Oh My Fish!
Corbett | March 12, 2011 5:17 PM
Following up on the Oh My God! coffee shop which we loved so much in Yangzhou, I recently discovered Oh My Fish!
I've never had the pleasure of shouting out "Oh My Fish!" in English before, but I have heard it uttered a few times. Once was when my Taiwanese friend Andy came home to discover his beloved salt water fish were all floating at the top of his new tank. Another time my wife was cooking something and went to answer the phone, and I heard a shriek and a shout colored with a few strong adjectives, as she burnt the mackerel beyond recognition. "Holy mackerel!" would have been the perfect line, but we were too busy dealing with the smoke to be that clever.
If you are squinting and wondering where the Oh My Fish! is, it's here...
This was in Shenzhen, and unfortunately I didn't have time to eat there. Next time.

3q2u is an acronym which if said in Chinese and Japanese sounds like "Thank you to you!" Dumb but easy to remember. More >>
