chinese bbq ftw
like most geeks, nerds, and hackers, i too like spicy and asian food.
while not necessarily spicy, chinese bbq is very much asian.
and the best thing is: last week while shopping for office supplies we found one chinese bbq take-out place right next to the office max down at the stoneridge mall in pleasanton.
the place is in between the tri valley seafood reastaurant and the 1+1 chinese supermarket (which i just can’t find on the internet or even the yellow pages, must be an underground store :p).
it looks like the chinese go there too, which is a good sign ;)
you can score a nice meal with 2 bbq items (two kinds of pork, duck, chicken) and either of the two styles of noodles or rice for under $7.
even better is the amount you get, which is good for at least two meals.
anyways, if you’re not up to getting the bbq chinese style, i mean: the whole duck is hanging in the window, just waiting to get chopped into little pieces; this might not be exactly what you’re looking for.
yesterday, after watching the new bond i even got a little extra.
2x bbq & extra vegies for both & two crab soups on the house for even less than what you would usually pay for 2x bbq.
looks like they had a good day.
and here’s the question:
why even bother cooking if you can get chinese food for less money than it would take if you’d prepare it yourself?
i guess i’m really gonna miss all the yummy asian food back in germany :/
