Re: Prawns - OMG!
It was, too. Do you get raw/live prawns that colour?
I'm a total hypocrite - I love drunken prawns but I hate it when they bring them to the table live and pour the booze over them, so I have them do it out the back.
edit: Although this request got missed when we had friends over from the UK (to Sg) and I have a cracking photo of their expressions.

Yes she does on the smaller ones, i will also eat the tails sometimes on the small ones. Not much left of a fish head when she gets hold of one, eyeballs and all, tendons, cartildge and most of the innards of an animal seem fair game. But cheese apparently is disgusting

Eating cheese makes us ang mohs/westerners smelly, so I'm told. Fair call - a lot of Asians are lactose intolerant. (As am I, actually )

Well nothing is wasted, that's for sure, so you can't knock it. We used to live in the thick of all the local food courts and coffee shops, but I still couldn't bring myself to try "pig organ soup", and never saw the attraction of chicken feet.

I would actually recommend going to "No Signboard" seafood restaurant at Geylang (round the corner from my old house!) or the East Coast Seafood Centre. Take a look at the link in my sig for more details. There are other places more off the beaten track but not great to get to without a car.

I was brought up in Hong Kong so I have no squeemish feelings around prawns........yum! You've just cooked a creature, it's head juice has to go somewhere! I draw the line at sucking the heads though. My Dad was always considered cool by teenage friends cos he'd dare them to eat the eyes on huge fish - he always won!
