Great Wall Granola: My Answer to Cereal in BJ

My morning ritual of a giant bowl Crispix cereal with low-fat milk came to a screeching halt once I moved to Beijing 5 years ago.  When I was back in California for Christmas a few years ago, I even contemplated packing a box or two of Crispix cereal into my suitcase to bring back to Beijing.  You might call me clinically insane for seriously considering that, but that’s honestly how much I miss my morning cereal ritual!  Not only is Crispix totally non-existent in China, so are many other of my favorite brands and to be honest, the ones that are available here are just crazy expensive.

So you can imagine my excitement when I heard about Great Wall Granola (thanks to theBeijinger.com).  This granola is totally homemade by Nola restaurant’s former head chef Brandon Trowbridge who makes the granola fresh with maple syrup and pecans!

One order (RMB 98) gets you 1 kilo of granola, which is equivalent to about a two-week supply.  If you pay RMB 100, then the extra 2RMB will donated to Compassion for Migrant Children (CMC), a non-profit organization founded to help China’s urban migrant children through social and educational programs.

To place your order, just email: order@greatwallgranola.com with your delivery address and phone number (free delivery within 4th Ring Road and Wudaokou).
