went out with simon and Joyce again for dinner last night. Maybe the best meal yet! It was a Sichuan restaurant so some of the dishes were quite spicy. They ordered so many different things that I cannot remember them all, but there was a frog stew with something like okra, a fish stew, wonton in broth, several vegetable dishes, a fried pork-belly dish, a noodle dish, rice, crispy scallion pancakes, and several others as well as two delicious desserts. One was made from lotus root stuffed with rice and cooked in a sugar syrup and the other was a rice-wine soup with rice and rice balls in it. It turns out that Simon & Joyce are true foodies as well as being great hosts. They can remember and describe dishes they ate long ago at various restaurants. They've already created a 'must try' menu for us for our trip to Hangzhou today... We are very lucky!
