Went astray tonight, no burgers, hot dogs, or pizza; business dinner at Wong’s King Seafood in SE Portland, reportedly “the place” for great dim sum. \u00a0Don’t think I will venture out for that, undoubtedly crowded. \u00a0Liked it tonight, very few customers and we had one of the private dining rooms anyway.<\/strong><\/p>\n

My host, another old China hand like myself, had arranged to have a high level strategy meeting for his business, and supplied the room, grub, and beer. \u00a0 He ordered as if we were still in China, hosting some locals, a veritable orgy of courses, splendid as all get-out.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The chopsticks peanut test. \u00a0Tsing Tao beer.<\/p>\n

Two kinds of fried tofu to start, the regular kind, and salt\/pepper spiced, lobster sashimi, shimp balls, duck skin, duck lettuce wraps, choi sum, singapore noodles, fried rice……….and on and on. Unbelievably good. \u00a0 Very authentic Cantonese. \u00a0We looked at each other near the end, our bellies full, eyes glazed over, and probably both thought “welcome home.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

I miss living in China. \u00a0I made the mistake of leaving the first time. \u00a0And then stupid me, I left a second time.<\/strong><\/p>\n
