He must have given her the shiniest pebble on the planet because that looks fucking delicious ngl

And as a fellow seafood lover, I want some of what you're smoking.

I mean what the hell is going on in the top and bottom right quadrants? What's with that bright orange noodle slop? And I can't even begin to describe what the other thing is supposed to be. Also, no cocktail sauce? No butter?

Bottom right Mushroom wild rice, top right is wasbi mayo. I think the fish are smelts. The imitation crab and shrimp im not sure about.But the rest of the plate I can say is indigenous cuisine and native to my area. Very delicious for the most part epsiecally the wild rice.

Wut? That's shellfish in the bottom right

Doesn’t mushroom wild rice have rice in it? Zoom in on that image.

It often does because even commercial wild rice is expensive and cutting it with regular white rice makes for a much cheaper dish. And the bland white rice offers no extra flavor to the dish.

But there are those of us who have access to real wild rice that has been hand harvested and hand parched over an open wood fire. That's God tier wild rice. And I would never disrespect that wild rice in such a fashion.

That sounds delicious. But I don’t see any rice in the the picture above, wild or otherwise.

You're taking the piss? That looks like a dog's breakfast. Like bile at the back of the throat.

You get that different cultures have different cuisine preferences, right? That honestly looks pretty good to me accompanied with a plate of rice.
