On Sunday we went to Jia Jönsson's 40th birthday party at Pinde Bar, in the (since last year) newly deconstructed/reconstructed Kuanzhai Xiangzi in Chengdu. Pinde Bar specializes in western food and a wide selection of imported and domestic beers. The food was just fine, but our eyes quickly latched onto the buffet sign for pào jiāo niú wā 泡椒牛蛙: pickled bullfrog. This particular dish is for bullfrog in a kind of Sichuan chili-pepper pickle sauce. I seem to remember that I prefer my bullfrog in a French cream sauce but last time I ate bullfrog was in 1969 so I'm not too clear about it.
