random bits
some really random bits
3- last night, we had dinner at this supposedly Hong Kong 'steamboat' restaurant. The food looked good and it was fun way to eat. but really, it was more a 'fun' place; good time, average food, 'new' things. you dunk/dip (if you're a lady-like person) what you want in the pot of boiling soup and fish it out when it's done. i'm still a salad kind of person though.
2- i couldn't not take a picture of this. driving home, i thought my eyes were playing tricks on me but no. this couple had a dog 'blowing about' and squashed between them. it was both hilarious and confounding. oh dear, and i thought we're progressing as a country.
1- this, i really dislike. about 2 months ago, they put up this huge billboard on the road. they dug big holes and i'm sure, spent a fortune putting this board up. but up till today, no advertisers have yet to slap their ads on it. probably because of its size, it won't come cheap. and what i really don't like is why they do it in the first place. shouldn't they have made sure someone will want to pay for it before they put it up? before the spend another inordinate amount of money on it? sigh ...

I've eaten a meal like that with some Korean friends. The nice thing about it is that it gives plenty of time to talk while your food cooks. So unlike the american way of eating in which we are usually done in ten minutes or less, and can hardly talk because our mouths are always full.
What is that on the left, below the dumplings and above the greens. It looks like prawns? Or not?
you're right
prawns! - head, tails and all ;)
