Last night I met up with V for some dumplings from my favorite dumpling house in central, Yuan Dumpling. I always get broccoli and the vegetarian dumplings, they are SO good. I also like their hot and sour soup... It's really hot here, not exactly hot and sour soup weather. V also ordered the 1000 year-old egg with tofu, mmm... I will try anything, but I explained to her it's not the flavor of the egg - it's the texture. Why does the egg turn to jelly? WHY? Something about an egg suddenly turning green and gelatinous... I don't know, maybe I'm too white, but I just cannot get down. Sure I'll eat marrow, cartilage, but whenever I see those eggs I just get seriously grossed out.
