bye bye frog!

On Sunday we went out for dinner to this restaurant and ordered some dishes, some just by pointing at the characters and looking at the pictures. At least one of us could read and speak Chinese. But also translating the name of the dish and seeing the pictures did not really help us to know what was actually in there. After we had ordered the waiter took one of these frogs out of the aquarium and we joked around about who just ordered frog. well...

As the non vegetarians tried the "meat" the noticed this froggy skin and pieces!
aaah!! We had that frog on our table!!!! chopped and cooked though, but it was that frog!!!
It was just so funny and unbelievable because, of course, we did not want this little (no, actually big) frog to be killed and eaten by us.

Now, you may wonder if I ate it or not...

Duh, how could i miss this opportunity of a life time?!! :)
And it actually tasted really good! Of course, it was quite gross at first, but as soon as i got it in my mouth, I knew why french people sold (or sell) it as a delicacy.
The meat of the frog was very tender and it tasted a little like chicken and fish combined (well, I could be wrong because i do not eat chicken:)
But don't be afraid, I won't add it to my daily menu! I will still prefer to be a “Vegetarian", even though I made this one exception...lol :P

I hope no one of you got a heart attack.

Otherwise you should consult your doctor and avoid reading my blog! :)

bye bye,
