Chinese Cusine

Unfortunately, there isn’t a photo to document my latest encounter with unique Chinese food but I can describe in full detail what I have tried. This food is about the size of your baby finger and take some skill to eat, for you have to nibble around the cartilage. The texture is rather strange, much like a rubbery chicken, and it is pretty much tasteless. If you haven’t figured out what this delicatessen is already, (you would have to really use your imagination) it is duck tongue. The next food involves tubular organs, again having a rubbery texture but this time there is actually some flavor. This dish is the small intestines of a pig and quite an expensive food I am told. I am sure that they could come to Vancouver and the butcher would gladly just give them these organs so he did not have to discard them himself. They certainly don’t let any part of the animal go to waste.
