Woman on Top Page #3
- Are you prepared for that? | - Are you prepared for that?
Yes.
OK. This is what you must do.
Find four fat Mephistophelean crabs,
the heart of an artichoke,
The feather of a black rooster.
The eyes of two boiled catfish.
And finally, sprinkle the ashes | of his burnt photograph.
Allow me.
How about this? "What's My Orientation?" | Every day we bring out guests,
and a panel has to guess | if they're gay or straight.
- I wouldn't watch that. | - Me neither.
that won't get clobbered by "Xena."
- Yeah, well, you better!
Thank y...
God, I hate my life.
- Thank you. | - Sure.
Good morning.
Thank you.
Good morning. I am Isabella Oliveira. | Welcome to my class.
I see a lot of new faces here today.
Oh Lord! Are you nuts? You're crazy!
My friend, can you take me here?
Oh Christ.
- There's no address, mon. | - I know. Will that be a problem?
Now crush the garlic in the mortar with | a pinch of salt. Measure with your senses.
In time your fingers can develop | a tactile memory forjust the right amount.
You've got to ring more doorbells than the | Avon lady to find something by this method.
Saut the bell peppers, onions, | tomatoes and chilies in "dend" oil.
Then we add the stock.
And when it comes to a boil, add the shrimp.
You will see that they are ready | when they turn pink and begin to curl.
Isn't that beautiful?
To finish, pour into a nice serving dish
and sprinkle a little more cilantro.
- Thank you. | - Sure.
Voil! Muqueca de camaro.
And remember:
The last | and most important ingredientis to share it with someone you love.
I think it always improves | the flavor of the dish.
Well, that's all. Thank you.
- Too hot for you? | - No.
No...
It's just... new.
Can I talk to you for a sec?
you must have unlisted number.
But she's quite unique. | 5'10", braids, great legs and she's a man.
In San Francisco, that is not unique.
Until two hours ago my entire definition | of cooking was "Remove tinfoil and nuke."
I have never seen anything like it! | The whole room was bedazzled by you.
- Where did you learn that? | - I was a chef in my husband's restaurant.
- Is that too heavy? | - No, it's fine. It's fine.
But, anyway, I left him.
Your husband?
That's great! I mean, why?
Let's say he was stifling me.
How could he? How could anyone stifle you?
You are so... like the air, | like the wind, like a fish.
No... Not like a fi...
- Come here. I wanna tell you my idea. | - I can't.
- It's OK. | - I can't, really.
Come on, it's OK. You'll be fine.
Are you all right?
- I get motion sickness. | - That's nothing. When I get anxious, I hiccup.
