Snake King - Se Wong Sun ( NH )



Something caught my attention from the corner of my eye.

And right smack in the middle of Toy Street too ! Try and beat that.

I backtracked. Almost fainted when I saw this poster. Scream ! Cobraaaaa.... ????

Inched a little closer and took many many steps back when I noticed some preserved , coiled up specimens in large jars on shelves located near the entrance.





This where our snakes and river terrapins end up ? In a cooking pot here ? On this street ?

Hissed it's last hiss on Wanchai - the snake's eulogy.

The locals consume this during the winter to keep warm. You can order it ala thick soup or even as a fried rice.

Imagine. Cobra fried rice. I swear I will die if it ever passes my lips. Allow me to freeze to death on my own .




Scariest sight ever. Tweenager and snake.
