What's Cooking?

[Terrierman]

There's a corned beef in the crockpot right now.  Cabbage, new potatoes and carrots will go in later.  I won't bore you with photos, it's not all that pretty anyway.  But it always tastes great.

This isn't cooking but it is food related.  We have an honest to gosh great Chinese restaurant in Springfield.  Corner 21.  Ranked #17 nationwide and it's legit.  We have a tradition of meeting Lovey's grandson and some of his friends who are in school down here for a meal a couple of times a month.  We met at Corner 21 yesterday - seven college boys and two old people.  We did family style with everyone ordering something different and sharing with the table.  Eleven different items covering the gamut,  Sweet and Sour Pork that's nothing like I've had anywhere else, Stir Fried Noodles, fish and tofu pot, lamb with leeks, cashew nut crispy chicken (NOT sgf cashew chicken!) chicken with mushrooms pot, braised pork belly with rice noodles, steamed pork buns (think big steamed dumplings) pineapple chicken and a few I can't remember.  What a great meal it was.  Plenty of leftovers for them to take with.  The boys have gotten to know us pretty well - some of them go back a few years during HS Baseball - and we have a great time together.

I haven't seen a menu like theirs since I was in Hong Kong.

I wish that we had a really good Chinese restaurant around us. The best and most authentic was ABC Chinese cuisine in Columbia. They closed not long after we moved to MD. In 2019 they had a potential robber that thought fell through the ceiling and died.

I would’ve liked that arrangement to get to try a bunch of different stuff.
