=============================
HIya Michael!
-> 
->  HN> kimchee crabs!!!!
-> 
-> That sounds most interesting. How were they? Did the acid
-> make the shells paper-thin and edible?
-> 
Sadly I did not notice that there were crabs available until I was filled
to the bursting point...I think another trip to this place may be in
order.....perhaps I'll wait till a visitor comes.....

->  HN> it back for us....oh..........my ..........gooness! first was spicy
->  HN> pork...nice bits of pork with good amounts of fat sliced very thin,
->  HN> she put them on the cooker and oh the sizzle and smell were great!
-> 
-> There's a place right in Rincon Center (say Lincoln Center with a
-> Japanese accent) in downtown SF that has excellent spicy pork,
-> just as you describe. I drool thinking of it.
-> 
You and homer simpson! (grin)
uh....and me too!

->  HN> Then some beef (who knows what cut but it was as well sliced very
->  HN> thin) then some bulgogi beef yum! Then something that looked like
->  HN> short sections of beef rib, about 2inches or so with the marinated
->  HN> meat wrapped around it like a package...she took scissors and cut
the
->  HN> meat along the bone and peeled off thin strip after thin strip and
put
->  HN> them on the cooker.....wonderful! we then were instructed to take
->  HN> lettuce leaves, soybean paste and some sliced up salad like stuff
and
->  HN> make some sort of korean taco with the meat and then eat....it was
->  HN> great! The waitress left and we went to work...and Anne mentioned
that
-> 
-> Bulgogi and kalbi are wonderful things - I could eat my life away
-> with them, and I'm not even Korean.
-> 
You're too obviously scandinavian to pass....however if I squint my eyes
just right when I look in the mirror .....I don't look Korean either (grin)
But I do like the food!

->  HN> the dinner was going to be expensive....I said why? She said she
->  HN> thought she had seen a sign when we came in that said 20.99
->  HN> each....and she got up to go check and see if she had been
->  HN> right....and she was 20.99 each for the buffet...I asked her why
she
->  HN> had not mentioned this until we were seated and eating and she said
->  HN> she thought I had seen the sign(I hadn't). So I decided I was gonna
at
->  HN> least get my money's worth outta the place.....and proceeded to
make a
->  HN> pig of myself...and boy o boy did I get stuffed! Dinner came to $45
->  HN> for the two of us quite a bit more than we anticipated but still an
->  HN> interesting dinner... They have a lunch special for about $15 which
we
->  HN> may try next time you come visit!  chat with you soon
-> 
-> 20.99 for ayce if it's good is not a huge thing, especially with the
-> massive beef option.
-> 
Lets just say I got my money's worth out of the visit....
-> =
-> 
->  HN> I've never had a bad lobster thank goodness!  chat with you soon
-> 
-> I'm sure you could be accommodated, should we wish to do so.
-> It's quite possible to ruin a lobster. My mother once was
-> served a dead lobster at La Colline: it tasted okay but was
-> flabby and stringy and not so good. Pity, as everyone else
-> at table had an extraordinary meal. Lobster can also be
-> overboiled, overbroiled, oversauced. One of the nastier
-> things you can do is add far too much mayonnaise:
-> 
I'd just as soon not have that experience if you don't mind
Tomorrow is my Union Picnic...and even though I am retired now
I'm still expected to show up and do all the cooking...So tomorrow
I'll be cooking ribs, steaks, chicken, and maybe even a few hotdogs and
burgers too! I wonder how much meat we'll have tomorrow?
chat with you soon
