Rain, rain, go away...

Ruh roh...on PCH to Quality Seafood and it's raining cats and dawgs.

Lucky us, twas beautiful by the time we got here. Thank you LA traffic?

 Fishing boats to catch all the fresh 'quality seafood'

"Hello ladies, you guys wanted two sea urchins?".."No sir, we would like four of em"

 Hey look its for sale!

 Look at the clams opening their mouth to lick the lemon juice.. :)

Hello Urchin, It was painful stepping on your close relative in Hawaii. To be honest, I think I was the only one salivating to see a whole bunch of your cousins at the CA Science Academy. Sorry for making you squirm after squirting lemon juice on you...You are so sweet. <3

 Hello Tua Tua clams, You are delicious raw.

After those silly fishermen got rid of your predators, the Sea Otters, from SoCal, your population exploded and nearly collapsed the Kelp forests! Yummy for me, but so sad for the entire ecosystem...oh and those silly fishermen who eventually lost their catch...

 Time for the authentic Hue Banh Beo. I've never had it served this way. The rice pads were like suction cups on the dish! So coooool...

 More lemon, shrimp paste, and chili please.

And this is the reason why I am still up at 5 AM writing this entry. Ended the night with the Crimson Peach iced tea at Tebo Tebo Tea Lounge...The pearls are cooked to perfection!
