OT--Something *must* have been lost in the translation!
OK, the Christmas dinner/chinese food thread brought this to mind...
One of the great things about living in Toronto is the large Asian community and, therefore, the amazingly great chinese food :-) I suspect that in a lot of the restaurants we go to we only know about half the menu 'cause the rest is written in chinese characters on posters on the wall; and the menus we english-speakers get are often very literal translations from the original language (I love going to the restaurants with Asian friends--I just sit back, let them do the ordering and get amazing food). So anyway...hubby and I are in a Dim Sum place a week or so ago--it's of the variety where you order from a menu rather than graze from carts--and one of the food items was "Deep Fried Boneless Skinless Chicken Feet." We didn't order it, but have been wondering ever since: when you remove the bones and remove the skin from the chicken feet, what's left to deep fry? Marie |
