We have a few places around here that advertise all you can eat Chinese Buffet and Sushi. I often think someone should sell some type of food poisioning insurance right out side the door.

That just means that they have the best food. Usually when I travel to places like the philippines and thailand, the worst the places looks the better the food has been. Now I do not recommend this as a normal practice but it hasn't failed me yet. Either that or I have gotten food poisioning so many times that I have now immune to improperly cooked food.

Reminds me of the time I walked into a hole-in-the-wall Chinese restaurant with a buddy. Someone had a small dog chained up to the front of the building. My buddy said "Oh, look. Catch of the day". That made me laugh, a lot!

Not so far from the truth .. some of the Pacific Rim countries do eat dog. It was offered when we were Macao. And, dogs roam freely in the streets there. Double !

I spent six months in China and saw a lot of stranger things than dog get eaten.

I was teaching a software class to a bunch of Chinese guys that didn't speak English. At the break, they took me out for lunch and did the ordering. My first meal in China was: Cooked Duck tongues, Fish intestines, and these huge boiled beetles (served just like it sounds, a big oval plate with dead 2" water beetles on it).

If you are ever in the East and you go to a restaurant with round wooden tables with about a 8" hole in the center with some dark stain around it.....

just go somewhere else.

You've tried monkey brains? They had this place in Thailand that did that. The poor guy was alive and the patrons would mallet the monkey to death. Then viola! Monkey stomped brains.

We went to eat sushi every friday with some friends so the guy that owns little tokyo got to know us really well. He would give us new stuff to try. I knew that I had to eat whatever he made for us or I would offend him. Many times it took everything I had to swallow some of that stuff. And I like oysters so its not like I have a problem eating slimey stuff. Its when it has eyes and it talks back to you that I have issues with.
