My Second Meal In Chinatown San Francisco

My second meal in Chinatown is very much cheaper than the first one posted up here, for almost the same amount of the bill, we could order several dishes instead of just two dishes in the previous post!

Well, of course the ambience is very much different from the first shop we went to and the crowd here is definitely the proof for cheaper food in this shop...
we have to wait for a short while to get seated...
the tables were fully occupied...
let's see... what shall we order...
we were quite hungry by then...
we couldn't resist not ordering these.... and compare to the ones we have in Malaysia...
well, their meat is more tender and the skin is less crispier...
Beef tendons.... nicely stewed...
white beancurd cooked with meat and salted fish...
my mom loves this dish cos it is appetizing...
plate of yong chow fried rice...
fried noodles with less oil and garlic and that makes it a bit bland...
and some greens to balance up the meal....
 
A meal for 7 of us comes to only around $59usd ..
Cheap if you don't convert back to RM though...
But when it comes to TASTE, 
I am missing our local food now!   :))

  1. Hehehe, of course if you convert the money it's expensive and if you do that, you will not enjoy anything there. Regarding Malaysian food choices, that's why I keep saying to home folks that they are lucky to have so much choices and no problem dining at anytime!

  2. Yum! Yum! Food certainly looks yummy. Bean curd cooked with meat and salted fish is a Foochow dish - not my favourite but we do cook that sometimes.

  10. It's always the case when you are abroad. Never ever convert or you'll end up eating peanuts only. Each time I come back from abroad, I must have NASI LEMAK immediately upon touch down :D

  16. 8 dishes for only $59? Average $7.40 per dish. That is very cheap. I think your first meal in Chinatown, the bill might counted wrongly. It might belong to other table.
