If it is fried… I will eat it.

I am a foodie, but not a snobbish or picky one. I watch Top Chef with a passion, The Food Network is one of my go-to channels while lounging in front of the tube, I read the Food section of The Chronicle every Wednesday, I am on the lookout for new restaurants to try, and I debate the actualities of Rachel Ray’s $40 a Day. Can she really spend $40 a day dining out for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (sometimes with enough money for a snack) in cities such as New York or San Francisco??? I think not. Rachel Ray, you are a liar!

Most nights of the week, I do eat out. By the end of the week, my Comme des Garçons wallet does feel a little bit emptier. Fortunately, thanks in part to my job; I’m able to dine at some of the more swanky restaurants in San Francisco such as Boulevard or Two (formerly Hawthorne Lane) without spending a penny. Thanks job! No matter how much I enjoy a nice steak with pan-fried string beans and truffle mashed potatoes, I will not hesitate to scarf down some KFC fried chicken, a couple of crispy tacos, or some French fries.

Much to my delight, I stumbled upon this while reading the San Francisco Eater blog.

This is The Waterbar’s version of fish and chips! A whole fried fish on top of a bed of French fries. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! This rock cod fish is only served during lunchtime and at $28, it will set you back a few dollars. Some might be squeamish seeing the whole intact fish on their plate but I’m not, I’m Chinese. Thanks.

Somebody, please take me!
