椒豉炒石螺 Sauteed Snail with Chili and Soy Sauce - The snails were very very easy to get out without a toothpick! Thumbs up for that!!!
節瓜蝦米粉絲煲 - Dried Shrimp and Squash with Vermicelli in Casserole. In lieu of soup, we ordered the light and fulfilling soup that was served over a flame!
“石本”仔“火局”魚腸 Baked Fish Intestine in Clay Pot - The waitress claimed this is a Canto/Hong Kong dish...I guess I don't know much Hong Kong dishes than I originally thought because I've never heard of Fish Intestine before. Honestly, I couldn't taste the fish, just tasted the eggs and roast pork and the green herbs.
蒜香雞 House Special Chicken - Literal translation of the Chinese name is "Garlic Fragrant Chicken" and we surprisingly finished the entire chicken!!! The sauce was very good, not too salty, unlike some of the other dishes we ordered.
雜菌扒炸豆腐 Fresh Mixed Mushrooms and Fried Bean Curd - When we went to Congee Village for dinner the first night Meanie was back, we ordered the same dish, but I remember there being more variety of mushrooms than last night's dish...and this was one that was a bit too salty.
核桃蝦球 Walnut Shrimp - Haven't ordered this dish in a while, the glazed walnuts were good!!! Is it bad that I like those more than the shrimp?
風沙田雞 Deep fried frog with Salt Pepper & Garlic - Is it weird that this dish is listed under Seafood? Neither the Chinese or English names resemble seafood to me...the crispyness of the breading is where all the flavor is!
北菇牛肉伊麺 Beef and Mushrooms with Longevity Noodles - Another dish that was too salty...I wish we can make these noodles at home too! Time to look up some recipes again...and the beef wasn't the best either, my parents' were by far better!
海珊骨 House Special Shrimp Paste Spareribs - They supposedly forgot to put this dish in for us, but for some reason it came out a few minutes after we asked them about it and said that they don't have to bring it out. For some reason, the bill noted it as 蒜香骨/Garlic Fragrant Spareribs instead of the House Special version, and it actually didn't taste like what it normally tasted like. I decided to order this dish to "make up" for the 京都骨/Peking Style Spareribs that we ordered the last time because that was just way too sweet.
We went to dinner there too late that they no longer had any 例湯/House Soup or 糖水/Dessert Soup anymore...next time we have to go during normal dinner time. The food were too salty last night that I woke up in the middle of the night for a drink...normally Congee Village is good with the seasoning, maybe the chef was just in a "salty" mood last night? Will definitely go back to give them another chance!
