HASMA












This amazing dish was served to us in a very fancy restaurant. Together with friends from Israel, we headed for dinner at a beautiful restaurant around the west gate of Workers’ stadium. The food was great.

We decided to check out the desert menu – excellent deserts are really hard to find but we thought, that a ~60RMB deserts (expensive) is worth trying.

We waited ~20 minutes before it was served: white/creamy/semi transparent kind of gel, was served in a bowl along with two sweet pastes in separate bowls. The smell was not great. But we tried anyways. It was kind of ‘fishi’…

The waiter could not tell us what the dish is made of. It took us some more bytes and a phone call to a colleague of mine, to understand what it is that we are eating…
