Beijing market: grilled starfish, goat lungs and red peppers, dog brain soup and more!

All eyes are on Beijing right now, for obvious reasons, and today I stumbled upon a blog post which caught my eye.   The Chinese are renowned for eating pretty much anything, and so it was interesting to be able to see pictures of a market offering everything from starfish grilled in shark oil to scorpion brochettes.   I’m fascinated with tasting different things – particularly items I’ve never previously tried – but I think with one or two of these I might have to politely decline.   For the full ensemble, with pictures, see Brain Goodbye.
