An Attempt to Eat Dog

We went with some friends to a restaurant that supposedly serves pretty good dog dishes.  Yellow in particular was very excited about this.  To our dismay (or Red's relief) it apparently wasn't dog season anymore, so we had to settle for donkey and sweet and sour fish.  The idea is that as the dog is man's best friend and is warming to our hearts, it could be eaten in the winter in order to bring warmth to your body too.  A side note is that we haven't met many Chinese who actually eat dog, and several of our students were quite terrified when they heard that we had tried, so don't be confused that its an everyday dish.  It's actually quite expensive too, and who knows where the dog is coming from (maybe just from the street). 

Here's the sweet and sour fish, which was quite delicious!

This is the donkey dish, which was really spicy and not too bad.

Here we are trying donkey for the first time.
