Authentic Chinese food is terrifying and delicious, all at the same time. Happy Dog Year!

Why do they have full sized corn cobs? I have been lied to with this mini corn crap!
Skyjack567
You have no idea. I never once had that orange crap or chicken balls or spring rolls.
AssamLaksa
I see you are in Taiwan. Happy Chinese New Year!

hesbeginningtobelieve
Are those black things fermented eggs on the top right?
Munchman347
Probably 'Tea Eggs', but I could be wrong. I usually am...
Unagi604
I thought it was those ginger eggs that come with the pork knuckles but there's no way to tell for sure.

lunar year
ChJonRu
You do know Chinese calendar is not lunar calendar, right?
Trinhsauce
It's not just the Chinese that use it.
ChJonRu
I don't mind whoever use it. DONOT use it and pretend it is something else.
hyohyun
Its tomorrow
hyohyun
Why you do this . Do you have premature celabratory urges?
hyohyun
Welp sorry Ive been living for the past 4 days replaying Metal gear solid v and forgot that china is one day ahead.
yuconfused
Its a whole 3 day thing
yuconfused
Vietnamese new year for me. Thats why we just call it lunar to those who dont know
MobileUserGundam
I'm from a Chinese background and I'm marrying a Vietnamese woman. I shifted pretty damn quickly to "Lunar New Year." Chúc mừng năm mới!
yuconfused
I still say happy chinese new year at times. Either way its Tet
ThelostWorldofAtlantis
Holy shit , can I come over?!
orlacrab1
They are currency in hell
blockatiel
depends, can you get to Taiwan? :p
AssamLaksa
Damn, you are missing out! Did you if you're single, you get red packets of blessed money?
orlacrab1
Technically the meal is prepared for the ancestors. Though the livings will eat it eventually. See the stack of paper at table corner?
ashmenon
Any time, man. Malaysia always has a seat at the table for the hungry.
Lebeats
It all looks good but the soup with the corn really caught my eye!! ????
pistachiomoustache
It makes me think of sancocho. Oh, delicious.
Lebeats
Is that chicken or pork?
pistachiomoustache
Looks like chicken. Sancocho has chicken and beef. Ohh the goodness.
yourmothersvag
Learned the glory of that soup in the Dominican Republic. Now I'm sad I can't find it in the US. Bless that delicious soup. I miss it.
pistachiomoustache
My grandmother and aunt make it. I want to learn how to make it since I moved.
isitworthitthenlemmelurkit
At least 35% of this looks terrifying to my delicate western sensibilities.
blockatiel
nah, Taiwanese food is mostly safe for delicate westerners
pistachiomoustache
All of this looks delicious to my Western tongue.
ottotravel
I would try it all. I am for all Holidays, any religion, any reason, MORE HOLIDAYS!!!
mordain23
those green things are vegetables, they are nice...
isitworthitthenlemmelurkit
The green things, from what I can tell, are a single bowl of steamed broccoli, which is nasty and has almost no nutrients
ashmenon
Don't worry, Chinese dishes (especially traditional ones) typically aren't that spicy. Lots of steaming and roasting.
isitworthitthenlemmelurkit
What is the huge bowl of ostrich eggs in the back?
Unagi604
The black ones? Looks like the eggs out of pork knuckle and ginger stew. Basically pickled chicken eggs in sweet ginger vinegar.
ashmenon
Might be herbal tea eggs actually
KanyeWesticularCancer
I don’t speak Chinese so I had to use google translate but I wrote this for you!

It was here that RetailCat learned their Japanese studying was coming out alright.

Was it the number 300 that gave it away, or just the complete lack of paragraph structure?
blockatiel
i had it before the three hundred honestly. Got it at 'what did you say'
voulge
Oh lol I was trying to decipher it via my rudimentary Chinese, didn't even get that far before it clicked
macbi

Fucking big ass prawns!
vikingvampireangel
Langoustines*
notacobra
They're banana prawns I believe, found in all the waters between Brisbane and Seoul
Junktrunkjunkie
I don't see a banana. I really need a banana right now.

SomeGiantIdiot

You suckuh dah headt! - Asian woman in Hawaii who taught me how to correctly eat a prawn

Racist against aliens, you are.
Kindamoist
First thing I thought looking at this also
dafawkudoin
I think they’re going to eat them... But to each their own..
BubbleMcBubbles
With their toiny shrimp whiskers
GravyWonTon
Street vendors in S. Korea sell them, with salt seasoning. Fucking delicious after a night of drinking.
watcher2099
I have yet to find the prawn vendors here, but I love the chicken on a stick
GravyWonTon
It's so good. I was in Dongducheon, many years ago. Military. Where area you at? I wonder how much has changed since I've been there.

Language down vote. I am just tired of it.
Xen300
Those are crayfish, aren't they?
Greymalum
Crayfish as so small compared, plus crays are freshwater.
JackCanty
PoppinLochNessHopster
Crayfish are 1:10 scale lobsters, not shrimp.
justforthis42
nope, prawns/shrimp

FernandoRumdebum
Langustines, or something like that, dunno how you spell it
Xen300
Langoustine is French for scampi. I think they're smaller than the ones in the picture though.
Vagetarian
Phrasing.. But if that's what gets you off, who am I to judge?

Anyone, please, how do you phonetically sound out "Xi"
ashmenon
I usually pronounce it like the "tzee" in "yahtzee"
twoplustwoisfish
It's sound like he...so gong xi ( he) fat choi.
blockatiel

arrbos
A native speaker at work (translating "Cixin Liu" for me) said that "xi" is more like "shyi" and it doesn't really exist in English.
TwoCoats
Nice! Thanks a bunch
