It's hard to find good snake soup in vancouver.

Any suggestion?

作者: KittyLeung74 時間: 2010-1-11 10:41

The one in the Food Court of Empire Centre 4600 No.3 Rd, Richmond, BC

Is it still called "Leung Kee"?

作者: Ultraman 時間: 2010-1-11 11:41

Not to offend anyone, but there are lots of foods to eat, why eat snakes??

作者: Prelude 時間: 2010-1-11 14:32

It's in the culture and they taste good.
It's like, there are lots of food to eat, why eat rice?

作者: somewhereintime 時間: 2010-1-11 14:34

Why would I want to eat snake soup here in Vancouver?
It is almost impossible to find any snake soup worth to eat here, the
proper snake soup should consist following components:
1. 5 varieties of snake meat
2. The snake bones for broth
3. the condiments: Aromatic Chrysanthemum, lemon leaves and savory crisps
The snakes available here are frozen stale meat, there is no snake bone for broth,
and for the condiments, the Chrysanthemum is not meant for eating, the savory
crisps are just wonton skins.
I tried Shiang Garden, Jade, Floata, Sea Harbour and some other high end Chinese
restaurants and yet to find any worth to eat, why bother

Some China people eat cats and dogs and lions and tigers, doesn't mean because it is the culture and you have to eat them. Cannibals eat human, and so you have to eat human too?

And I personally don't think snake is "tasty", they are rather "tasteless" and "not special" to me. You think snake tastes good all because of the side ingredients but not itself. Any beef, pork, or chicken tastes much better.

作者: somewhereintime 時間: 2010-1-11 14:58

Only the snake meat sold here taste like cardboard,
I ate many good snake dishes  in Hong Kong, Taiwan,
Singapore and Australia.
I once worked with a chef who is the son of Grand Master Wu,
who benchmarked  the famous 太史五蛇羹.
I can cook a 12 courses snake feast,  only if I can get my hands
on those snakes

作者: Ultraman 時間: 2010-1-11 15:12

You never give up any chance to brag about yourself.

作者: somewhereintime 時間: 2010-1-11 15:17

It is not like I want to solicit any biz here.
I have not been working in Chinese restaurant for 35 years,
and I'm not related to any Chinese restaurant selling snake dishes.
But I do like eating snakes, and snake bladder in rice wine.

作者: Ultraman 時間: 2010-1-11 15:23

Oh I felt into your trap again! The more I talk, I more you brag!

See what you would say next?!

How do you practice your Chinese cooking skills if you have not worked in a Chinese restaurant here? Cooking at home?

作者: somewhereintime 時間: 2010-1-11 15:48

Well, I lost grip on my Chinese Culinary flairs , by 60%, but still capable
to do consultation and training works for restaurants so I work in Chinese kitchens
as well, just not as a full time line cook.

If you do consultation with Chinese restaurants, please tell us which Chinese restaurants are good?

It is only fair to comment from consumer's perspective,
since I know so many people in restaurant business.

作者: Prelude 時間: 2010-1-12 02:43

tiff: No shxt, of course I know HK has good snake soup. That's not the question. We are in Vancouver right now.

Ultra: Some people hate beef , some people hate pork, does that mean you don't eat them? Some people think chicken breast is the best meat, so you only eat chicken breast?
I like snake soup because it tastes good to me and I enjoyed it very much since I tried it when I was a kid in HK.

I see. Official comments are mandatory, while casual comments are not reliable at all.

作者: somewhereintime 時間: 2010-1-12 21:25

Official comments are backed by research and stat,
casual comment is based on gut feeling, just like saying " It is going to
raining today" without checking weather forecasting.
Why keep picking on me? You make lots of comment on topics you

By your theory or standard, I guess we can't discuss wonton in Vancouver because HK has better ones.
We can't discuss fried noodles in Vancouver as well, we can't discuss 7-11, we can't discuss cellphone, etc...

We can barely discuss anything now suddenly. In fact, we can only discuss Vancouver's best, right?

You are very funny. Did I forbid you to eat snake soup? I just wonder why people eat it cuz as I said I PERSONALLY think it's tasteless. Surely you have your own taste and please feel free to think it tastes good, which I can do nothing about it. But as your theory, please don't force me (or other people) to agree it tastes good or force people to eat it!

Some one has been stalking me for 45 years!
I have been working independently for the past 25 years
(I do contract assignments),
Even for large organizations , government agencies I would
only report to 1 supervisor. I deal with public so lots of people
know me. Now I work on HACCP education assignment with Harper College in
Chicago , I'll need a travelling agent quick.

Everybody already knew.

Back in 1975,  7 days SE Asia tour was only HK$800, and I used to make $5,0000 monthly salary,
I paid for travelling  friends too.
This thread is to discuss where to eat snake, why bother just come here and do personal bashing,
and spam  another  topic, like you have done 8 times already

作者: Prelude 時間: 2010-1-14 11:06

So, where is the best place to eat snake in Vancouver again?
Lost track after few pages of useless bull****s.

If you are not so picky as I do, the one at Empire Foodcourt is inexpensive and acceptable,
without all the condiments and lack of intensive  snake bone flavour.
I know some Chinese restaurant owners do smuggle in illegal snakes and serve to  private parties,
which I attended many times, that is another  stories.

作者: Prelude 時間: 2010-1-14 14:23

The food court one wasn't good to begin with. Now, it's even worse than before.
So, are we out of luck?

For the public, unfortunately.
The problem is they cannot charge too much for Food Court client base,
maybe ask them if they would do some proper one if you order ahead of time.
I know some foodcourt owner would prepare abalone, sharks fin etc for rich customers
in their Fast Food kitchen.
Or, if you organize a group, I may be able to get some chef to prepare the snake soup;
not myself, so there is no conflict of interest.
