Do you like your steak rare ? Or steak tartare ?
As for sweetbreads, they're simply delicious, mild and toothsome. I like kidneys, grilled, devilled or in steak and kidney pudding. I like liver too, and have very fond memories of an early breakfast in the Blue Mountains in a Croat run cafe. Big, big serving of lamb's fry, really hit the spot.
I'd rather eat that than McDonalds or KFC.Vive la liberte. Noor Inayat Khan, Dachau.

I've tried quite a few feet in China, chicken and pork for sure, but did not care for them since it seemed to be a lot of work for a little taste.
But I do love real Sichuan foods, loaded with the numbing Sichuan peppers and regular chili peppers.
The Chinese guys seem to enjoy pushing my gross out envelope, but I found that they get grossed out by rare meats.We're sorry, the voices in my head are not available at this time. Please try back again soon.

A friend from Singapore was telling me about what his maid told him her village used to eat. I didn't realize that water scorpions were edible, and neither did he. He gets disgusted by the notion of drinking a glass of cow's milk- he can handle a yoghurt or ice cream, but not a whole glass of cow's milk.
I do very much like Szechuan cuisine but Cantonese is still my favourite... Hainanese rice brings back fond memories too.Vive la liberte. Noor Inayat Khan, Dachau.

Restaurant food everywhere is typically not very healthy. Deep-fried, lots of oil, no problem.
The thing is, that restaurant food is supposed to be a treat, if it was like home cooking, you'd likely not want to go.
So they make it extra sinful.
Most of the Chinese that I know eat a simple diet at home.
I will say that most restaurants in China, even if they are themed as some other style, still have quite a few if not most of their dishes in Cantonese style.
My personal favorite is the steamed scallops with chopped garlic (lots) on a small bed of glass noodles.We're sorry, the voices in my head are not available at this time. Please try back again soon.

Yeah, echinoderms as a rule can stay on something else's menu, not mine.
Urchin are nice for attracting fish if you're diving (especially if spearfishing) in the kelp forests. Just pick one up and fish are all over you from nowhere.When all else fails, blame brown people. | Hire a teen, while they still know it all. | Trump-Palin 2016. "You're fired." "I quit."
