CELEBRATE
My mom generously treated Karena's mom, Karena and me to lunch at Beverly Hills' Mr. Chow restaurant to celebrate our 2nd anniversary (it was yesterday).
I had to admit that I was a little worried at the prospects of getting Americanized, overpriced Chinese food that we could have gotten for a fraction of the cost in Monterey Park. But the food turned out to be very good.
I realized how uncultured I am because I felt so out of place in the restaurant. And I felt awkward doing the trendy thing in handing the waiter the menus and saying, "Just bring out what you thin is best." Actually, I was so nervous about it, Karena ordered for us. The food was quite tasty (except for the fish fillet dish, which was smothered in a rice wine sauce) and the price was decent (for Beverly Hills).
But even though we all had a great time, I'll stick to my inexpensive places in Chinatown and Monterey Park!

Wow...2 years already? And you're already acting like an old married couple :P
Well, praise God for that, and also for good tasting, overpriced Chinese-American food. My parents and Tammy won't let me go to P.F. Chang's, even though they're family!
