Well Sarah and Denise have continued to show me the world thru food! This week we went to China Magic. A little hole in the wall Chinese restaurant that is famous for their home made noodles. This man was behind a glass making the noodles, hand pulling them etc. He slammed them down on the table and pulled and kept repeating this until they were very thin, then into the pot of boiling water ready to go out to the tables fresh. And of course there was a tip jar in front of the window and then he holds his hands together and bows when you put a dollar in!
The food was all very interesting, even a soup with noodles and lamb. They even had boiled peanuts on the table for you to add to your dish along with the shredded carrots and pickled radish. Then of course they wanted me to walk thru Lee Lee's market which was around the corner, a market with all kinds of Asian food plus aisles featuring things from all over the world. It was very interesting thru the vegetables, some I've never even heard of, but then we got to the meat, the pig ears,fish,chicken feet, squid made me want to go walk thru the different canned things.......safer. So whew I made it again thru that one, I'm hearing since it's getting chilly out that next we will head south and do Caribbean!
