Hot Chili Oil & Hot Chinese Mustard

These are two of the first food pictures I took, December 9, 2010. The pattern of the sauces and the distinct lines between them just struck me as so beautiful. The surface tension between them stays intact. The mustard looks almost like a crescent moon, and the whole thing looks a bit like the yin & yang symbol, which is fitting for a Chinese restaurant. I also love that there's no sense of scale. This could be a full size soup plate, or a little condiment plate. You don't know!
