[QUOTE=Vajramusti;1097662]-----------------------------------------------Ruins both the fry and the mayonnaise… no?[/QUOTE]That’s what I thought but it is surprisingly good. You couldn’t eat it every day though. Well, you probably could but I wouldn’t like to see your cholesterol levels!
Similarly gravy on chips/fries. You’d think ‘soggy’ chips/fries would be yuck, but again surprisingly good.
The Dutch put mayonnaise on their chips/fries/frites. I think the Belgians do too.
It’s pretty common to get a sachet of tartare sauce (basically, mayo) with fish and chips in Oz these days. You might be only supposed to put it on the fish, but IMO it goes great on the chips (OK,fries!) as well.
You can even get it with a fish burger from Maccas IIRC (would you like fries with that? Supersize me!)
I need to see if I can locate the video again but I seen the Fook used as a strike by a Wing Chun guy. I will look later and see if I find it again. I believe it was called something else but the idea is the same the hand is more or less held the same way. The strike was delivered under the chin after a Gum Sau I think.

Gravy on fries/chips uummm good. I had some of the best Poutine when I was in Quebec.

(I also got Rene Ritchie’s autograph on my Complete Wing book).
Chips with curry sauce are really good too. We get them from UK Fish and Chips shops.

I am not finding it I may have been mistaken however there is a strike used in this manner in several Chinese arts Tang Lang being one major one. I don’t see why it couldn’t be used as such in Wing Chun. In Siu Lim Tau you use a Double Gum Sau followed by Tarn Sau. I have used this Tarn Sau as a strike after I blocked a low blow say a front kick as I sidestepped the kick after using a Gum Sau. I brought my Tarn up to the Carotid Artery. With it’s quick whipping motion I think it would daze if not knock someone out. Of course I don’t stick to just Wing Chun techniques I have a library of martial arts books and like to throw in all sorts of stuff.
