Hong Kong Restaurant and
Sushi Cuisine
So, honestly, one of the greatest things you can get at HKR is their Won Ton soup! The lady that works there knows my order by heart once I say 'Won Ton Soup with extra-.' She'll automatically giggle and continue to say 'Bok Choy and chicken. See you in 10!'
Several weeks ago I went with my boyfriend to this amazing find of a restaurant, and we ordered some Mu Shu Chicken, the Won Ton soup, annnndddd CRAB RANGOON!These little buggers are 6 for... something under 3 dollars. I'm not sure anymore. But they are DELICIOUS!
Hot and crisp on the outside, with a slightly chewy texture, and then this flavorful cream cheese and crab mixture on the inside that is ABSOLUTELY to die for.
Okay, so now that I'm over the crab rangoon, let's continue on to a more recent dining event. At Sushi Cuisine you can find cheap, huge chunks of Salmon and Tuna that are good quality (but I've got high standards, coming from L.A. and having been to Japan). Their nigiri is priced lower than most sushi places in the area, and their lunch specials are just unbeatable!
For $6.50 my boyfriend got a bowl of Oyaku-don! What is Oyaku-don? It's like a chicken omelette with seaweed atop rice. If you know my boyfriend, you know that he'd be in heaven eating something of that sort. :]
Me, having been a little more adventurous than my usual Sake Nigiri, Cherry Blossom Roll, or Beef Teriyaki, I got the Beef Sukiyaki.
Let me just say that this is not on the lunch menu, and is not necessarily cheap, but for about $12 you get enough food to fill you, and then enough to fill you for dinner, and then enough to fill you for breakfast. There is a TON of food. I regret not sharing with my boyfriend, he seemed to love the tender tofu, glass noodles, and the extremely savory/sweet sauce that just tasted so satisfying. All in all, a wonderful meal!
Okay so today is my birthday!
Woo!
And you know what my boyfriend got me?
You guessed it!
Incentive to COOK MORE, and POST MORE on this website!
So my boyfriend put two and two together: I love reading, and I love cooking.
And he got me something amazing that I could use to entertain, and to enjoy myself with! This book has so many recipes that I just adore, and everything can be changed up to accommodate the carnivore in me and my friends!
So here's a thank you to my baby boo! <3
