This is not funny. Cobra is actually a very nutritious and tasty meal and the chef did not deserve to die like that. I am hoping that this tragedy does not deter other chefs from preparing cobra dishes.

I'm kinda surprised that basic safety precautions weren't followed, such as having an antidote on hand and crushing the snake's head, instead of just chopping it off, and letting it flop around. That's what folks do with diamondbacks and copperheads stateside, and they're nowhere near as dangerous as any flavor of cobra, let alone the hyper-venomous spitting cobra.

Where would you get an cobra antidote? In China, such an antidote is liable to be spinach and message.
