Following from the recent restaurant review thread here, what's the weirdest crap ever to pass your tonsils?
I'll start:
- Live fish & lobster (was still moving)
- Intestines
- Sea slugs
- Sea Cucumber
- Donkey, Emu, Crocodile, Dog, Snake
- Turtle
- Duck heart
- Duck tongue
- Cow Tongue
- Sheep Testicles
- Shark Fin Soup
- Penis
- Tripe
- Pig Ears
- Jellyfish
- Anything on the endangered species list....
Bugger it.... I lived in China for 3 years so ate so much weird stuff I can't even remember anymore, probably because I was quite intoxicated at the time!
Wierd Crap You've Eaten

ps: ox tongue; dog (probably, in Philippines) fish eyeball (under duress) hot dog (yes, a hot dog, look it up). My favorite: hair pie soup, though that doesn't qualify as wierd, hu?
Not weird, but a funny story.
I often attempt to cook at home some of the things I've eaten whilst away.
So off I go the the Asian markets in Melbourne to purchase the unknown and then attempt to cook it.
Purchased what I thought was some sort of dried mushroom and added a generous amount to a stew I was making.
WRONG !!!!!.
About 6 hrs later I lost control of all bowl movements and spent the next 30hr's sitting on the shithouse pushing my eyeballs back up my arse.
When I was able to return to work I showed the packet to a Chinese college who laughed a lot when I told them what happened, she explained they were for medicinal purposes only, a few grains should be made into a tea and used to make you "Regular"
Moral to the story.
- Well for the first time in my life I was a regular sort of guy.
Thankfully it only lasted for 30 hrs.

I refuse to go out with nothing more than a whimper followed by a small farting sound and a shit stain on my bed sheets..
Just thought I'd share that with you.

Basically, I hate Asian food. I always seek out Barang/Farang places.
Decent looking places are an exception, and I have been surprised from time to time. But I basically stick to the kind of joints the other guys talk about and have/ have had a business interest in. CA2, Freebird, most of the joints on the river.
I have a few favorites in BKK, HKG and others for distinctly Asian cuisine and atmosphere with some sort of dancing like Apsara for a date. Not a Westernized joint. Otherwise I'm happy with pizza.
Is there a restaurant in PP for that sort of entertainment? Authentic Khmer cuisine with Apsara? No black ants or dog on the menu?
