Hello! And welcome to the 16th post of Pizza Rat's Paradise.
Picture taken at Joy Palace in Cupertino, CA (which now appears permanently closed -- although, who knows? Perhaps it could make a comeback, open a different restaurant somewhere else, or a similar kind of restaurant could pop-up elsewhere.)
This brunch was a gathering of a bunch of college friends I used to dine with frequently. It's kind of amazing how we were able to keep in touch with each other even as alumni. I guess that just spoke to the strength of our connections.
Anyway, this may have been my first time trying restaurant-prepared stinky tofu. The other dishes, such as stir-fried eggplant, xiao long bao, and what looks to be sanbeiji (3-cup chicken).
I sincerely miss dishes like this. One day, I may come find you again.
God bless. Kisses. XOXO.
If you have made it this far, thank you for reading! 💚
