“Eyes Bigger than …”

Sunday eats after The Cat took a long nap. Neighborhood chop suey, recently re-opened to dining-in.

“Pancake Wrapping”

“Moo Shu Pork”

This dish was “funny”, not quite what The Cat was expecting. The Cat and The Mouse should have been warned, had to order moo shu pork off the menu. Maybe chef was “winging” it. Hmm. More “chop suey” than “moo shu”. Hee hee.

Moo Shu Roll

The Mouse needs practice assembling.

Sizzling Seafood

More vegetables than seafood. The Mouse ate all the squid, The cat cannot chew. Some shrimp, fake abalone, and fishcake were the other seafood. Decent for the price.

Fried Porkchop

Won Ton with Vegetables Soup

The Mouse hasn’t eaten won ton for a while.

Too much food for The Cat and The Mouse, lots of leftovers. Mmm! 🙂

Be safe and well.

No Hainan Chicken Rice

The Cat took a family friend to lunch to catch-up. On line menu pictures indicated that Hainan Chicken Rice was a lunch special. Unfortunately, since the picture was posted, there was a change in ownership.

The Cat had to order ala carte.

Fried Pork Chop

Green Beans with Minced Pork

Fried Rice

The Cat said everything was ok, just ok. The Mouse fully understands, when your mind is set on a dish and circumstances beyond your control intercede, the stomach is not satisfied. The search for Hainan chicken rice continues.

Be well and safe.

Chinese Eats

Chinese food (Yen Yen Chinese Cuisine), allows eat-in for now. Our go-to chop suey (Kin Wah) is still take-out only. The Mouse has been here before, first time for The Cat.

The Cat ordered.

Pork and Watercress Soup

Cold Ginger Chicken

Shrimp Omelet

Long Bean with Pork

Everything was good and tasty, The Cat prefers the cold ginger chicken from Kin Wah, still edible though.

A back-up choice for Chinese food in the area. Yen Yen is a bit of a drive, about fifteen minutes compared with Kin Wah, five-minutes.

Stay safe and well.

Mmm Chinese Food

The Cat had another errand on the west side of SPAM Land. Lunch at one of our “new” favorite locations. Mandalay Restaurant. They used to be downtown which was a hassle for The Mouse. They downsized and moved to the Kaimuki area. Accessible parking, less crowded. Yay!

Steamed Tripe

Eggplant (Mild)

Seafood Fried Noodles

Custard Tart

Appears that The Cat will be making semi regular errands in that area, The Mouse is looking forward to more visits. Mmm. 🙂

Stay safe and well.

The Chop Suey Less Traveled?

Lately, for some reason, The Mouse has difficulty finding lunch on Saturdays. Yesterday was no exception. He couldn’t change lanes fast enough to reach a Japanese musubi and curry shop, the nearby golf course restaurant was closed for a private event. Ugh! The Mouse made his way here.

Front

The Mouse has been here before, a little out of the way for him, not as far as the other side of the mountain, but still, next town over.

Char Siu and Roast Duck on Rice

One of their lunch specials. good taste, good quantity, fair price. The Mouse took home half.

Also ordered a lunch plate for take-out, bento prep.

Lunch Plate

Beef with vegetables, cold ginger chicken, pot roast pork, rice, crispy wonton.

Two plates, four decent meals. Good deal.

Too bad the place is not closer. Maybe just takes a little more effort, and gas, on The Mouse’s part.

Heading out to the farmers market then brunch with doctor friend at Chef H’s restaurant. More exciting and expensive pics to come.

Enjoy. Eat well.
