This time we went to the BBQ place in town - that is pronounced beeb-bee-cue, not barbecue. It is a real Cambodian experience, as it's always packed with locals but rarely sees any foreigners - although there are a few now that the word is getting out.
We began with rice and beef (and chicken for me).....pretty average.....a couple pitchers of beer.... then this fried corn dish which was amazing!.......then some frogs - normal size this time. These ones come piled on a plate and you just pull their legs off and eat them as if they were chicken legs.
That was all followed up with duck smothered in ant sauce. And not one or two ants - the entire sauce is ants. They're dead, of course, having been cooked at a high temperature. But they really do stick in your teeth.
This doesn't sound like your thing? As least we opted for duck instead of cow's uterus.
Enjoy your dinner!

Maybe calves' liver isn't so bad after all.mom
ReplyDeleteSounds like an interesting diet. Are you writing out the recipes for when you get home? Mom might like to cook some of those for you!! We have lots of ants but the cow uterus may be harder to get (most of them are being used right now)Alligator pepperettes seem rather tame now don't they.
ReplyDeleteDane's off to Whitehorse on Tuesday. He was wondering if he might encounter moose with ant sauce?????
