Yesterday, we met up at Lam's Garden and he brought his cute grand-daughter along too.
We again ordered the minute chicken with cake noodle...so good. Cake noodle is something I don't see often in Japan, so good!
The squid was chewy and the sin choi had a sweet sour flavor, really tasty.
It was nice to catch-up with Nate and to meet his grand-daughter.
Thanks for lunch Nate!

Stuffed bitter melons...Sounds good to me (something like stuffed peppers which I prepare). I have never eaten bitter melons. :(
Sandy
lot of people I know don't like bittermelon because of the bitterness, Sandy, I hope you get to try some soon!
Take care.

Was good seeing you again, really would like to have Satoshi there too to eat!
By the way we call the sin choi dish - Sin Choi Chow Yau Nyee. That's sin choi sit-fried with squid.
Mmm I love cake noodles!! They always seem to taste better in Hawai'i than anywhere else ^_^
The food looks so good in Hawaii and makes me want to visit :)
Japan Australia
One of these days I am going to have to eat there. ;-)
next time with Satoshi Nate!
I'm jealous you can get cake noodle in NYC Kathy!
You should come J-A!
I hope you do Deb in Hawaii!
Take care everyone!

I tried to take a closer look at the cake noodle dish...so cake noodle is like korean rice cakes? Tubular in shape, about 1.5 to 2 inches long? I've seen those, plus the dried oval-shaped ones (like a sort of rice pasta but thicker), and then I remember seeing a real cake/slab-type of rice where I guess you would slice pieces off for flat, short noodles. This is interesting.
If I'm not mistaken Rowena, cake noodle are noodles that are deep fried then cut into squares...like frying an s&s saimin then cutting it into squares. They aren't like mochi (rice cake).
Take care.

p.s. Rowena, here is a recipe if you'd like to make your own cake noodles.
