Of Dining and Cats

Nan Yao Tou, our beloved dining place, is apparently a wee bit shifty. During a conversation with a co-worker recently it came up that delicious cat was available! We didn't eat the specific item cited but god knows what wonderful things we *did* eat!!

The significant MSN conversation follows:
