All Seafood Tastes Good, No Matter How Creepy It Looks

Case in point.  The Geoduck clam


Never mind that it resembles a foot long penis, a resemblance which is enhanced by the water streaming out of a hole at the end when it is removed from the tank I might add.  Our restaurant in Hong Kong last week served ours sashimi style; raw, sliced into bite-sized pieces and dipped in soy sauce with wasabi.  It tasted like a clam although the texture was a bit odd.  It somehow managed to be rubbery and crunchy at the same time.  It was good nonetheless.

We had dinner at a restaurant attached to the Lei Yue Mun fish market where you buy your food, and then bring it to the restaurant where it is prepared.  Some pretty interesting creatures in these tanks...
