"Tea Smoked Duck is one of the most famous dishes of Sichuan Province,
contrary to what most people believe it to originate from Hunan. Smoking
was a culinary craft mastered by the Sichuan people as a better way to
preserve flavor and the longevity of foods without refrigeration. A good
tea smoked duck should have a haunting tea smoked flavor, well rendered,
tender meat and a crackling skin. It can be served with buns and
accompanied by a semisweet bean sauce."

Happy repast!

I guess that doesn't count as "foreign muck"? :)

What is the special?

Over here, "special" in the Chinese meal context means a bit of
everything: roast pork, beef, chicken, prawns, maybe some duck.
The special is usually good value with plenty of protein, not just
e. g. a few prawns and lots of veg.

Have you ever eaten slugs?

[Creon]

I've eaten escargot, with that wonderful
garlicy butter, which can be dipped with
the bread.

What do you eat? Slugs? Salisbury Steak? or...?

Not my choice of thing to eat, I'm afraid. IMO Escargot is no more than
a vehicle for the garlic butter and have little flavour of their own. As
I'm not a great liker of garlic, I'll just pass, thanks.

Something went on, because google groups has ramped up their security versus hackers. I have to identify cars just to post to talk.bizarre.
