That name intrigues me. Is he jumping over the wall to get to it or away from it?

 

The original dish from Fujian province was basically a soup built in sharks' fin. It was so deliciously aromatic that vegetarian Buddhist monks jumped over the wall of their compound to get at it.

 

Well, that 's the legend anyway. Today, it has all but disappeared due to increased official awareness of the evil of shark fin consumption.

The pizza hut dish is just bovine excrement for a dreadful mess of ingredients selected by a committee of committees with no knowledge of basic flavours, culture or  basic sanity.
