Food::Late Saturday Dinner @ Yummy Kitchen

        I promised Dylan that the next time we go to a Chinese restaurant, we'll go to one of those that have the rotating center tables.  I also wanted to try having the traditional Chinese style dinner with the family, not the usual Orange Chicken or Mongolian Beef menu items that we usually get during lunch specials.  I've heard that Yummy Kitchen has some pretty good menu items during dinner.  First thing I checked on their menu was the seafood section and thought of ordering the Lobster with Supreme Broth but the waitress suggested the Lobster with Ginger and Scallion instead.  This was Dylan's favorite that night.

Jellyfish Salad
        For appetizers, we ordered their Jellyfish Salad.  Dinah and the kids didn't like it that much.  They said they don't like it because it's cold.  Well it's a cold appetizer after all.














Honey BBQ Pork
        We also tried their Honey BBQ PorkWe all loved this one.  It's like a cross between lechon and tocino.















         
        Aside from the Lobster with Ginger and Scallions, we tried their Peking Duck 2 Ways.  2 ways because first they serve the duck's crispy skin, wings and legs with sauce and steamed buns that looked like siopao with no filling.  For the rest of the duck's meat, they make lettuce wraps out of them (2nd way).  The Peking duck was Danii's favorite and said the crispy skin is like lechon.

1 Way - Steamed Buns (for the crispy duck skin)
Wor Wonton Soup









        Finally, we had some Wor Wonton soup.  We were all very satisfied with the food and the service.  Dylan was no longer feeling bad that he didn't get to order some Orange Chicken :)
