Gastronomical Japanese Cuisine

I bet most of you have never seen such unique gastronomical bling bling cuisine. It's my first time seeing such awesome presentation of sashimi on a bowl of shaved ice in the shape of an igloo. I bet the sashimi tasted just as nice and I was salivating away as hubby dipped the cool and fresh salmon and butter fish into the wasabi and Japanese soya sauce.

Hairy Crabs From Hong Kong

The special scissors and chopsticks for eating crabs.


When my sil from HK came a couple of days ago, she brought along some live hairy crabs (tai chak hai). Though I'd seen them when we went to Hong Kong 2 years ago, but we didn't get a chance to eat them. I'd badly wanted to sample them but again, I can't try them as I'm preggers now. It was indeed very hard to resist my temptation seeing everyone eating piping hot steamed fresh hairy crabs with special black vinegar sauce and ginger that my sil had prepared. They looked so good, especially the creamy yellow crab roe oozing out from the crabs. Torture!
