From:
Thailand
Family: OK, let's eat crab!
Noel(my 5 year old cousin): I want to bring home the crab shells
Family: Why? You have to clean out all the meat before you can keep the shells.
Noel: I know, but I will get Aunty(their housekeeper) to wash it for me. =)
To:
Japan
My grandmother takes a plate of sushi off the conveyor belt and is about ready to munch down on sushi.
Grandfather: WAIT! You have to take out the green paper around the rice to eat!
To:
Indonesia
A plate of fried fish is served.
Calvin: Rotate the plate, I don't want to see the mouth of the fish when I eat it.
Me: *Splits the whole fish lengthwise, exposing the fried black brain of the fish*
Calvin: WAH! Can change to a new fish?
Culinary adventures all over the world during this Labour Day period. =)
