[泰國] 魚不能翻身

[ttak (無可救藥的浪漫主義)]

Hey I want to share this story in English.
Hope you never mind my English is not so well. :)


Once several friends and I went to a chinese restaurant for a dinner together.

We had "合菜". ("fusion" in English? I am not sure ~)

One of our dishes is a fish.

We ate, and when the upper side of the fish is almost gone,
what we were going to do next, surly, is to turn the fish upside-down.

At that moment, one of my friends, who is a Thailand people,
seemed to be schokced and said:
"Oh, no, don't turn the fish upside-down."

"Why?"  We wondered.

"Well...in Thailand, we don't turn the fish.
 Because legend has it if we turn the fish,
 the fisherman who caught this fish will turn over from his boat. (翻船) "


Really interesting, sounds like a curse?
We didn't know if that custom still prevailing in Thailand,
but that night,
everybody obeyed the rule and picked the fishbone out patiently.

:D
