Tianmu has never been part of my territory (like I have any territory? 8-O lol). Yet, within this past week, I found myself landed numerous times in Tianmu because a friend's family was moving back to San Francisco (and has now). Also, I found myself dinning at this "presidential grade" of restaurant (興蓬萊 Shing Peng Lai Restaurant) featuring Taiwanese cuisine. Great food and huge portion!
It's "presidential grade" because the former president Li Deng Hui likes the food here.
(Please check the clip from 7 minute 52 seconds. The embed youtube clip at a specific time function somehow isn't working. Just realized it.)
What my brother-in-law ordered on June 30th...
Two different dining experiences, four days apart, I got to try out 17 of their dishes while... I do have a way of putting things away and no wonder the ever-expanding waistline... 8-X lol
I love this picture I took.... In the back is the sign stating three of the formal president Li Deng Hui's favorite dishes including the crispy ribs (the pix on the left side) and "Buddha jumping over the wall" (the pix on the right side). Just realized that the gentleman in the picture is the owner 陳進添 of the restaurant. The laoban niang (female owner) 陳春蘭 was on the side of the camera encouraging the doggie to pose for the picture while pointing to me how cute the doggie's teeth are. Based on the info I gathered so far through the youtube clip above, I figure they are sister and brother. Accordingly, laoban niang's family have 6 doggies and 2 cats.
