Photography Work-Yangzhou China (Part II)

Lushi ancient messuages, a very big messuage established by a successful salter. Nowadays, it had been transformed to a top quality restaurant.

Chinese ancient messuages always has tall wall and small doors. Tall wall is on guard for thieves. Small door means money can not be divulged.

This is 7 cephali disc of Lushi ancient messuages restaurant. Include: asparagus, duck egg,  edible tree fungus, wine-soaked shrimp, fried bean curd...

This a light refreshments before main dish. It's "oil-grilled turnip cake". Very popular food in China.

This is a very, very, very special dish. It is a fish. However, it's not an ordinary fish. It's swellfish (rabbit fish/globefish). This kind of fish is toxic because they don't want to be attacked. But theirs' meat is very delicious. In the ancient China, many people want to eat this fish. Many of them die because of the toxic.

There are many clever Chinese chefs can cooked it and take the toxic out. But sometimes they will failed. So if we want to eat swellfish, chef who cooked it needs to eat it first. 

This time, chef has succeed. Because I had eaten this delicious food and hasn't die.
