Weekly Cantonese: ngaan5 fut3 tou5 zaak3每週廣東話: 眼闊肚窄

眼 eyes ngaan5
闊 wide fut3
肚 stomach tou5
窄 narrow zaak3

Meaning: (one's) eyes are bigger than (one's) stomach

意思:見了想吃,卻因肚子已滿而無福消受

Example: Lettuce, Pak Choy, and Mustard Greens are a very healthy combination of vegetables, but I guess your eyes are bigger than your stomach, you may not be able to finish eating them all!

例句:生菜、白菜、芥菜,呢個蔬菜組合係好健康,但咪眼闊肚窄啦,食唔曬㗎!
