Did anyone see this program on BBC4 last night? First of a four parter, here's a <linkety link> to the bbc website. You can catch the first episode again on iplayer.

As the title suggests this is a behind the scenes of the West Lake restaurant in Hunan province, China. Really fascinating fast paced-documentary. I particularly liked the Stephen Chow-esque cooking challenge that showed live snakes being prepared and the amazing fried live fish dish. Just jaw-dropping stuff.

And that poor duck!!!! I have never seen anything like that before. :blink: You have been warned if you are in anyway unsure whether you are really a carnivore then do not watch this part of the show.

Please someone say they watched this show too.

I admit it looks like a burst colostomy bag but omigod does it taste good...
