..."is putting parsley trees in Wasabi Dragons an ART FORM?"...

When you live in the middle of nowhere and you are surrounded by people who know nothing, this is what you get.

Several years ago after an interview with a chef from China that did not speak English, I asked to see his credentials from the Cooking Institute where he said he had graduated. They gave me a photo copy of a document in Chinese characters that I could not read.

WHEN I HAD IT TRANSLATED IT WAS HIS PUBLIC LIBRARY CERTIFICATE

That terrible Sushi with the Hong Kong "SPIN" and Dragon Wasabi has about as much to do with the quality of a 3 star Michelin Restaurant like American famed Chef Thomas Keller's French Laundry in Yountsville, serving "PAVE" OF JAPANESE MEDAI "AMANDINE" with Melted Fennel Bulb, Black Winter Truffles "Pignons de Pins" & Grains of Paradise as compared to the RT. 66 Holiday Inn in Barstow at the Chinese Laundry ... "asking you, light or heavy starch!!"

SHAPE UP FOLKS... please
