Weekend Report -> Happy Birthday Uncle!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE!!!

Food this weekend ->
Went to Montreal on Saturday for my uncle's birthday. 
We started feasting at 3pm.  It was mix-match of different foods.  There was tempura shrimp, chicken, bbq pork, roast pork, egg tarts, fruits, mushroom chips, creme brule, macaroons, and various buns.
Pre-Dinner Feast.

We went to Chinatown for a 7pm dinner at Kim Fung.  When we got there, we were told the reservation was actually at 6pm...  BUT since my uncle knew all the staff and owner like a boss, they kept our tables.
We started with Fish Maw Soup.  My favourite :)

Then the main dishes started arriving:
Yellow Chicken (I know how to make this now).
Yellow Chicken.
Tender Beef on Gai Lan.
Tender Beef on Greens.
Lamb, Mushroom, and Tofu Curd Hot Pot.  This was very good.  We used the sauce on the fried rice later.

Shrimp and Fish Loaf.  It's like meatloaf but with shrimp and fish paste.

2 Ginger and Onion Lobsters!  You've never had lobster until you had lobster made like this.

Shrimp on Baby Bok Choi.
Shrimp on Greens.
Yei Mein.
Noodles.
Steamed Fish.  I didn't like it.  It had a slight after taste of sweet "Vicks".  Not sure if it was the fish or if they used too much "something/mirin" in the sauce?

Fried Rice.  Wasn't fried enough (Not as good as mine too).

Dessert was orange slices, mini "boob" buns, and redbean soup.

Useless Food News:
My parent's got me some "Horse" dessert from a pasty shop in Chinatown before dinner.  It's so sweet, sticky, soft and chewy.
