I found a place that sells Li Hing in PB. Motu Hawaii. Ever been there? http://www.motuhawaii.com

Royal Mandarin reopens and Honey Pig revisited.
Royal Mandarin reopens: I thought it would be fun to do an ABCDE (American Born Chinese Dining Establishment) post, in the midst of my posts on China. And the reopening of Royal Mandarin would do just fine. I first posted on Royal Mandarin waaay back in 2005. Most folks who have been in San Dieg...
Looks good!
Off topic, but is there anywhere in San Diego I can find some li hing mui candy?

Tabe times two.... Tabe Grill and the Tabe BBQ truck
I'll be the first to admit that I've mixed feelings about the proliferation of "mobile cuisine". Part of me loves the concept, after all I grew up eating from "lunch wagons", many of which served up good grinds for cheap. And of course, there are the various taco trucks around San Diego that I e...
Gabrielle needs to take a knee and STFD. There's already a Princess of the throne: Monique (cycle 7).

Hello again!
I can think of only one proper answer to all this excitement: Anyway. "Hello" never sounds sweeter than when it comes in the form of "boo ho!" And so, I am pleased to once again kick off my America's Next Top Model Crying Count. As proven by the nine past cycles (ugh, I'm get...
RIP Royal Mandarin. The restaurant was on fire last night!

Lists and more lists: Our most memorable meals part 1
This is the time of year for lists..... and more lists. First there's the Christmas shopping list, then the post Xmas return list, followed by that all too inevitable New Years resolution list, and so forth. I often get asked to do lists, stuff like Pho restaurants, eating itineraries for visito...
Looks tantalizing. I pass by that truck all the time. I've never been, though. I may have to stop by, especially since I'll probably be doing a lot of xmas shopping at TRU.

Eating on the hood of your car: Mariscos El Pescador
A while back FOY "SomTommy", the very same individual who first told me about Sab E Lee, emailed me about a Taco Truck in the Parking Lot of RTA and Toys R Us in Chula Vista. There's wasn't much in the email other than the simple sentence "try the fish tacos......." I filed away that bit of inf...
Loved it! If only Nancy had used a cell phone instead of a landline in A Nightmare on Elm Street/New Nightmare...

No Signal: A Supercut
Given my love of editing and cliches, this was probably inevitable: a montage of contemporary horror and suspense cinema's go-to roadblock, non-working cell phones. I'm probably more psychotic than your average horror villain for sifting through this crap and compiling this (66 movies are inc...
You know what's scary about Pizza Hut breadsticks? I saw them making some for my order and they use industrial-grade (plain white can) garlic flavored cooking spray! All they do is take them out of the oven, give them a spray of garlic Pam and sprinkle their seasoning on top. I think I'll stay away from those next time.

A love like in the movies
So, I was sitting at the Union Square Regal Cinemas with my friends Mark and Kerry, waiting for The Final Destination to start (shut up, it's in 3-D). Behind me, I heard this woman freaking out and fawning at...something. I turned to see a young couple sitting behind me. The girl had a bouquet o...
You need to include the GIF of Chantal's eye falling off her face.

Reconsidering Project Runway
I've recapped a lot of shit at this point, but I never worked harder on any show than Project Runway, when I wrote about it during its second and third seasons. I remember one specific recap taking me over 10 hours to prepare and complete. What a stupid waste of time that was. (Although this d...
Looks amazing. Bacon wouldn't be so bad in the potato salad. But is your white pepper expired?
I'm definitely going to try that watermelon chiller.

Some quick and easy (and inexpensive) recipes to make for a picnic or snack at home
mmm-yoso!!! is a food blog and a few us just write about what we eat. Today, it's Cathy writing. Because Kirk and ed (from Yuma) are getting ready for the three day vacation, Memorial Day, formerly observed as Remembrance Day. {correction- formerly known as Decoration Day. Remembrance Day ...
