November 2023 Rundown

I was a fan. My second time there, and a little sweeter this time. Skin crispy and the meat was tender and juicy. We didn’t get a rice but I was thirsty for some.

Called them just now. The roast goose is a special order that needs to be done 2 days ahead and it’s $168.

Damn I love me some goose

@JLee do you happen to know the differences in geese used in hk compared to here? I feel like you mentioned it awhile ago.

Oh, I thought he had talked about a diff in chickens? But I have a bad memory for such things.

The ones used in Hong Kong are mostly from China (to each shop’s specification in terms of age). The good shops get them delivered “fresh” after they get processed in the mainland. As far as I know, the only goose available here are frozen.

Damn frozen is already a huge negative :frowning:

Usually a different breed.

Chinese geese are usually knob geese that have the knob on their heads.

Canadian geese is different.

Fresh goose is available here, barely, by special order from hipster butchers at certain times of year.

I had 61 pieces at Sushi Damu at Tustin. 1 Beginning Tuna Belly Hand Roll and 60 Nigiris.

The damage is $58.

My brother really likes that place.

We used to take one of the chowpups there after a soccer match or OC tournament play. That ravenous appetite went through the food like a Taz the Tasmanian devil.

How much could he eat?

I gained 5.9 pounds after 61 pieces of sushi, 16 ounces of hot tea, and a full glass of water.

It was a full house. Surprisingly in the middle of the week at lunch.

lol idgaf about the cost performance of an AYCE place, but woof the unagi looks like it was pulled straight out of a <$5 can. the ikura doesn’t look too bad

We were there until he was full and ready for a nap in the car?

I think we kept on ordering for him for rounds well after we stopped for ourselves. I think we made it only 2 rounds…that bottomless pit just kept eating.

once again, better start looking into chelation therapy
