Countdown to Beantown, Part 4a: Squeezing in some last goodbyes
It's clear I have a lot of catching up to do with a three-week disappearing act. I'll start with my final couple of days living in New York.Not knowing what the Chinatown situation is like in Boston, one of my last dinners in New York was with Songhai and Hang, two friends who moved to New York a little bit before I did two years ago. Songhai was starting his lab (temporarily on our floor, and then upstairs in the same building) and Hang was doing a postdoc at Rockefeller. Both of them learned about my adventurous eating spirit after we went to Grand Sichuan a while back and I ate everything they ordered (including a baby luffa). So two nights before I left we went back to the Grand Sichuan. As has been customary since my days of eating out with Yihong, I left the ordering to the pros. Eat now, ask later...
The highlights of the evening were:
Sliced Lotus Root
Husband and Wife Lung
Salivating Chicken




谢谢你 Hang and Songhai!!!

How can one countdown to beantown when one is already IN beantown? :-) nice to read your update and the food pics look yummy. I dont think Uli has had a chance to try Sichuan food yet believe it or not, so Im now motivated to try out this place with him. You are missed in NY!
