Sunday Lunch
We had Sunday lunch in the hotel again, so inevitably there are some overlaps/repeats - but if it was good first time round - and it was - we weren't complaining.
So:
Beef Hotpot
Mixed Vegetables with
Black Chicken (Silkie) with
Stewed Chicken
Steamed Shrimp
Dry Fried Green Beans with Minced Pork and
This is some kind of aquatic plant. The locals called it "seaweed" but Hunan is landlocked and hundreds of miles from the sea, so I am sceptical. It was good though.
Pork, Celery and
Stir Fried Carrot Slices with
Roast Duck
Turbot again - no complaints
These were fun! Grade 1 Shiitake mushrooms.
Except, they aren't mushrooms at all! They are steamed buns. Sadly, in my view, they were filled with sweet bean paste. A spicy duxelles or similar would have been perfect. But they amused us.
Coming next: Sunday dinner.
