Peking Wrappers

Peking Sandwich

better than the previous night! the pineapple really adds to the flavor. i had three of these :P

Shrimp

ok there is a special name for this gigantic shrimp that resembles a lobster, but i really don't remember/know what it is. all i know was it was DELICIOUS! Plump! Juicy! Tender! Shell was nice and crispy to just eat it like potato chips and loves the brains! (roe) heheh

Crispy Fish

Pan Seared Tofu

sounds pretty regular right? well it's NOT! it's like crispy on the outside and soft-soft on the inside. not firm, but SOFT!
