Especially as the pieces of pigeon came complete with heads that did not look very happy. I guess it would've ruined the wedding mood if it had been called unhappy pigeon.
EDIT:
Remembered something else. It's just past the Chinese mid-Autumn festival so my mother's bought a load of 'mooncakes'. Usually eaten during the festival, but they're cheaper just after it. They're made of lotus paste (usually with a duck egg yolk in there somewhere, the more yolks = the more expensive) with the outside made of pastry.
i agree, that menu looks awesome :lol: no disrespect intended, but why is it called \"happy pigeon\"? i'm sure the pigeon isn't happy, it's about to be eaten

To see a world in a Grain of Sand,
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.

How does lotus paste taste? I never had it and can't imagine it what so ever.

When I think about it, I recall hating mooncakes as a kid.
I hated a lot of food as a kid. :blink: Now, I eat quite a lot compared..
I tried a mooncake once - not one with an egg yolk in it. It was interesting, but not really my thing. Though I am glad that tried it, it sated my curiosity.
