Weird Chinese Menu Items
It's fun to read Chinese menus. Once you get past the misspellings and have a few laughs, try checking out the strange offerings. I found these dish listings at Asian Pearl in Fremont the last time the wife and I visited. First, have you had goose webs? I've had duck's feet and chicken's feet, which are essentially the same thing as goose webs. So next time, I should try them. I think.
Should I have them with sea cucumber in a clay pot?
Or maybe braised in abalone sauce?
And speaking of sea cucumber and abalone, should I get the braised combination? It's pretty expensive.
I could get some pork belly and frog, but I'm leaning toward the "grab." I think they misspelled "crab," but I could be mistaken.
Oh, and how could I forget the goose intestines ... stir-fried, no less. If I try any of these, I'll report back.
