Odd Cantonese idioms: Cooking
![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
It was a pleasant weekend of not doing much. Saturday, I had some time to browse my books for more odd Chinese idioms, but so far I haven't really found any to top these two colloquial Cantonese examples:
燉佢冬菇 (lit. "stew his mushrooms") "demote him"
炒佢魷魚 (lit. "stir-fry his squid") "fire him"
