The other day was my retirement party. We went to a local Chinese place, and while all the others were getting the touristy stuff, sweet sour and mu shu, I said "smoked bean pork." The waiter looked at me like I was from Alpha Centauri, like "what's an old white guy doing ordering the good stuff?"

Mexicans are usually surprised that I order the lengua tacos. I have to assure them that I know that means beef tongue.
