Sadly , Jun and Hsiang both ate the splash tike , and subsequently go bad from liver unsuccessful person at a hospital on Tuesday night . Fortunately , the repast had not been offer to the public : the cup of tea was cooked for personal consumption .

The chef had plain picked the mushroom himself , mistaking them for comestible chaff mushrooms . A big move , because they are among the most poisonous — and by some accounts , the single deadliest — in the public . [ The Guardian ; epitome : polandeze ]
