“The dish is...a fearsomely good combination of flavors and textures, the tapioca and the caviar playing tag with each other in the mouth.”
“Caviar is strange and disgusting. That popping texture, its like Space Dust for gourmets.”
“The world's worst flavor combination was mango and menthol.”
“prepackaged slices or the Supermarket swiss (which has the texture but no where near the flavor, of rubber gloves)”
“For Celia, her whole surround was animate, and each tapioca lump had a dense, nauseating little soul.”
“Dwelling on pain, spending too much time immersed in it, tasting its flavors, fingering its textures--this makes it only more potent.”
