Popped over last week for the finale of a few favorites!
We were tempted to load up on more items (here’s looking at you spareribs) but decided to be kinda conservative.
No “Top Reheat” plating photos. After driving the 6+ miles home it was quickly shoot it, quickly plate it, enjoy eating it! Pro tip: preheated the plates in the toaster oven.
Char Siu - Pork Belly, Honey Glaze, Hot Mustard
This time they offered regular, fatty & extra fatty. Not remembering what we ordered previously we went with fatty. I’d maybe go for regular next time but it was still perfection. Perfectly cooked belly, caramelized honey glaze and the hot mustard as the perfect foil! Yes I used the word perfect 3 times!
Scrambled Eggs & Shrimp
If we lived in the ‘hood this would become a regular habit. Savory seasoning, buttery, soft, creamy curds & perfectly cooked, snappy shrimp.
Jasmine Rice
Love this fragrant, delicately flavored rice with the scrambled eggs & shrimp.
Eggplant, Bamboo, Wood Ear Shrooms, Red (Bell?) Peppers, Cilantro, Spicy Garlic Sauce
The beauty of this dish is the crispy outside, creamy inside. It doesn’t translate quite as well togo without a zap in the toaster oven. But the upside is we got more tasty, spicy garlic sauce then the dine-in version.
Shrimp Chips
I may have eaten half before photographing. Please never take these off the menu! I haven’t had a lot but these are the most shrimpy I’ve had. Love!
Almond Jello… but of course.
Yau Tiu (donuts), 8 Spice, Sugar, Condensed Milk
We’ll just call these the diet destroyer. Sooo good! They travel well too - warm & crispy.
We probably won’t do Siu Yeh because it’s for two and I struggle finishing big meals in one sitting. But! I’m anxious to read others’ reports, especially the infamous Pork Shoulder Char Siu.
I saved this prior menu for posterity.
Happy Needle Eating!
