I thought there might have been a thread. I just wanted to add a couple of things. Maybe someone can do the honours as I don't know nearly enough. I would recommend Hai Yan Da Jiu Dian (I think that's the name, I can have it confirned) as a place to stay. It's about 1KM from the train station, very near to the Portman restaurant. Prices very reasonable during the Ice Festival, for such a nice place. Only 238RMB for a triple. Friendly staff too, didn't charge us for the first night, even though we arrived at 3.30AM and went straight to sleep. For grub don't miss the 'Russia Cafe' on Zhongyan Da Jie. It's listed in the Lonely Planet. Best food I've eaten in ages.I miss it so much. Particularly the Pilsohki (spelling? cheekygal? ) think of a huge bao zi but five times more hao chi The people weren't all that friendly. I think there's something in the LP about that too. Not sure why? I was also expecting people's mandarin to be really clear but I didn't find that to be the case. Maybe I was just talking to the wrong people.

It's on the "to go to" list but ain't never been there yet. HOWEVER I think that it's the place that non-Dave said the beer was some of the best going around.
