Living RazorShell Seafood

Few nights ago~
Jeri treated me out for a hotpot dinner in Shanghai Restaurant (located on Portland Street, Aberdeen).
The restaurant specialises in fresh seafood (recommended!)... Not that I never seen living sea-creatures to be cooked for dinner, but it was the 1st time seeing living Razor clams!


Here's the photo i took with my iphone (T_T I should have brought my camera!) 
I even took a video of it! 


I tried these things before, (my family are big fans of seafood ;)).. but weren't as big! 
The thing is... I never thought it looked so much like a WORM! (and I couldn't stand these creepy wrigglers!)  


The shell popped open once it was put into the boiling soup~ I was shocked by the real ugly alien looks of that creature. I didn't remember eating such a thing! 

I was afraid to try at first. So Jeri took the bite.  
I took my guts to eat the next cooked one afterwards.
But...
I couldn't take my mind off that horrible vision while chewing its 'tail'. 
At the end...

I couldn't finish it. 
(Hardly even a bite)

How bout you guys? Any of you love Razor clams??
 I know its a common seafood but I seriously never thought I would feel this way all the sudden!

Anyway~
Beloved Jerry Chan! Thank you for the treat! (^_^) 
My flatmates Sa and Nano went back home to Brunei 2 days ago T_T And Jeri is on the plane to Hong Kong now..
T_T I'm feeling so lonely T_T
My cousin Faridah is coming to visit me in a few days though!!  ^o^  So looking forward to it!!

Extra Bits


World Cup! *_* Not much of a fan (due to my football-obsessed boyfriend).. lol...
Nevertheless, seems like my holiday's going to be all about it. ^^
Sa bought a whole FIFA World Cup 2010 sticker box (containing 100 packs) and actually recorded a video on the process of sticking them onto the album! Played along with the theme song, Waka Waka :) Love it!

Im not sure how to explain as well :P We have to take our roles as their predators in order to stabilise the world's food chain~ so I don't mind eating hehe.

The point there is that that Razorclam looks like a worm to me!

Ya lahh. Doesn't feel like eating it. But most seafood don't look good when they're still alive. Would prefer not to look at 'em b4 they are cooked. hehe.
