Our First Member Dinner Appointment

The Brian Lee family and the Kim Jung Won family invited us over for dinner Sunday night. It was a feast! They started with an appetizer of Mah or fried yams. It was a white yam, slightly crispy with a tempura batter. Served with Japanese Plum drink. Then we were served grilled pork with rice, bean and chile paste wrapped in lettuce leaves or big catnip leaves, kimchee, and soup with bokchoy and beef. Dessert was fresh pineapple, clementines, and dried persimmon. Char mo koh sim nee dah! I ate well.
