the restaurant At the border of the river there are several nice fish-restaurants. |
|
catched fish I After being seated, you get tea and a paper to order with. You go outside again and point the fish you like and explain the way you want it prepared. Being a foreigner, this brings a lot of people around me, all trying to be helpfull, but mainly just curious. It is fun. |
|
vegetables And here you point the vegetables you like to eat. |
|
the setup This is the setup of the table. With very hard peanuts and big pieces of garlic. |
|
The orderform Off course wants everyone working in the restaurant to know what I am going to have, so everyone passing my table picks up the paper, studies it and puts it back. And I hope the smiles that they give me are from their satisfaction about the choices I made... |
|
Eggplant Eggplant is one of my favourite vegetables, one of the first I know the name of in chinese. This was really a nice prepared dish! |
|
prepared fish I A nice white fish, arranged (and cut) so I don't have to turn it over the eat the bottomhalf (what would bring bad luck). It is surprisingly easy to eat with chopsticks and there are not a lot of fishbones to bother about. |
|
catched fish II Next day I eat here again, to everyone's surprise and joy! This time I take a zebra-fish. |
|
catched shrimps Big shrimps, only a few (as I eat my meal alone). How to prepare gives some trouble, but at the end everyone seams happy after my ordering. I am curious what I will get... |
|
brocoli With a lot of garlic, offcourse! |
|
prepared fish II The tast not much different than the day before. |
|
prepared shrimps They where cut in half but not out of their shells. Food to be eaten with bare hands, I deceided. Within a minute I received a bowl with water to clean my fingers after the dish. Fantastic taste... |

mellon as desert After dinner a slice of mellon is put on the table. |
