If Kumquat, Drongo, Barbet and Francolin are human names in China, you can eat me with chopsticks. Kumquats are miniature oranges; for the rest, consult a good bird book. And I suspect a muntjac is a small deer!

Actually, pass me the Wok!According to the Oxford English Dictionary, Kumquat is the Cantonese dialectal form of the Chinese name "Kin Kü" meaning "gold orange" :)))

Not a wok - a preserving jar! An old friend of mine used to make bootleg Cointreau (is that how you spell it?) by putting sugar into vodka and suspending a mesh bag of kumquats over the liquid - not touching. This drew the flavouring oils out of the fruit, and they dissolved the sugar! When it was clear, it was ready. I've never tried, but if you feel daring, have a go.

Sounds like the perfect choice to accompany Anneza Szechuan :)
