Was that Chicken?
I stopped at Albert on my way home from work (there's one below ground at the metro station I go to when leaving work) to get some food for dinner. I decided I would buy some chicken, a couple varieties of mushrooms and some white wine. Because I can understand at most one or two words on a label I tend to just find the right section and figure out the rest visually. Well, I know where the poultry section is and saw a bunch of packages of what appeared to be bone-in thighs so I thought that would be perfect for braising in white wine with mushrooms. When I got home and started cooking I took the chicken out and noticed that the pieces were in fact each a small bird with very little besides skin and bones - there was no meat to speak of. We had to improvise dinner a bit and I'm still left wondering what that was I bought.
