Want to know how that live fish dish I posted earlier might have been cooked? Look no further than this Chinese cooking competition that puts chefs up against each other to see who can cook and serve a live snake and fish the fastest.
Thanks Tien!
Fish still moving after being cooked
November 19, 2009 @ 8:27 pm
Did you know that a fish’s scales can resist heat up to about 700 degrees Fahrenheit? Yeah, it’s a pretty remarkable little known fact that allowed this fish above to remain alive even after it’s been cooked.
If you believed that first sentence, you fail. I was just kidding. But the above video IS of a fish that is still moving after being cooked. Cantonese people in the background of course.
Thanks LingLong!

Fishy Island by Erik Johansson
Take a look at the extensive photo manipulation portfolio of Erik Johansson. It’s some of the most visually jarring and peculiar imagery I’ve ever come across. It’s all fake, but it’s done so well that it’s almost believable.
1984 Fish Bowl
August 27, 2009 @ 1:18 am
Fish bowls are usually very public spectacles. They sit out in the open and allow anybody passing by to view the fish and its contents at any time they please. But with the 1984 Fish Bowl from Workshopped, there can now be some privacy for that pet fish you own because this fish bowl features solid white walls and 3 domed windows for you to peer into or for the fish to look out from. A nice twist on the traditional all-glass fish tanks that I’m used to seeing.
Unfortunately, this fish bowl is $430. Yikes.

Amedee Coral Reef New Caledonia in New Caledonia
Richard Chesher’s underwater reef panorama makes me long for another deep-sea dive. It’s been over a year since my last one and I’m itching to strap another oxygen tank to my back and jump into the sea. [via]
