I went to Mongolian Barbecue for lunch.

[VenusRising]

Who knew Mongolians were so tasty?

:9

[MrCoffee]

1. i am green with vicious jealousy

i :loveya: mongolian barbecue

[VenusRising]

2. It was my first time.

And I am stuff-ed!

I had to unbutton my pants in the car. :rofl:

[MrCoffee]

3. that's how you know you did it right

i usually starve myself the day before so i can pack more in. love it love it love it.

[VenusRising]

6. My husband skipped breakfast this morning.

So, it must be a MB trend.

Although, I have no idea how anyone could eat more than one bowl of that.

[Kucinich4America]

11. depends on how big the bowl is.

I went to one place where the bowls were so small, you would have thought it was a bowl for smoking something out of, not eating. Of course you get around that by loading up two bowls.... one with the veggies and the other with the meat (no offense to the vegans)

[AnneD]

4. OhOh....

did you get to put the squid in the pit....that's almost as good as cooking frog legs. Scared the pants off my girl when she was young.

[VenusRising]

9. I don't know what that means.

But it would have scared be as a little kid.

I cried in the middle of a seafood restaurant when I was 4 because the stuffed crab was "looking at me". :rofl:

[AnneD]

28. The stuff starts...

curling up on the grill....almost as if it is alive (muscle contracting in the heat and all). Once I spanked it to assure her it was no longer misbehaving, she was ok with it.
My kid would eat the stuff cause I told her it was chewy like gummy bears....She loved it. Would polish off a seafood pasta dish (with visible squid and octopus).

[VenusRising]

30. Ohhhhh.

Duh. Apparently, all the blood was in my stomach when I read your first post.

My husband went with the squid. I had scallops and steak.

[AnneD]

33. In our family...we would frequently play gross out....

at the dinner table (to Mom's horror). We would try to make each other sick. I always won. I grew up to be a nurse...go figure.

[VenusRising]

34. I was an only child.

I had to play that game with my friends (to their mom's horror). :rofl:

[ThomCat]

5. I am SO Hoping

that LizzieGrace will let me cook in her kitchen (with a bit of help) so I can cook for you. I love to feed people, and I so rarely get to cook anymore. :hug:

[VenusRising]

8. That sounds fabulous!

I thought of you while I was choosing my ingredients.

They had a big thing of tofu and all the vegetables you could think of.

Hope you're feeling well today.

:hug:

[ThomCat]

14. I'm definitely feeling Happy today.

It's raining, so feeling well isn't really an option. Oh well. Such is life. :P

[VenusRising]

17. Happy is good.

:hug:

:hi: :hug:

[ThomCat]

22. Hi Wonderful!

:hi:

:hug:
You're close enough that that this weather is probably hitting you too. I hope you don't feel it.

[lost-in-nj]

31. not so bad

but we are suppossed to get 6 inces of snow tomorrow.....

:(

I hate snow.....


lost

[ThomCat]

32. My aunt and uncle live in East Brunswick and they're very worried

about the snow. My uncle works up in North Jersey and has been stranded at work in the past. :(

If it snows, I might be stuck at home just from the weather-related pain. So I agree with them and you about the snow. It's probably not going to be good.

[VenusRising]

26. Mine too.

It's just a happy song.

:hi:

[Love Bug]

7. We have "Kahn's Mongolian Barbeque" around here

For some reason I always expect Capt. Kirk to show up...

[VenusRising]

10. KAHN!!!!

:rofl:

[redqueen]

12. This lady at work was asking me where a Korean BBQ place was...

I've never tried either Mongolian OR Korean BBQ.

I guess it's good though, huh? :P

[VenusRising]

15. It was delicious.

13. If you put the sauces in half-way through filling the bowl...

...they all go in the bowl and not all down the sides and over the counter.
LOVE those ginger and garlic sauces...

Get the BIG bowl, end up taking at least half home with you in a carry-out...
it tastes even BETTER the next day, believe it or not...
:bounce:

[VenusRising]

16. That's a great tip!

I'm already strategizing my next visit. :rofl:

[badgerpup]

35. I likes your sig line. A LOT.

...and yeah, it sorta does take a strategical approach, doesn't it...

Just I like lotsa the 'crab' and chicken...and bean sprouts, and they're kinda bulky...so there's an art to filling yer bowl...
even if you DO go all Atkins and skip the noodles...:crazy:

[VenusRising]

36. Thanks. I like your sig line, too.

I went with the scallops and ny strip today. I also went with bean sprouts, but the bulk really came from the mushrooms I threw in.

I'm going to have to try to figure that out better. :think:

[lost-in-nj]

21. We don't have one here....

They were going to put one out on the highway.....
but they turned it into a commuter parking lot!!!!!


:hi:


lost

[VenusRising]

24. That is so unfair!

Who needs to park a commuter?? :eyes:

:hi::hug:

[SallyMander]

23. That sounds good

I'm hungry! Everything sounds good! LOL

:hi:

[VenusRising]

25. It was delicious.

I highly recommend going there.

You can even go online at their website and premake your bowl so you know what you want when you get there. It also gives you all the nutritional facts on the bowl. But if I'm going out to eat, screw nutritious!

We'll have to go there for lunch one day. I'll pick you up at the Cup-o-Joe or something. :hi:

[SallyMander]

27. Sweet!!!

Rescue me from the manuscripts!!! :D

[VenusRising]

29. Then I really will be a hero!

:patriot:

:rofl:

[KitchenWitch]

37. I like Mongolians, but I LOVE the Thais!

:D

[VenusRising]

38. Haven't had that yet.

Just something to add to the list of things I want to eventually try.

:hi::hug:

[KitchenWitch]

39. OOOH you are in for a treat.

My husband is half Thai, and he cooks... :D :9

[VenusRising]

40. Well, I'll be there for dinner Saturday.

D'oh. I can't. I'm having dinner with lizziegrace.

Well, the next time I'm in California, then. ;)
