The Honeymoon’s over…
Sunday, September 28th, 2008The food, the food, the food! How’s the food?
I have to say that the food in China has been both an amazing and extremely interesting experience. We have had some absolutely fantastic and inspiring meals…but with the good there has also been the bad and the ugly… And I mean ugly! Over the past two weeks our taste buds (or stomachs) have been bombarded with extraordinary dishes such as pig’s ear, pig’s heart, donkey, pig’s face, cooked blood, dog, and the unforgettable chicken’s head (that I was lucky enough to enjoy). Or actually not enjoy at all. It’s unreal, I didn’t think half this stuff was eatable and for the most part my assumption was correct. I’m not quite sure how these people do it because those dishes were down right offensive. lol. Anyways, I’ve since relinquished the nickname ‘take one for the team Kevin’ and I’ll be sticking to a much gentler diet over the next few days.
Oh yeah, big ups (congratulations) to Shenzhou 7!
***Note to our readers: All of the dishes above were ordered (and tasted) without our knowledge of it’s ingrediants…We have since taken a more active role in the ordering process.
