I Ate What? 2007 Eating Out Roundup

While many of you are probably reflecting on what you've accomplished this year, I have no deep ruminations for you. Instead, how about reflecting on a year of eating out? Anyone else got any favorites to add to the list? Perfectly Sweet - Alhambra 1The prettiest. From Perfectly Sweet - Alhambra. Panda and Puppy Ramen 2The cutest. Puppy and panda-faced ramen. Pa Pa Walk 10The smelliest. Stinky tofu from Pa Pa Walk - San Gabriel. The funniest. Semen tea from 85 Degrees C Tea House in San Gabriel. Wing Hop Fung Traditional Chinese Medicine Luncheon 7The healthiest. Bird's nest from a Chinese herbal luncheon sponsored by Wing Hop Fung. Uzbekistan - Los Angeles 9The most exotic (in theory if not actuality). From Uzbekistan - Los Angeles. The weirdest. Frog fallopian tubes!!! I'm saving the explanation of this dish for my newest post in the new year. ;) Happy 2007 everyone! Here's to another year of great eats. ***** 1 year ago today, my unsophisticated wine palate and travel memories of Sirens Valley wine caves in Hungary.

  4. Nikki,
    Of course photos. Posts are boring without photos. :)

    Hedgehog,
    The semen tea post is the 85 Degrees link. And as for frog fallopian tubes, I'll get to that in the next post. :)

    GC,
    Please do. I didn't get nearly as many dirty jokes as I was expecting. ;)

  5. WC--thanks for doing the "work" so we don't have to...like trying the frog fallopian tubes. I'll wait for the post, but I hope it includes the mindset of the first person to say...."hmmm...fallopian tubes...think I'll make some for dinner".

  11. Mary Ruth,
    I always do wonder how someone decides to eat some of the crazy things they do! And trust me, if I had known what they were, I'm not sure I would have tried it.

    Daphne,
    Heh, glad it amused you.

    Danggit,
    I bet the ramen would be a it with your baby. :)

    W&S,
    Yup. :)

    Alex,
    Gross! I don't want them to look like fallopian tubes.

    BC,
    Happy New Year to you!

    Anon,
    Yes, it was a real rose. I removed it before cutting the cake though.
