Ho Yummy

Jenkins and I stopped by Congee Noodle House for dinner one day. We believe it is somehow related to Congee Noodle King or has the same owner…something like that. In any case, the menus are pretty much identical, as is the basic layout of the restaurant. It is located at 141 E. Broadway in Vancouver.

Jenkins and I ordered a few dishes to share. We started with a plate of rice with BBQ pork and roast pork. This dish is quite large, although I felt that they skimped a bit on the meat. It also came with a bowl of pork and root vegetable soup. I forgot to take a picture of the pork and rice but here is a picture of the soup. It had obviously been cooking all day and was very flavourful.

I was in the mood for noodles so we got fried “lai fun” noodles with 3 types of meat. Don’t ask me what the meat was because I really do not know! I suspect however, that it was pork, chicken, and…something else. This is normally one of my favourite noodle dishes but I found it to be too greasy this time around. The dish itself was quite large though and we were unable to finish it off.

To balance out our meat-filled meal, we also ordered a small dish of “gai lan” veggies with oyster sauce. This was very tasty and the gai lan was very fresh.

Overall, the meal really was not too bad. I kind of wish I had ordered some noodles that were not as greasy but I will just have to remember that for next time.
