Fish Soup

Tom and I have gotten quite brave. Last Friday we wandered down the street by South Campus armed with a small notebook of words to order ourselves some lunch. We wanted dumpling and soup with tomato and egg. We recieved a HUGE plate of scrambled eggs with some green vegetable of the grassy type mixed in and fish soup, as pictured below.

Mmmm. Yes, you are seeing that correctly. There is a fish, a whole fish, laying in a bowl of water with some odd yellow vegetables. It was actually quite tasty.

Not to be detered by this small mistake, we tried again the other night. This time we indeed did get dumplings and soup with tomato and eggs. Plus some other random vegetable dish that was very tasty. Then we had to call Jessica to find out the word for "box" because we had too much food.

Progress is progress.

EWWWWWWWWWWWW! I am glad it tasted good at least...I probably wouldn't have been brave enough to eat it. I like that chinese people eat such dramatically different flavors.

Maybe i can put some hotdogs in my pocket when I come wisit. "is that a hot dog in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" :)
