How is that possible, making your ice-cream so tasteful that I eat the whole bucket in one go. This is definitely not good for anybody who would like to get back in shape and loose some unnecessary weight, (although it’s not much I would need to loose).
The food is fantastic. If we are going to a Dim Sum place, eat dumplings, Cantonese food or whatever. Food is a big thing for the Chinese and they usually order a great number of different dishes which are all shared around the table. The diner is a social event, where you can really talk with the people. How different than in the US, where sometimes you are in and out a restaurant in barely 25 minutes.
Dumplings. These were especially good in this restaurant. It won several awards, and I had never had such good Dim Sum.
Fish-head soup
Deep fried fish, tasty…
Cold chicken dish in red sauce. It looks hot and spicy, but was mild and very good.
Ultra hot dish. Shrimps with vegetables in red hot peppers. You are not supposed to eat the peppers, as you will be on fire!
In San Jose, there is a great place for BBQ meat: Sam’s Bar-B-Que. For sure worth it to check out the grill and see what meat is put on the Barbeque.
Great place to go have lunch when some colleagues from Europe are in town. It’s not that far from the office, so ready for some Ribs..? Just check out that menu:
The whole table took the Sampler Combo, in which you can choose between 3 sorts of different meat from the barbeque. The men of Mettsalat would have been proud!
Here you see the baby back ribs, the beef ribs and the BBQ beef, with garlic bread, potato salad and chili.
You almost are going to eat like an animal. At least I still have my fork and knife in my hands. You can eat with your hands here!
And then after 20 minutes, the plate of meat was gone… only bones left…
So if you see this sign, stop behind this nice establishment en saddle up for some nice BBQ meat.
