Colette - an American brunch eatery that is now a Chinese restaurant powerhouse

got @Clayfu’enced so gathered a crew, preordered some dishes and headed north of the 210.

will need to come back for the curry crab which they couldn’t get for our dinner.

@Bagel @noddles review forthcoming?

crispy stuffed chicken - deboned air-dried chicken, shrimp paste

skin was nice and crispy and coated with some panko? underneath. a bit light on the shrimp flavor.

curry beef brisket - beef brisket with house curry soup

good curry, tender brisket.

crispy honey shrimp - honey glazed crispy whole shrimp

sweet, shells not as thin and crispy as lotus of siam.

colette kung pao chicken - spicy diced chicken with peanut, chili pepper, stir-fried

recommended by the gm, nicely executed.

seafood pouch in pumpkin soup - pumpkin soup with seafood pouch stuffed with scallop, shrimp

a table favorite. pouch was made of egg whites, a play on egg drop soup?

golden yolk luffa - angled luffa stir fried with salted egg yolk

nice and crispy

stuffed chicken wings - braised chicken wings stuffed with sticky fried rice

this was when fifty shades of hei @chrishei called in a caviar airdrop. a few minutes later @Clayfu very generously drops off two tins of astrea. thank you for for your support.

@hppzz’s quenelles need some work.

bite of the night

lobster with sticky fried rice

this was great, the delicious sticky rice was the “sauce.”

well-done beef vermicelli - crispy stir-fried vermicelli with beef

another highlight

steamed red grouper

wagyu truffle fried rice - fried rice with diced miyazaki wagyu and black truffles

for all the @moonboy403’s who need their wagyu and truffles with every meal.
