Attempt # 2 at Acquiring a Taste for Stinky Tofu

April 8, 2004

I like the i d e a of stinky tofu but I haven’t yet acquired a taste for it. The version depicted above is fried. I thought this would diminish the aroma reminiscent of human excrement that this foodstuff can’t help but exude. Sadly the frying seems to have had no affect upon the smell of stinky tofu. It’s a pity that I can’t yet upload an ODOR.

Wonton Soup

April 7, 2004

Heaven in a bowl. The wontons look like almond tree flowers and just melt away in your mouth. The soup broth is seasoned with little itsy bitsy salted dried shrimps. At first you think an insect has gotten into your bowl but then you realise its an a q u a t i c insect and its all OK again.
