andrew kau fu
Tonight, we had dinner with my parents (Jerry, Kelvin & me). We were eating Shanghainese food and Jerry was eating his favorite "woh teep" (fried dumplings). He ate large chunks at a time and had difficulty chewing. Mom then tried to get him to stop by telling him an anecdote of a time when Andrew was at a friend's birthday party and he nearly choked to death on a hot dog sausage before pulling the whole thing out of his throat. Back then (perhaps not anymore) Andrew hardly chewed his food; he would scoff it all up. We laughed hard, not b/c he nearly died, but because the way mom told it, it sounded like Andrew pulled up his intestines instead of a hotdog sausage (as the word for sausage and intestines are the same in Canto). Hopefully, Jerry learned something today.

Haha, that's funny. Andrew Kau Fu chewed food like it was a chore back in high school and just now he's learned to chew normally. :)
Anyways, tell Jerry to share his wo teeps with me! I'm salivating and will probably scoff it down too. I miss HK foods.
that's one of my most favorite foods! yum. wo teep
well this andrew kau fu is still alive.
the story goes... i was in first or second grade...i went to a friend's bday party. mm hotdogs. i began eating it. fast of course. and started choking. none of the adults noticed me. so i went inside the house all panicked... then stuck my finger down my throat and literally semi-puked that sucker out. lol... scared. but when i began breathing normally ...that was relieving.
who says i chew normally now.
kikikiki, what a scary & funny story, didn't know Andrew & Jerry shared the same eating habits~ We always have to remind Jerry that there's plenty of food left, no need to stuff it all down his throat even when he's already full~
