"Ai, everyone I shared my dinner with last night thought the meatball dinner was delicious! I know I will be ordering more for my family and friends. My husband who was skeptical to eat food that "he did not know where it came from"  ate it and WOW, was he surprised. He asked me for more dinner which I had no more. So thanks for such a great meal."--Hilda

 *New Dinner*

Pineapple Cumin Pork
w/ Black Bean Garlic Rice, Mango Salsa & Slaw

"I wanted to let you know that the pork last night was absolutely delicious!" - Lynne

Country style ribs marinated in a sweet and smoky pineapple cumin juice then slow cooked 'til the sugars caramelize and the meat is soft and tender.  


Crispy Ginger Fish w/ Rice Noodles

*$2/25 or 4/$45*

"This is mine and Irene's favorite!" - Hilda

  I make this for a lot of our family gatherings (especially the Asian ones).  Yes, it's a whole fish, with bones and all!  If you've never tried eating fish on the bones, you definitely need to start with this.  The fish is rubbed with garlic and ginger and fried til nice and crispy.  To serve, just take a knife and lift at the two cut slits and pull apart from the bones. Place fish on top of rice noodles, salad and drizzle on some fish sauce.   (If you're absolutely terrified of the fish head, just let me know and I'd be glad to remove it prior to packing!) 

To Reheat:  You can either bake it at 350/375 til crispy or do a quick broil for a few minutes.
