While yesterday's Fraser Street Chinese Food Restaurant came to somerville kitchen, tonight somerville kitchen was invited by one amazing 90 year old to her favourite Chinese restaurant.
A beautiful spread was ordered by our most gracious hostess, with many of her favourite dishes.
As I understand it, the Cashew Nut Chicken (in middle of picture) is the real favourite.
But due to a communication breakdown that we were waiting for another guest (and despite the order put in), the restaurant staff was peeling garlic for an hour as we were (or thought we were) waiting for our food.
The Pork Lettuce Wraps, first to arrive, redeemed the hunger wait time issue very quickly.
The lettuce fresh, the noodles crispy, the meat tasty - those were really good lettuce wraps.
And I am so glad they were good because some of us were so hungry that they were willing to devour the beautiful piece of art drawn in oyster sauce using chop sticks.
But now the platters were flowing.
The Spicy Green Beans were not extremely spicy, but tasty enough.
But I do remain perplexed (and I should have asked our hostess) whether there was meat in this dish or not.
But wait, the feasting is not over. More platters kept on showing up.
Another hostess' favourite are the Crispy Rice with Assortment of Sea Food. She asked for them to come separate, which is highly recommended.
The crunchy rice (more like what is stuck to the bottom of a pan) had a nice texture.
It sizzled as one poured the sauce on top of it. The combination was tasty and the platter disappeared very quickly.
And no Chinese feasting is complete without Chow Mein with Beef and Red Bean Sauce.
Noodles crunchy, and unlike yesterday's restaurant experience, you could taste the red bean sauce.
