How to Order Food in China Without Speaking Perfect Chinese (Works 99% of the Time)
Step 1: Open WeChat/Dianping/Alipay
Step 2: Scan the QR code on the table (almost every restaurant has one)
Step 3: Menu pops up with photos + English/translation
Step 4: Point at pictures, choose, pay instantly
Step 5: Food arrives in 5–10 mins. No talking needed
Bonus hack: If there’s no QR code, open your camera, point at the Chinese menu, and use the built-in translator (WeChat & Alipay both have it). Magic.
I used to be terrified of ordering. Now I eat like a local every day.
