Knock You Over with a Virtual Feather(pen)!
Small Kung Pao Chicken, egg roll and hularice from the China Chef...for the editors that is! Yes, on Friday the editors did some guerilla research and headed out to the C.C. on B. This, we'll have you know, was no easy feat -- there was tons of last second holiday shopping being done at the supermercado that Monz never told us about! We finally secure parking and head on-in. Two Chinese young men sitting at the far window counter look at us with bored disapproval, but the young lady working the main counter is quite friendly, handing us our order and popping in a free gift! We decide to eat some of our feat then and there. The Kung Pao was impressive -- crisp, bright veggies, sauce flavorful (if not as hot as we expect for this dish). The egg rolls were interesting, and we mean that in a not-bad way. They had a flaky texture and were relatively mild - not what we expected. The hularice was the greasy faux-Asian paella cum pineapple that we expected and received. The verdict (as if there was any doubt): Monz can pick 'em!
Reader Alert: Speaking of warm, tropical places in the U.S., Monz neglected to tell us that he and his will be in Florida this week - blogging may be light.
