The first restaurant
I want to recommend is Hong Fu Chinese Cuisine, which is located at 239 Route
27, Highland Park, NJ 08904.
Hong Fu Chinese Cuisine is famous for
Shanghai Cuisine, which is characterized by thick oil, soy sauce and sugar.
Like other Restaurant,
Hong Fu Chinese Cuisine also has two different menus, for Chinese customs and
Americans.
"Of course it is
different,” the owner of Hong Fu Chinese Cuisine said, “because not every
Americans can accept real Chinese food.”
However, if you
are REAL Chinese food fan, you could always tell the waitress that you want to
try something different from American Chinese food. Then, she will recommend
some special dishes to you.
English&Chinese Menu
“Most American
customs will like Crispy Beef with Orange Flavor and Jumbo Prawn with Spicy
Pepper Salt. Their favorite vegetable is Pea Shoots, and most of them don’t
like Vegetable Sponge.” The waitress of Hongfu Chinese Cuisine said.
Food Recommend:
Pork Steamed
Juicy Bun—one of my favorite dish. It is a ball-shaped dumpling with a
whorl-like pattern on the top. It is filled with pork and soup. When you eat
it, you first lift it up carefully dipping it into the vinegar; then, you put
it in a spoon and take a little bite of the skin. Drink the soup in side from
the small hole first then eat rest of the dumpling. You must be CAREFUL when
you life it, because the skin is really thin and easy to break.
Dongpo Braised Pork—this
dish is named after reversed Song Dynasty poet Su Dongpo, who invented or at
least inspired it. It is made from a piece pork belly, so there are half fat
and half meat. However, due to the way of cooking, the fat will not taste very
greasy。
Every weekend,
Hong Fu Chinese Cuisine will serve special Chinese snack, such as Youtiao
(deep-fried twisted dough sticks, common Chinese breakfast), Toufu nao (jellied
bean curd, soft tofu with sauce on it) and so on.

Awww,Dongpo Braised Pork, I miss it so much!!! The restaurant does sound pretty attractive. I will definitely try there before I leave for college!
ReplyDeleteBTW,do they have delivery service?
Yes, they do have delivery service, if you want to call them, there is the phone number 732-247-8813; 732-246-8573. There is a trick: if you order juicy Bun in restaurant, they will give you 6 buns; but if you order by delivery service, they will give you 8 buns:)
DeleteI haven't had a good youtiao in such a long time! I have to stop by here sometime. It's right around the corner and i never knew about it!
ReplyDeleteThey have really good Youtiao with soy-bean milk (Doujiang). It is a really good combination! Just remember, they only serve this snack on weekends.
DeleteI've never heard of a dumpling that has soup inside! I guess that's what I get for only eating American Chinese food.
ReplyDeletehaha~well, American Chinese food is good for American, since it changed in order to fit their flavor. But maybe you could try something different, juicy dumpling will be a good start!
DeleteI love the Tofu Nao, with sugar. It's my favorite food when I was young. I haven't had it for a few years. I wish we could make it at home.
ReplyDeleteI can never understand Tofu with sugar...you are just so wierd... I think the salty one is much better... even you don't like xiangcai, you should just try it !!!
DeleteHahahah it's quite interesting that the restuarant serves Daofu Nao and Yaotiao but they don't open till 11 am! Aren't those two foods suppose to be breakfast? maybe? Also that's an interesting way to have Dongpo Pork, great idea and I can almost imagine havin it
ReplyDeleteYou know.. people don't always get up early on weekend. It is weekend! Diana and I sometime wake up at 10:30 and have breakfast:)! The Dongpo Pork is really good. Like I always said, you should come and join us:)
