For Hanukkah you’re supposed to eat something fried. My Bay Cities Chicken Parm. Problem solved.

Center cut of a big ass chunk of prime brisket, 14 hours in the smoker by @mhlee.
It was significantly better than anything from pok pok on Saturday.

Yep. After 35 years (same owners, same cooks the entire time) they’re calling it quits December 31. They’re getting tired and Cambodia Town isn’t what it used to be.
Sad to see them go, as they’re a huge staple in the local community.
How do I get a cut???

35 years with the same owners/cooks is a really impressive run

So sad. I guess their kids don’t want it either. They are such nice folks, I wish them well in retirement.

Offer bourbon and ask @mhlee nicely. At least that’s how I do it. Beats gambling with Horse Thief/Fred’s.
Ha. I give you brisket because you’re appreciative of it, have perspective, are open to other styles of barbecue, and to show you how different brands and grades of meat, rubs, woods, cooking technique and equipment affect the final product since you’re open to learning about this stuff. Plus, you don’t think I’m that crazy about this stuff.
The bourbon is greatly appreciated.
Shredded lettuce… why? WHY!!!

Boring here in OC, but started with a few bottles of Schramsberg, and then headed to Gulliver’s Irvine for prime rib.

are they only giving you one bone with the gnocchetti now?
You can get one or two bones. Definitely should have gotten it with two bones but you live and you learn.
Spring Bamboo for lunch (see report).
Went to a friend’s home for a huge Hanukah dinner (brisket, chicken, latkes, and the most delicious matzoh ball soup, all prepped by the hosts at home). And I brought a tiramisu that I made. All so yummy!
