Oh man oh man
Those dawgs! You are a very lucky man. Those are almost my version of hot dog heaven. I'm a Coney Island kinda guy: dog, chili, raw chopped onions, mustard (Guldens spicy brown), pickle relish.: nothing else, no cheese, no ketchup. Side of fries, and a Dr Browns. Yowza! I salivate just thinking about it. Good thing such creations are pretty much unknown in Asia - I gotta get my fix on my once-a-year trip to the States.
TM, thanks - I'll have to try the French Window: I've passed it often but never entered. Based on your pic of the lamb chops, I think I need to rectify that situation!
The three best dishes I've had so far this year...
Roast breast of duck at The Wing CX Emerald and First Class dining room room, Hong Kong International Airport. Thick cut, with skin...tender, moist, Q, flavorful...transcendent. Their menu changes and two weeks later they didn't have it anymore... :-( Roa...
Genwa Wilshire only requires a car, no flying needed...
Unless you want to use your cape... :-)
Hehehe...
You know my weakness, doc...and crunch when you bite them natural casing too! :-)
re: OMG
The have this crunch/snap to the hot dog casing that makes it really good. They have burgers and tamales and stuff but the dogs are the reason why they have gotten so famous. They opened in Vegas and other places in L.A> but the original on La Brea is ...

it's our very own Pink's...
I like Nathan's, they do a good dog. Here in L.A. we have Pink's, their hot dog has a great chili that isn't greasy and just the right spices. Usually a long line all day every day but IMO worth the wait. It's been a foodie landmark around here so if you ...
Oh yes!!! BLT Burger in...
Oh yes!!! BLT Burger in Harbour City is pretty satisfying. Stepping up a notch, I have no complaints about Beef & Liberty or the Butchers Club Burgers either. Unfortunately I don't think any of them does hot dogs though. Maybe I should give up the day job...
So, let's see - burgers,...
So, let's see - burgers, chilli dogs, XLB, sweet/salty combinations for dessert, and now wings. I'm afraid you and I have pretty much exactly the same palate! (While we're at it, I have this crazy idea that a buffalo wing chain would do really well in mai...
The lamb was a standout...
The seafood platter was excellent, bone marrow and snails was interesting and good, duck gizzard salad a pass... ...
Bone marrow!
So I checked out their menu online and there's a whole section on bone marrow. Awesome, if artery-clogging. Could this be a replacement for St John now that I've left London? Thanks - I've been missing a sort of French grand café kinda place, a sort of HK...
Possible lunch DRMW
or would this ruin my dinner? Ready for January 2015. Best, JerryW
We've done it before...
We've gone to Lawry's for Prime Rib and then head out to Pink's for a chili dog. :) Look forward in meeting up again! -MW
So...hmmm...is the prime rib the...
So...hmmm...is the prime rib the appetiser, or is the chilli dog dessert?!? :) On 25 Oct, 2014, at 16:03, www watchprosite < [Email address suppressed for privacy] > wrote:
Oooops...
Forgot to mention that at Lawry's you MUST get their Ice Cream sundae. They use CC Brown's Hot Fudge (it's old school Hollywood stuff) with warm peanuts and whip cream. Here's the half portion: :) -MW ...
Gosh, how many people does the full portion serve?
That alone makes it look worth going! Haven't had prime rib in a while. Perhaps I need to make the trip soon...
When it's December...
I barely finish the Lawry's cut and one side and once in a while can make room for dessert. I see a lot of people polish off an appetizer, the larger Diamond Jim Brady cut plus a lobster tail then do dessert. A good friend of mine has no problem chowing d...
I hear you: last night...
I hear you: last night Mrs E and I had 6 oysters and shared a single smallish steak between the two of us for dinner, and that was plenty! I haven't been to the local Lawry's, although I did check out the menu yesterday - it didn't list desserts, nor does...
re: last night
HK style steak is served on a sizzling hot plate and they douse it with a gravy/sauce on top. Boston (probably the most well known for HK-style steak), Sammy's Kitchen, Anna, Tai Ping Goon, and Goldfinch to name a few. It's more of a old school touristy t...
impressive
looks real good, nice to see you're enjoying the dining on your travels. Regards, ED2-209
OK I'm drooling...
Working late tonight and kind of wish I did not look at these photos! Cheers TM :-)
Here's the deal...
You make it out to L.A. and the local L.A. PuristS will take you to Genwa for Korean BBQ. Make sure you extend your stay as we'll be talking 1911's and AP's all night long. :) -MW
Those PuristS know how to party...
LMK when you come down too. I'll try to partake if I can. It's only a short flight from SF to LA. Or a really long drive.
You guys are on.
2015, MichaelC will visit LA. The beginning of the year might be a bit busy but I will fit this trip in. Korean BBQ, 1911s, AP... I might not want to come home!
Good deal.
You might not want to come home. But it's okay, LA Traffic will scare you home. How's the traffic in Colorado?
Looks Delicious...
I'm getting hungry just by looking at this. Really looking forward to my dinner at SONS & DAUGHTERS in San Francisco in the next few days...
Your food choices are....
amazing. Top selection for any culinary admirer. Made me salivate:) The photos are equally good. Below is a picture of one of my creations, during outdoor barbecue in a park this summer. Polish bbq sausage with potato salad and a portuguese bun. Lovely. R...
Not sure...
Hi, Edward, not sure if you were referring to me or Doc DRMW but if me and my choices, thank you, you are too kind... I love sausages, almost any kind... Also wine... ...
Yum!
I enjoy the fragrance of sausages. There's a restaurant in Los Angeles called Wurstkuche that sells more-or-less only sausages and beer. That's what I'm currently thinking about when I see your mouthwatering photo. Oh, even the best airplane food is not a...
I agree. Sausages...
Polish, Italian, German, Hungarian tried them all, nothing beats one from an outdoor BBQ, on a bun with some condiments and nice cold beer.:) Regards Edward
Come to LA and visit these places...
Wurstkuche and The Pie Hole. They're my favorite places in LA. Also the restaurant Tasting Kitchen in Venice is fantastic! Yum yum yum! A long queue outside Wurstkuche. A beer to consume while queuing. Select your sausage... I haven't had boxed water befo...

+1 on your suggestion Thomas; one of the best dining venues during our honeymoon. Allow me to also recommend the sea bass--it lost the battle with the chocolate frog. Choco frog vs sea bass ...
