Chicken head!

I was having dinner with my colleagues last week before we headed off to this exclusive club called MINT for a trade party hosted by MTV. We ate at this traditional HKie Chinese restaurant and ordered the usual vegetables, pork, crispy tofu skin with prawn and chicken. As there were only 4 of us, the order was for HALF a chicken. Having a chicken head served with your chicken is not uncommon - but seriously? HALF A CHICKEN HEAD?
The obviously very dead chicken.
I can't believe they cut the chicken head into half as well! I mean yes it's HALF a chicken but cutting the chicken head into half is just... well too literal ain't it. I'm sure some of us don't mind having our half of the chicken served without the head. Check out the 'brains', the 'eye' - basically the erm 'interesting' cross anatomy of the chicken head.
The pics aren't very clear (stupid Nokia 6280!) but that's pretty sick huh! The gals at the table made me turn the head back coz they can't bear to look at the 'inside' of the chicken head!
