@annie: Well, you just made the 100th comment on Cut & Taste. But there is no prize. Carry on.

FYI (and Chris) – I’m not responding merely because I’ve been shamed! I haven’t commented because I wanted to ask my mom about the dish that Caleb inquired about. Although, I haven’t asked her yet, so I guess I am slacking…

Caleb – It’s fish in the center of the plate. I’m not sure what kind of fish, but it was first fried and then seasoned in a liquid. Again, not sure what’s in the liquid. The texture of the fish is pretty hard. Those unfamiliar with Chinese cuisine would certainly think it was way overcooked. The taste is rather difficult to describe, I guess it’s savory and a bit smokey, perhaps also seasoned with star anise.

USUN – I can’t believe I actually managed to read what you wrote, being a Chinese school drop-out and all… But thanks! I’ll go someday when school no longer consumes my life.

Ana – Yes! Oh it was so good, so good…

The plate in the middle of the table, the one with the perimeter of what I do believe to be slices of hundred-year-old eggs…I’m really interested in what is in the center of that plate.
