The whole notion of labeling a store "ethnic" suggests only that it's not MY demographic, and I freely acknowledge that Tom Thumb or Albertson's are just as ethnic to others outside my group. That said, the following incident reminds me that it's important to ask questions and watch your tongue when you're out of your ethnic element. I was picking up some items for a quick dinner at Asia World Market in Plano, which I love, and here were two trays of perfectly sliced, stir-fry ready meat in the butcher's case. Signage identified one as pork. No label was over the other. When I asked the butcher what the difference was between them, he said, "Lengua," as in one tray was pork and the other was lengua. Although he started to take the lengua out for me, I made sure that the pound I got was indeed pork for my stir-fry. CommentsE-mail entry: |

Stir-fried tongue...well, I'm sure it works for some folks. But I'd take the pork, too, KP.
