Last night we felt the need to celebrate the wifey's 2nd 29th birthday. We went to darlin's and went to Pei Wei with her family (wifey's choice - normally we let the kiddos decide which almost always means Cici's). First of all any meal with 2 3 year olds is interesting. So we piled into the soccer van and headed to Pei Wei. Going through the line and ordering went without much difficulty other than deciding which item we are going to order and complain about 2 hours later when we are hungry again. Speaking of being hungry this is actually two hours after the meal, so time out for a minute...................................... Much better.
I ordered Caramel Chicken with fried rice. The chicken was coated in a delicious sauce that obviously had some caramel, but other spices also. It also had the following ingredients on the plate - pinneaple, ginger, garlic, lemongrass, mint, rice sticks, Asian slaw of cucumbers, red bell peppers, cilantro, carrots, red onion, Fresno chili peppers, and Vietnamese Vinaigrette. This created a variety of tastes in each bite. It was pretty interesting and tasty. I washed this meal down with Diet Raspberry/Vanilla Coke (I really like these new fancy Coke dispensers that allow you to get multiple flavors). The Caramel Chicken with fried rice gets a 7.45.
By the way when we left, Pei Wei had 3 or 4 employees cleaning up where "Big Guy" had sat. He was probably hungry leaving since all his food was scattered everywhere. Oh well, he is cute. I sat across from Lil darlin and for once she didn't comment about how fat I was. So this was a good meal.
For dessert, wifey had purchased a pettifor from CASA LINDA BAKERY for each of us. Now everything from CASA LINDA BAKERY is dreamy wonderful. Giving the pettifor a 10 (I was told by wifey that it was a 10 or else). Did I say it was a 10, just wanted to be sure.
Darlin reminded me that I needed to review the Poor Mitch sandwich from Mitcho's Kitchen. So coming soon, the Poor Mitch!!!!
