Cantonese Bbq pork and roast pork belly over rice and pork meat ball soup. At short stop at HKG airport with a classic Cantonese deli meal. When I lived in HKG this was my favorite meal. I found great little restaurants that served this classic dish. Yet the first time I had this dish was in LA. I remember my mom bringing home bbq pork in a paper bag lined with foil. I remember later in college, we’d go to Sam Woo’s 三和 in Chinatown to order this or beef chow fun. I later grew to appreciate roast pork belly, too. Bbq pork or chasu or 叉燒 or cha siu. . . .

Nectar of gods or motor oil. Moutai Jiu is undisputed and most popular white wine of China. My classmates and I had a great dinner with Moutai. From the southwest region of China in Guizhou, Moutai has a unique flavor - you have to grow to like it. But some people will feel that Chinese white wine is like motor oil or rubbing alcohol. Strong AF. I do not recommend going up against anyone in a drinking contest if they can drink Chinese white wine. The typical shot of white wine is the size of a thimble. When u was in HKG I had a few drinking buddies who called ourselves the Moutai club. I have loads of stories of Chinese white wine. Another unique thing about this stuff is- you won’t get a hangover. I also think that Moutai, like tequila, get better after the third shot. Sorry for the ramblings. . . . .china

Late night eats at an old favorite in a new location, Tokyo

Late night eats at an old favorite in a new location. The katsudon - pork cutlet with eggs and onion over rice. I usually get the oyakudon, but tonight I wanted something different. Unfortunately, it was quite salty - too salty for me. So, after the bill was paid, I told the server and owner. They welcomed the feedback and interestedly, they said feedback is great since it comes from customers that care. The poles that don’t care, and have issues, they just won’t return. I know I will return. And I also recommend. Suehiros was part of my college life. I will always associate Suehiros as part of little Tokyo. It is too bad they couldn’t stay at their 1st street location. . . .

Barbecue at Had the fatty beef brisket, bbq pork belly char siu, roast pork belly siu yuk, pork ribs, dirty rice, and mapo chili. Went with my fellow bbq judges. Big thanks to for setting it up! Glad we got there early, thank goodness for the rain, and the time change - or else we would have had to wait forever. I recommend the brisket - fatty, the roast pork belly siu yuk (if they didn't give me the burnt parts), dirty rice, and the mapo chili (which could have had more sichuan pepper corn seasoning). I'd visit again to try the beef ribs and chicken and might recommend if you're in the area. . . . .
