We also ordered the lunch set that came with fried shrimp, fried pork, etc, |
In addition my husband ordered the fish-shaped dessert (sweet red bean paste inside the dough). He ate too much!!! |

The freshly cooked rice in the stone bowl is served at you table. |
These dishes in this picture were only a part of the free appetizers – we had more than 10 dishes in total! |
This savory egg dish was also the free dish. It was hot and very airy - we all love this one. |
The seafood Korean pancake. It had a lot of big chunks of squid and shrimp. |
The Korean BBQ (beef short rib). |
The BBQ tasted very good when wrapped in a leaf of lettuce! |
This is called “Al Jigae” – a spicy hot pot with fish (cod?) roe. This is one of our friend’s favorite, so we have to order this one! |
At the wedding reception, there were lots and lots of food.... |
And all-you-can-drink alcohol (and non-alcohol). |
This is the table we sat at. |
And of course, the wedding cake! |
The dinner started with the crab cake. It had a lot of crab meat and tasted good (but I was too full to finish it all). |
Then the spinach and mango salad. I managed to finish it. |
Lemon sorbet for refreshment. |
The main dish. I selected the beef steak, but I could eat only a few bites. I gave the rest to my husband. |
Today we went to the NY side by crossing George Washington Bridge from the NJ side. |
We had Dim Sum for lunch at Jade Asian Restaurant in Flushing. |
Dumplings with shrimp and Chinese vegetable. This had big chunks of shrimp and was very tasty. |
Duck egg and pork porridge. I love porridge! But don't like duck egg, so I gave all of egg pieces to my husband. |
They called this dish "fish tofu". It was steamed fish balls surrounded by tofu. I liked fish balls and flavorful soup. |
I believe this was beef tendon, but I did not eat it so I am not very sure. |
Steamed pork spare rib. This tasted much better than the same dish at China Pearl in Boston. |
Rice noodle rolls with shrimp. Ummm, I didn't like the skin very much. |
Stir fried octopus. Octopus was very soft and yummy... |
Steamed custard buns. I liked the sweet custard, but the skin could be better... The bottom part of the skin was a little hard. |
These are huge statues in the lobby of the new building in Flushing. I don't know who they are... |
After lunch, we went to a Taiwanese bakery, Yee Mei Fong. |
We got 12 different flavored moon cakes. |
The stamp on the cake said "green tea with yolk". |
It has a yolk inside. It looks like full moon, indeed. |
We got thirsty, so we went to Ten Ren Tea for some iced tea. This shop is originally from Taiwan but now has many branches mostly in NY and CA. |
We ordered a large cup of star fruit flavored green tea. |
We had the perfect weather today. |
In the car on our way home, Poirot looked at me with his face pressing to his cage. |
He was getting sleepy and... |
Finally, Poirot fell asleep so deeply. He looked really ugly! |
