Just a short post tonight…..today was jury duty day, and it’s amazing how sitting around for 8-9 hours just saps your energy……
So what is, or more precisely was (She has since moved on….) the Missus’s obsession?
Feet, umm feast your eyes on this:
How the Missus could just wake up one morning, turn to me, and tell me, "I want some chicken feet"….for some reason that just sounds wrong. So, over the past 2 weeks, She’s been feeting feasting on chicken feet, usually getting them 2 orders at a time. So here’s how the Missus rates the chicken feet, which my Filipino friends call "adidas", from the various Dim Sum restaurants in the Convoy area.
1 – Jasmine.
The Missus’s favorite by a mile…to quote, "plump, juicy, nice skin, nice gelatin, lots of black bean…..on the oily/greasy side."
2 – Emerald
"Ok, not as greasy as Jasmine, lots of skin, but not much flavor…"
3 – China Max(photo top of post)
"Bland, not enough black bean, tough…..the toes felt hard like I was eating giant toenails…."
So there you go, more than you ever wanted to know about the Missus’s preferences when it comes to chicken feet. There is one major upside for me…..having the Missus concentrating on Her chicken feet, means more of this stuff for me:
Next time I want Dim Sum all to myself I know what to do….just wave some chicken feet in front of the Missus!
