Janet Yellen's Beijing visit has resulted in some unexpected success – dramatically boosting business for a Yunnan restaurant chain while bringing jian shou qing into the national limelight

I can’t stop myself,” another mushroom fan told Xinhua. “We often ask one person at the table to try one first, and if he is OK, we will follow and start eating.” The general belief is that you have to fully cook the fungi to rid them of hallucinogenic properties. CNN reached out to the branch of Yi Zuo Yi Wang that Yellen’s party reportedly ate at.
