Day 5: Keeping it Asian

So, what happens when I don't have time to cook and decide to eat out? I go to an asian restaurant. 

Today, my friend and I decided to have a lunch date and went to Mhan Chung. It is a Malaysian restaurant and my go-to place for dim sum and chinese food. They have a pretty good variety of dim sun. Usually, I go for the steamed pork buns or fried sticky bun but I decided to try a new one. I kept it traditional with my juicy steamed pork buns. TO DIE FOR! You have to take a small bite to let the steam out and let it cool cause if you eat it all at once your mouth will burn because of the explosion of the juice. 

The new dumpling that we ordered was a shrimp and chives dumpling. My new favorite! It's crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. The shrimp and chive flavors are very pungent. I ate it with the duck sauce that they bring as dipping sauce for the fried wontons. It gives it a nice touch.

After we ate our dim sum, our main cause arrived! I warned my friend that it was going to be a BIG plate and I was right. We ordered Nee Goram(i think it was called that way) and it could feed easily 3 people. Nee Goram is indian noodles with squid sauce, bean sprouts, tofu, veggies, and lots of other yummy stuff.

You should try it! Mhan Chung is in front of La Concha's casino in Condado. It has free parking so that's a bonus! AND its opened 'til 2am!!!!
