We haven’t had spicy Chinese food for a while, and we were craving it bad. Seriously, those Szechuan pepper must have some kind of addictive ingredient in it or something. We went back to the best Szechuan restaurant in OC, Chong Qing Mei Wei Szechwan Restaurant.

風味冷菜 Cold Appetizer ($5.50)
It was raining outside, and the restaurant was full with a few people waiting. They quickly put us at a 6 people table. We also saw a couple sitting at one of those big 10 people table. I like how they didn’t make us wait for a smaller table. Dr. P went to the cold appetizer counter and picked 3 items. Those are our favorite 3, spicy beef & tendon, green veggie, and kidney & onion.

I was too lazy to cook dinner, so Dr. P got take out food for dinner. I was even too lazy to think about what I wanted, and just asked Dr. P to get anything he wanted. He decided to try some middle eastern food from House of Kabob. That reminded us how we use to have Sunnin take out all the time back in Dr. P’s old apartment in West LA.

Kabob Barg ($16.99)
Charbroiled of filet mignon marinated in our special sauce.
The boxes felt really heavy. We opened the box and saw the reason. Man, they gave you a lot of rice here. Kabob Barg was made with filet mignon, and it was very tender. It had a nice grilled + middle eastern spices flavor. Love the grilled tomatoes.

It was a casual weekday. I turned on my computer in the morning, and saw some Shabu Shabu Bar’s pictures on wintervalley’s Facebook page. I thought “hmmmm look good.” Then I checked my Plurk, and saw more pictures posted by wintervalley. I thought “hmmmm I kinda want shabu shabu now.” After that I saw wintervalley’s blog post, then I thought “I GOTTA HAVE SHABU SHABU TONIGHT!”

After Dr. P got off work, we followed his navigation lady’s commands, and drove around the streets near Shabu Shabu Bar in circles for 30 minutes before finally finding the restaurant. That lady is going crazy and almost drove me crazy!
