This is not MY dinner. It isn't dinner time yet.
Twenty years ago, I met a lovely young Chinese woman who was then a student studying English in the local university. Her home town was down on southern coast of China, near the border with Vietnam. Her family were/are big in the seafood distribution business, shipping live seafood across China.
A few years later, she went off for further study in Australia where she acquired a master's degree and a husband, then settled. She has two lovely kids.
She was never a cook, but did once briefly part-own a restaurant in Melbourne. She looked after the business side, while a partner looked after the food.
Anyway, yesterday she sent me a message saying that she has started a routine of every Wednesday cooking and eating something she has never had before. Of course, she started with seafood.
So here are the images she sent me (posted here with her permission).

I told her it looked great (especially for a first effort) and, although she said she enjoyed it, she also said she still prefers Liuzhou food! The city's food. Not mine! Although, I did once cook for her and her sister and don't recall any complaints.
