...everywhere. In the General Gao's chicken at Chef Chow's and won ton soup at the Yenching restaurant. In the tuna fish, nacho cheese and any number of other products (it's frequently disguised as "flavoring") on the shelves at Christie's. It even shows up as an active ingredient in the Campbell's chicken noodle soup one buys only for sick roommates...
...like all its predecessors, The Wine-Dark Sea sometimes tacks into some pretty choppy stretches of technicalities: "upper-tree, side-trees, heel-pieces, side-fishes, cheeks, front-fish and cant-pieces, all scarfed, coaked, bolted, hooped and woolded together." But such passages are there for atmospherics rather than information, and they sometimes seem to be delivered with an authorial wink. In one of the running jokes in the series, Maturin, far more comfortable on land than on sea, frequently doesn't understand what his shipmates are saying. Occasionally he feigns ignorance. When Aubrey uses the term "shaped the mast," Maturin...
Like a revenger's tragedy, the violence in Northern Ireland never goes unanswered. On a Saturday afternoon two weeks ago, Thomas Begley, a 23-year- old I.R.A. member, walked into Frizzell's fish shop on the Shankill Road in Belfast carrying a Semtex bomb that exploded, probably prematurely.

The reply came three days later at 7:30 a.m. Two Protestant gunman fired long bursts from automatic weapons into a group of city sanitation workers in largely Roman Catholic West Belfast. Two Catholic men were...
...extra flavor, but stick with the chicken (always white meat) if you're one of those sandal-wearing, granola-munching health freaks. The Thai Sticks are a bountiful but bland batch of veggies fried in batter, not worth it unless you're starving. The Tod Mun shrimp and fish cake is kind of chewy and fishy. Try it with the peanut sauce from the satay (and you will get the satay). The soups are watered down--don't bother...
...yourself dishes sucked. Besides the Chicken Tropical, there was this one dish, (just can't remember the name..."Trio" something) with a terrific plum sauce on top of pork, chicken, beef, snowpeas, babycorn, and, of course, pineapple. Another dish with a mysterious name is a big fish in a spicy sauce. This description could fit any number of dishes on the menu, but it really was good. Truthfully, you're probably better off choosing from the mix-your-own-entree section...
