Chinese food -- Las vegas

    Las vegas welcomes tourists from all over the world every year, every month, every day. So it has different food for people from different places to choose. For some of you haven't been to Taiwan yet, 阿宗麵線 is the right restaurant to go. 阿宗麵線 is a chain restaurant, the one in vegas is just one of it's branch.

滷肉飯 (pork rice)





See what we ordered! As a Chinese, some of those food is new for me as well. It's Taiwan flavor, and it's different from food from China mainland.


Dessert: red bean milk shaved ice 


Enjoy !!! ^ ^

Seafood cross street

    As I said, food in Crab Landing is just so so, if you don't care about the atmosphere or nice view when you having food. The one just cross street named KETCH JOANNE RESTAURANT AND HARBOR BAR is another good choice for you.   


It's an old country style restaurant, you'll see a lot Americans sitting inside eating with their family or friends when you walk in at dinner time. I like that kind of decoration, if you are tourists come to the USA for the first time, you can have the feeling that this is the America still that in your mind.

Here comes the food

Clam chowder is my choice, they have more to order and you can ask for soup of the day to see if they have any special. 

                                        Steamed clames 

My main course: Captains Cippion 
(source is very good and you can add pasta with it)

I don't like seafood very much personally, but this one you can go and try it once. While for the reason I said once is because the price is not for everyday dinner, I mean for student like me, have no incomes.  LOL

Enjoy !!! ^ ^

Half moon bay Crab Landing!

When looking at my photos taken at Whynn's buffet restaurant, that long crab leg remind me a crab house at half moon bay. I went there last october with my friend, the restaurant call "Crab Landing", nice name LOL.

You also can find it at yelp http://www.yelp.com/biz/crab-landing-seafood-and-steakhouse-half-moon-bay-2.

Now the crab!!!

















Then cheese oyster

Actually, the reason I recommend this restaurant is not only because the food, I should say food there is just 3 and half stars, but the view and environment is very nice. 



If you go travel with your lover, if you are tired because you have been walked the all day long, while you still want to see some beautiful view, this is the right place you want to go.


Having dinner with the right person, watching beautiful sunset outside of window, when the glow showing in both of your face, you may see happiness. ^^



Enjoy that !!! ^ ^

Las Vegas Buffet!!!

    Las vegas has so many casino and almost every casino has at least one buffet restaurant. I didn't go to every buffet in Las vegas, I just went to some that recommended by my friends who have been to vegas several times.

    The buffet restaurant in this hotel is the one I'm going to recommend to you today. Whynn is on strip street, keep walking towards north strip, you will see it.

   I'm sorry that I didn't take pictures of all the food they have, for the reason that I didn't know I will have a blog like this. Now you can just see food through my plate and plate of my friend's.


Food in my plate

Japanese Food in Las Vegas

As a full time student, the best thing is that I have 2 vacations every year. It's the perfect time for me to go traveling and have nice meal on my way. The latest winter vacation just pasted about 10 days, during that time I went to Las vegas for several days, it was fun!

Las vegas has a lot good buffet restaurants in different casinos, but this time I'll talk about a small Japanese restaurant that I found in this huge sleepless city.

Go through Spring Mtn.  avenue you'll see this restaurant is near Las vegas's Chinatown, on the second floor, Ichiza (市座) is it's name. This is Ichiza at yelp, you can see more information there: http://www.yelp.com/biz/ichiza-las-vegas

Ramen is one of the chief special
(very huge one, girls can share with each other)


















BBQ is the most important reason why I chose this restaurant

Japanese BBQ meat especially oxtongue (don't be scared, oxtongue is very popular both in Japan and Korea, and it's very tasty) are very famous.


















DESSERT~~~!!! My love

Honey toast
Very simple one but taste so so so... good!! As you can see from my picture, baked toast has a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, finally poured honey on the surface. Cut a piece of toast dip into the honey vanilla ice cream,  crisp warm toast with icy sweet ice cream, I can't describe the feeling that when those things are in your mouth at them same time!























Enjoy!!! ^ ^

Japaness Food around San Mateo downtown

Hello guys, this is my very first blog in English, I feel a little bit unsure. I'm pretty sure about what food I'm going to introduce to you, just afraid that my poor English can't give you the same feeling as I had when I was enjoying those YUMMY food. While I'll try my best!  :)

Since I'm living in San Mateo county, I'll start with some nice food nearby. Hope you'll like it. When you walking at San Mateo Downtown, you'll see Japanese restaurants are everywhere. Don't ask me why, 'cause I don't know the answer, and you don't need to know why, all we have to do is focus on the food, find the one we like.


Some dishes you have to order in San Mateo Japanese restaurant:

    Spicy tuna hand roll

























Spider roll (made from soft shell crab)


















And of course my favorite sushi with scollop 
(they offer so many flavors, choose whatever you like)


















Don't forget dessert after your meal, usually they have mochi and ice cream for you to choose, but I like the one Tokai (都會) has Tempura Cheese cake. I have to admit that I'm a cake person, and I'll oder tempura every time I go to Japanese restaurant, this dessert is a perfect combine for me, fired cheese cake is hot and sweet and melt immediately in your mouth, eat with strawberry jam will make you feel it's not too rich to take that whole piece of cake. You must try this if you have chance to be here, I'd love to hear what would you say about this. 



Enjoy!!! ^ ^
