Chinese food with Chinese People! (and Niagara Falls)

Here we are in front of the Falls on the NY side. It was pretty breathtaking and as a Colts fan – he loved the one area shaped like a horseshoe – of course!
Another favorite moment was when Larry taught Gong how to skip rocks – something so simple breaks the language barrier and was so fun to see.
Let me tell you – hearing five Chinese people order Chinese food from a Chinese restaurant is a lot funnier than it sounds. Our waiter was Malaysian and just couldn’t figure out what they wanted. 15 minutes later (poor kid) – a more senior staff member came out and in about 30 seconds – he had it all down. We were cracking up – we didn’t understand a word and we had no idea what the heck we were going to eat – but it was entertaining nonetheless!
They ordered a smorgasbord of dishes – we all went around family style and it was all fantastic! There were things I’d had before (Mongolian Beef) to things that were completely new to me (a steamed fish dish – wow).
I even tried Prawns! These were a lot of work to eat and those eyeballs staring at me were not helping things – but I tried everything. It was all really great – I’m not sure how much attention I was paying to the food since we were laughing and reminiscing about our trip so much – but it was a great meal and we all left stuffed!
Why Should You Go? It’s not fancy by any means – but everything we ate was delicious! I’d say – ask for the Chinese waiter in his 30s and tell him – just give me something good – and I have a feeling – you’ll be happy!
