Love No Reservations... his political commentary is about the only one I enjoy.
And Bizzare Foods. Awesome. I actually had an Andrew Zimmern moment at the sushi place we go to.
I asked the Sushi Chef who is Thai by the way if he had Topiko... which is flying fish roe. He didnt understand Topiko so i tried to describe the fish... AH he said and nodded we have.... he fired off an order to the kitchen....
I thought Uh Oh... about ten minutes later a plate of french fries came out with dipping sauce... Frys with Eyes..... Whole fish about the size of a french fry breaded up and fried crispy head and all. In order to not offend I said Oooh Thank you.... and gave it a taste. Fishy but yummy.... Dean and I polished it off.
A couple of days later I talked to his wife who speaks and understands English a little more in depth.... She laughed apparently The fish were his favorite snack and not even on the menu....
I recognised the species too. A form of Goby....
