This is the “Best Lunch in My Memory”. This lunch was one of the most impressive and delicious meals I had in Chinatown.
Please take your time and enjoy.
Mapo Tofu with Oysters
Lunch was in Chinatown.
I went to “Shimonshuro” on Chuzanro Street.
Today I ordered “Mapo Tofu with Oysters”.
Immediately, hot tea, soup, and Chinese pickles.
It was very cold, so the hot soup was perfect for my cold body.
In a few minutes, rice and “Mapo Tofu with Oysters” are delivered.
“Mapo tofu” in a hot earthenware pot. And the guest was Mr. Oyster. There are no words.
Isn’t it amazing that they put oysters in “Mapo tofu”?
The aroma of fragrant sansyo pepper and hot sauce is irresistible.
I immediately took a big bite and smelled the fresh oysters. Oh, it’s a seafood dish.
This is Cantonese cuisine, so it is not intensely spicy. Even those who do not like spicy food can enjoy it.
I served “Mapo tofu” over rice and chewed it up. Very satisfying.
Completely finished, the final dessert was “apricot jelly”.
This is also delicious. What a high level lunch!
