COMC: Stuff we ate before our trip: The Waterfront Bar & Grill, Bay Park Fish Company, and lunch at Chin’s Convoy

Man, I'm still kinda feeling it, but didn't want to leave you high and dry. Here's a round-up of stuff we had before our vacation….the Missus, after spending too much time talking to folks on our trip now uses the term "holiday"……sigh. Anyway, just another COMC (Clearing out the memory card) post.

The Waterfront Bar & Grill:

Of course I needed to have a burger before we left, so why not The Waterfront early on a quiet weekday?

Just a burger for me…..no big deal………it did the trick.

Bay Park Fish Company:

We hadn't been here in a while and the prices here seem to have gone up. But it's still not bad for what the Missus enjoys here the most. The smoked fish plate.

I actually went for the crab cakes this time around.

Chin's Convoy:

Seems like I'd been eating here a bit more often recently. Though I really can't tell of anything I especially enjoy. Here's the Wuxi Spareribs which were fairly tender, but possibly too sweet if you're not used to what is often called "Jiangnan" style food…..that would be the cuisine of areas to the immediate south of the Yangtze river.

 Not bad, but the sweetness just got kind of tiring after a while….like a piano hitting the same key over and over again. I should have ordered two dishes and dealt with leftovers for dinner.

  1. This post reminded me of something that i often think of… what’s funny is that no matter how much “American” food is ridiculed as being boring things like burgers, despite my asian background yet having grown up in America… I sure do miss a good burger after traveling overseas. So I guess what I’m saying is cheers to a good burger…
