In the evening, Ovechkin had dinner at upscale restaurant DaDong with former NHL player Alexei Kovalev, representatives from the NHL, and some local hockey players. The dishes they enjoyed included a goose liver pate (foie gras) that resembled cherries, Kung Pao prawns, roast pigeon, Peking duck, and a shot of the Chinese spirit called baijiu.
Ovechkin's trip to China as an international ambassador for the NHL concludes on Friday.
