Early-ish dinner, Kin Wah Chop Suey, just ahead of large Mother’s Day crowd.
Along with the usual omelet with green onion. No choi summ, enough vegetables on other dishes.
Mmm.
Be safe, eat well.

No pics today, apparently The Mouse deleted pics. Ugh! Technology! Filling out membership to become a Luddite.
Have to do it old school. Imagination.
The Mouse picked up one bitter melon from the grocery store. Ripe and kinda pale. The Mouse thought to use it right away.
Sliced off the ends, split down the middle, cleaned out the seeds and membrane. Thinly sliced.
For The Cat’s bowl, inspired by Okinawan dish Goya Champura, but vegetarian. Tofu, bitter melon, miso paste, tomato, beaten egg. The Cat slurped.
For The Mouse, goya salad. Bitter melon, tofu, lomi salmon, green onion, a drop of chili pepper water and shoyu. Mmm!
Okay, possibly try again, The Mouse has half a bitter melon left. No user error next time.
Be safe, eat good.

The rest of chop suey dinner. The egg drop soup was posted previously.
Kitchen did an excellent job. Mmm!
The Cat wanted a sizzling plate. The Mouse had to eat all the onions.
99% The Cat and The Mouse’s usual order. Consistent comfort food. 🙂
Be safe, eat good.

Kapiolani Seafood Restaurant. First tried last week for yum cha/dim sum. The Cat wanted to try dinner menu (dim sum not served during dinner hours).
Dish reminded The Mouse of Okinawan goya (bitter melon, eggs, tofu stew). Not bad, eggs were a bit overcooked but still tasty.
Slightly sweeter than what The Mouse is used to, first time try for The Cat (usually oxtail soup). Well made, kinda pricey, still worth it. Not an everyday order.
Be safe, eat good.

Quick eats in the neighborhood, Kin Wah Chop Suey.
No gravy. Mmm!
Green beans and bitter melon. Mmm again. 🙂
Leftovers for a couple of extra meals.
Be safe, eat good.
