank you very much! My classmates and I have been arguing about where pizza was invented. This article proves it all! My friend said Italy, I said China. I was right! I can't wait until I tell him tomorrow! Won't he be surprised!!

If the Chinese invented pizza, do you serve Tujia with Chianti or Tsing Tao?

I prefer the typical Xinjiang flatbreads ("nan"?). A little olive oil on the crust and some tomato paste on the deck, add cheese and toppings and you can bake a nice little pizza! I love my toaster oven - Keson - got it at Carrefour for 180 yuan and use it all the time. Haven't tried its rotisserie function yet.

I agree it's salty, in fact too salty (and greasy) for my liking. Wonder why everyone's so into them ack.

Very good ones on that wonderful street behind East China Normal University. (There's a wide assortment of snacks represented on that street.) I kept them in a bag in the microwave (like a breadbox) and then used my electric toaster oven to re-heat the next day. MMmm. Good with hummus.

The make good ones on Xiangyang Lu, near the corner of nanchang Lu, right outside the market. Only 2 kuai. Also, it right next to a great Xinjiang rest. that has 3 and 5 kuai beef sandwiches and wrap. Great stuff. Enjoy.

When eating these things...AVOID the to greasy ones. You should also go for the ones straight from the oven. Monkey King, nice research!

I don't buy into that "tradional fare" concept that this company is kickin ass.....I gotta say, these places are springing up every possible place. Just look in the sidewalks for their greasy signature paper bags. Always a sign you are close. As for the grub, pretty decent, but these little pizza thingys do vary in taste, texture and greasiness - pending location. All being said and done, I was completely sober during all tasings over the past few weeks!!!

They make em tasty near the south-side taxi queue at Xinzhuang station (line 1). The line (yes, line) is huge during most daylight hours and they sell for 2kuai!
