1st course!
\n
\nI believe Allen might have said these were veal meatballs but honestly, I wasn’t listening to him because I was so hungry. LOL
\n2nd course!
\n
\nBecause of Allen, I now add sliced almonds and avocados to our salad! MMMM
\n3rd course!

\nI think this speaks for itself!
\n4th course!
\n
\nJuicy, tender pork! MMMMM

It’s not as good as East Harbor but they have some different things that East Harbor doesn’t have. I was pleasantly surprised that they serve Shanghai soup dumplings! MMMM!

(I still ate like 6 of them!) We rang out 2010 with a big feast and welcomed 2011 with a big feast! My friends Jana and Allen invited us over for a 5 course dinner on New Year’s Eve.

\nDumpling soup, it was just eh but it’s something I don’t usually see so I wanted to try it.

\nThe bill. $37 for 4 and a half people. Pretty good! There was more we ate that I didn’t take photos of. After a certain point, I just forgot and just stuffed myself!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
