Back from the dentist. Let me say this right off the bat -- dentists scare me half to death. After being in the chair for three days with this group I am totally comfortable. TOTALLY COMFORTABLE. This is big, no, this is huge. I am healing beautifully and there is no pain at all. Today they replaced metal fillings - no pain, no discomfort and no swollen, numb face for hours on end. WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW.
When we got back we went to dinner at the Chinese restaurant up the street -- it too is one of the best restaurants in the city. The place was beautiful - white and red linens, beautiful red chair covers and, as usual, spotless. The food was amazing and portions massive.
Wantan soup w/ chicken instead of pork filling (the other option was shrimp) was not the small soup cup we're used to stateside - this bowl was huge. The stock was chicken based with ginger, scallions, cabbage and just a touch of cilantro. The wontons were full of chicken. It was delicious.
Doug ordered Chicken Fried rice and had to bring some home -- which never happens. I had their version of Mongolian Beef. The beef was tender and wok fried in Panko. The sauce was a bit different than I'm used to but still wonderful. Chinese food in a Central American country -- gotta love it.
