Shark Fin Soup ... bleh !!

[MissyP]

So I went to a "restaurant" in SD a couple nights ago and amid other atrocities such as chicken feet, there was shark fin soup...
For some reason, I thought that had become quite unpopular in the US but I guess I was wrong!
:yuck:

I now get up and leave a restaurant that serves Shark Fin Soup.....just out of principle (if I am with others I express my view and allow them to make the decision to go or stay.

Was it horn shark fin soup, Missy? Seriously, I would have left after expressing my feelings (in a polite way). I'm finally going to hold the "Sharkwater" viewing party here in my home after planning to do so for 5 months.

Wow, I didn't know anywhere in the US actually served shark fin soup. I would have made my views on that very clear (to the manager, to my friends, to anyone within earshot) and refused to eat there. I would also take it upon myself to let others know not to eat there for that specific reason.

I agree about the shark's fin soup.

However, don't be dissing my beloved chicken's feet. They're delicious.

Wow.... what resturaunt might I ask? What a shame.

Well I didn't notice the soup selections until I was about to leave, otherwise I would not have eaten there. There was also sea hare stew~ I didn't even know people ate that... double bleh!
It was an chinese place off miramar way ... I won't mention the name but they claim their place is a "super buffet" (hint hint).
I was disgusted.

Sea hare stew? Holy wetsuits, Dr. Bill... I've never even heard of anyone serving that! Did they have sea cucumbers... I've run out of Viagra!

Americans (for the most part) doesn't eat shark fin soup. Asia and the rest of the world....that's another story.
