Sam Woo BBQ (breakfasts) (again)

Thanks for stopping by to read mmm-yoso!!!, a food blog.  Cathy is writing while Kirk is vacationing.

The last time I wrote about Sam Woo was in October.  This is a regular stop for The Mister and myself just before we go shopping at 99Ranch Market, across the hallway; we don't want our purchases to be influenced by hunger. 

C9B52F6E-3A33-4F0C-8A61-67E42316BA4A The price for breakfast has increased: now each item is $7.50 and hot coffee or hot tea is 70¢. The menu has remained the same.  How different from my first post about Sam Woo, in 2007 when each menu item was $3.20 and coffee or tea was 30¢.

27BB041E-ECDC-4299-9F66-A966B405DBA7 The BBQ pork lo mein is always a good choice.  The pork is tender and wonderfully flavored; broth, noodles and bok choy round out this plate. 

Always a filling, tasty and satisfying meal here.

  1. Love Sam Woo — this was our go-to for whole roast duck for MANY years. Now when I need a duck, I usually end up at 99 Ranch on Balboa. Sam Woo is on DoorDash so I need to give that a try.

  2. Sam Woo has been our go-to for eat in breakfasts, lunches and dinners for a few decades, Peter. Ordering a combination plate from the steam tray area while adding a pound of BBQ pork or a whole roast duck is a normal ‘bring home’ meal.
    The won ton noodle soup has been a breakfast choice many times, Soo. Those shrimp won tons are wonderful!
    The prices here are reasonable and the quality is consistent, Kat. We do enjoy it here.
