Canton, China via Brooklyn: Eating Live Shrimp
Besides their tendency to suppress free speech, befoul the environment and abuse human rights, China is a pretty awesome place. And more gastronomically varied then we could ever hope to cover in a single meal. So we will be doing multiple Chinese navigeatioins, of which this is the first.
Recently we tagged along with New York’s awesome weird eats club The Gastronauts for a meal they organized in Brooklyn’s Chinatown at the restaurant Pacificana. On the menu: Duck tongues, goose web and drunken shrimp—aka live shrimp doused in alcohol then eaten while still squirming. We’re classifying this meal as our taste of China’s Canton region. If you happen to be an inebriated crustacean, we advise you never visit.
