Long?s Noodle House ? Revisited with Food Bloggers

I am a procrastinator … it’s in the genes.  I know that.  But the thing is that I remember what I said I would do.  It might take me a long while but I will eventually get down to it.  Like saying “let’s do it in a couple weeks” … and carrying it through in seven months.  That is me.  That is Ben.

I had been talking to Christina and ET (Doesn’t TasZte Like Chicken) about organizing a gathering since last fall.  This time I carried through.  So, I organized one with the bloggers that I had met at one point or another before.  Being the organizer, I went with the choice of a restaurant that I know will work … that I had been there before, knows the menu, not too expensive and will meet the demands from bloggers.

So we met at Long’s Noodle House.  See my previous review here.  Suanne made the reservation a few days before.  With Long’s you want to make sure you make a reservation because they are always packed for dinner.  Moreover, their restaurant is small.  When Suanne made the reservation, she tried to order some of their dishes that need to be ordered at least a day ahead but they were too busy to entertain her at that time.  It was no big deal because all their other dishes are pretty good.

Wine Chicken … $6.  This is my favourite dish in Long’s.  I’ll not expand on this as I had already blogged about this dish before.

The dish above is the one which won the “Most Innovative Dish” award last year.  It is Crispy Rice with Salted Egg Yolk.  It is an unique dish but is somewhat simple dish too to me.  I am quite surprised that a dish of such simplicity could have won the most innovative dish award.
