HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE CHIN!!!

Food this weekend ->
Picked up a Jerk Chicken dinner meal from NU Caribean on Friday night.  Excellent meal and very filling.  The chicken is very good.

Went to Montreal for the Canadian Thanksgiving long weekend, but we went for our uncle's birthday.  We had a whole roast suckling pig at lunch time.  It was good and juicy with lots of crispy skin.

Soon later we went out for dinner at Chinese restaurant for a big meal.
Started with fish maw soup.

Deep fried shrimp and pork sausage wrapped in tofu, with pickled daikon and carrot.  The pickles worked perfectly with the meat.

2 Lobsters in lobster sauce.  The lobster seemed small, but the sauce was very good.

Sweet and Sour Pork.  Standard dish, but came too late.  We were all already pretty full.

Fried rice.  I was near full when the fried rice showed up.  BUT I ended up eating 3 bowls of rice mixed with the lobster sauce.  It was a perfect combo that was really delicious and made me (and Linda) eat more.

Chow mein.  The must-have birthday noodle dish.

Dessert was next.  Cakes and fruit.  Dino got 2 cakes from Les Delices Lafrenaie.  She got a Chocolate Strawberry Shortcake and a Lemon Raspberry Cake.

I tried both.  I prefer the Lemon Raspberry, but both were good.

Useless Toy News:
Picked up some Lego sets on Friday because I wanted the exclusive Bricktober Lego Batman Movie set that was only available this weekend and limited to 50 per store.  It good that the gas station set was 50% off, so I didn't have to pay full price for Lego.
