Crunchy!

After watching Gigi numerous times as a child, I finally had a chance to eat quail, bones and all. We went to this Hawaiin-Asian fusion restaurant where the sushi appetizers were delicious. Encouraged, I ventured on to the roasted stuffed quail, delightfully remembering Leslie Caron's tutorage in Paris in this gastronomical art. Chewing the bones was...an experience. But not an experience I would ever want to repeat. Perhaps it is the proper way to eat quail, but never again for this girl. The lesson I should have learned as a child watching Gigi? Bones are not for chewing (oh, and high class hookers are classy.)
