Had dinner with the parentals before we flew out on separate trips. Lobster steamboat at Wah Lok! Of course I popped a pill first. Wasn't going to run the risk of getting swollen eyes or rashes. Luckily no one likes mala (麻辣) or strong soup bases. WHEWWW. The usual light superior stock would do. Probably chicken. Whatever. As long as it doesn't contain that chickenny-stink. Spices are always found in the form of chilli padi and pungent diced garlic. I could eat a ton of that.
Ordered were plenty of other dishes. Didn't care much for the meats. The others at the table could have it all. I wanted the vegetables- three types of cabbages and three types of mushrooms. And two types of sliced fish. The restaurant doesn't serve fish balls though. But they do pretty good prawn dumplings (wontons).
As if lobsters in the pot weren't enough, we ordered more- in the form of lobster noodles! It was an extremely satisfying bowl. I had been out since 6am, and it had been a really long day without lunch. Was starving by 6pm and could eat loads at dinner. That I most certainly did.
