well if they got it from India .. then i guess u know what i mean .... man i am eating them after like 1 yr ... had a friend visiting paris, so he got it
had some unagi donburi from Mitsuwa.....good stuff.
also bought Calpis large bottle 50.7 ounces for $2.50 Peach flavor, on sale.
Also had a Okaka Onigiri, $1.
Ate at P.F. Chang China Bistro, Chinese restuarant at Oakridge Mall. Went there because when I first saw it, I thought it would be nice and good and my friend called me today and said the place is awesome. Went there to eat lunch with my uncle and my brother and it WAS THE WORST!!!! The service was horrible. Waited like 20 min just for the appatizer and like another 25 min for dinner (felt like this and maybe longer...) The food is edible, but it doesn't have the chinese taste.....too americanize. There sweet and sour pork was sweet, but not sour...tasted more like KFC's Honey BBQ Chicken. The Chang's Spicy Chicken that I ordered wasn't spicy and wasn't great. My uncle's Wok Seared Lamb dish did not taste like Lamb and the meat wasn't hot either. The meat tasted like the meat my family uses for one of the Vietnamese Sandwhiches and I know that that meat isn't lamb. All in All the Fortune cookie there is all we bragged about. IT was GOOD!!! but the fortune inside is all BS. Never eating there again :shakehead:

So americanized that there was only one chinese girl working there. My uncle said he saw no chinese chef........i mean yea, Oakridge Mall, more americans then Asians...but its suppose to be an Chinese restuarant....(Not saying that Americans can't cook chinese food :shakehead: ). It was TOO pricy for what its worth. $50.50 for something I can cook better at home :grumble:

Aww K.T. you shoulda mentioned it before you went there... Of course, you wouldn't have listened anyways. ;)
Yeah, that place is overrated AND overpriced. There's one out here in Manhattan Beach and I thought the food at Panda was better. :hehe:
It's just a frou-frou restaurant for people who don't know any better.
