Seafood market in SF for live lobsters?
Thanks to all of you for your help. I decided to try Sun Fat....and bing, bing, bing...big winner. Clean, friendly service...and most important, fresh, delicious live lobsters!
I bought two 1 1/2 lb. lobsters, steamed them up...and they were flavorful, succulent, and well-filled with meat...and even had delicious tomalley. I am so happy to find such great seafood in the Mission and will be back!
My friend and I were in heaven as we enjoyed them with champagne, plus noodles with olive oil, garlic and shallots.
Seafood market in SF for live lobsters?
A friend of mine is visiting town for his birthday and asked if I would him cook lobster. Yes, a strange request in SF in April, but I'm trying to honor his wish. Does anyone have idea about where I can find live lobsters this time of year? And will they be any good?
Chinese food in Seattle
We're always on the look-out for good, reasonably-priced Chinese food in Seattle. When one of our favorite places, Sichuanese Cuisine, was recently renovated, it made us very happy, especially as they haven't raised their prices.
They serve up great fresh hot food fast, from dumplings and soup, to spicy Sichuanese classics, and also do a great hot pot. Some of our favorites include their sichuanese dumplings, sichuanese steamed fish, and curry lamb. Nothing on the menu is over $10. Now that they reopened, they're in a cleaner brighter space too: 1048 S. Jackson at 12th in the ID. The only downside is that it's sometimese difficult to find parking.
What are other Chinese restaurants in Seattle that we should try? Favorite dishes?
