From time to time, a ferret attacks the bait and wrestles the thing. While we talk, Wright, 53, who has a compact build and silver-gray hair, dangles a green velvety lure on a string. Ferrets,” he says, “are doglike in their need for attention, but catlike in that they do what they want to do.” I couldn’t have a dog, but I wanted an interactive pet. “I lived in a small apartment in North Park.
UNIVERSITY VILLAGE SEATTLE DIM SUM PLUS
At China Gate (which is the most reliable place we have found it in Seattle) as in Hong Kong, it is served in a Pyrex pie dish.“I’ve had ferrets for 25 years.” He bought his first one from a shop called Pets Plus in Yuma. The interesting part is the top which is all the parts that could be in a complicated fried rice, plus gravy! I always thought this was a way to use up leftovers - it has a little duck, a little fish, a little shell fish, mushrooms, peas and who knows what else -all in this remarkable dark gravy (definetly more a gravy than a sauce). It is a type of fried rice really, the rice itself is the simpliest of fried rices with just egg in it I believe. The response was something that surprised us, but then we figured out he was really saying "Fukien Rice", as in that part of China.
We found it in a Hong Kong Dim Sum place by pointing at someone else's table "what is it called?" we inquired. It is on their regular chinese menu, but it is sometimes difficult to get understood.įukien rice is a great dish but difficult to find.
I'd be interested in hearing what Brian thinks of the Fukien Rice at China Gate and how it compares to what you get in HK, and in general his opinion of Jeem - if you get to the east side.īummer, sorry you didn't get the rice. In restaurants such as Jade Garden, China Gate, Imperial Garden, Noble Court and Jeem the larger Sunday selection is very apparent, its not that there is anything missing on the weekdays - there are just more and more exciting things on Sunday and to a lesser extent on Saturday. There are many things that are offered on Sunday that are probably not even supplied for on any other day, this is especially true if you are ordering off the carts - you will see better than twice the variety on a Sunday. This turnover means the food is always fresh and hot, even on the carts. I would be surprised if Dim Sum restaurants in San Francisco, Oakland and Seattle at least, don't do at least 30% more business on Sunday than on Saturday and substantially more than on weekdays or evenings. i really appreciated that attention to the food by the server.ĭim Sum is a traditional place/meal for after church on Sunday(at least for families I know), you will find Sunday Dim Sum more crowded and with more variety than any other day of the week, even Saturday.
at one point, the server was about to give us a steamed dumpling of some sort, lifted the lid and, realizing the dumplings were cooled, apologized and asked us to give her a moment to get a fresh plate from the kitchen. though we were seated in the back room (main dining area was full), the "cart" (items were brought up on trays b/c there are several steps up from the main level) was circulated with regularity and the items were hot and fresh. I did end up making it to Jade Garden a month ago, and that's a spot i would try again. i will say that i find the service under the new ownership to be more friendly and attentive, which isn't nothing. (i happen to be very particular about chinese food.) the sticky rice was excellent. in my opinion, i found the rice wrappings and noodles to be over-cooked and on the soggy side, and the gai lan was a tad mushy as well though the flavors of each offering were nice. it was just my preschooler son and i so we didn't try too many dishes, but the dining was fine and i might go back if i have a craving and don't want to trek to the ID. Tighe, to your point, i just had dim sum at IG today (was "in the neighborhood"), and it was more enjoyable than i expected.
