Moon - Fall Festival
 Last weekend Oct.3 was our traditional Moon Festival. ( some people like to call it Fall festival , Luna , Winter, Feasting festival...up to you) It is a holiday where families like to get together to welcome and celebrate the Fall Season. And how we like to celebrate is to have a ........feast! very simliar to Thanksgiving but we have our traditional dishes. Geoff and I decided to start the day with Dim Sum, straight to Chinatown we went. Stuck in heavy traffic so we decided to get out and walk,then realized that it must be a long wait at most restaurant that serves Dim Sum.This holiday explains the super business in chinatown...... standing around ......Hmmmmmm....and then I saw " East Boat Lobster House" we looked at each other and grinned. Entered the restaurant, look just like a seafood shack with red gingham table cloth...cute.( It has been awhile since I last ate here) Geoff first time and gave it 2 thumbs up!  Menu was great...all photos with desciptions, english and chinese. Decided on the platter for 2:  Dungeness Crab - Steamed whole with side of lemon and butter - it was so sweet we actually did not need it. Can pick any style of your choice...fried , steamed, stir fry with garlic black bean.  Roasted Crispy whole Squab  Salt and Pepper Baked Shrimp Baked Scallop with Onion and Cheese ( sooo Kraft Singles ) it was still tasty!Let's see what else came with this platter...... chinese sausage fried rice ( good) omg i just remember , this is a not so heathly move I had some of the Crab roe and juice with the rice...yup tasty! and Calamari stir fried with pepper and black bean sauce, and also a salad which you can skip..mushy sweet weird... Did not regret we stumbled here :) The following night, friends and family got together and decided to dine out...Vegan style. Ate at this place called " Wild Ginger" it was surprisingly good. Super cute restautant. We had a nice night. Next night.... of course Mama Ng need to whip up some of her traditional goodies! Love it! Love it!
