@greattlemurs I'm from Hong Kong which is heavily influenced by Canton and it's food. You are supposed to eat the 'bowl' along with the contents. Its about the contrast of texture. clam meat (heavy flavour and soft texture), pine nut (medium flavour and medium texture) and lettuce leaf (light flavour crisp texture).
This kind of dish is very common here. Sometimes we use lightly baked buns instead of lettuce leaf. But there will be more veggies in the filling to give it a crunch.

@nitzwalsh86 I would totally steal that dessert recipe. It's delicious.

I agree. It looks absolutely delicious, but the only lettuce is the bowl (decoration) and a tiny amount of shredded lettuce he chucked on top that you can even really see.
The food looks so tasty though. :)

For me chen's got it!
not having tasted who knows, but really... i think they are thematically more interesting!
-
The challenger's lettuce bowls really should not count as clearing the theme ingredient, if the bowl is not to be eaten with the contents!

all that food looks yummy

Lettuce was a good choice of ingredient, if only because it meant a lettuce desert.
Clearly you've never watched baseball.

I don't think I've ever heard almost a full minute of nothing happening narrated so enthusiastically.
