I brought Ben to Fatty Hi Chinese Restaurant to try their Mala Xiang Guo. Ben was impressed by their menu.

The Mala Xiang Guo is $18.95 and it’s for 2. Rice has to be ordered separately. The Mala Xiang Guo is prefix i.e. you do not get to choose the ingredients like what we had in Beijing. The only thing I did not like was there were too much luncheon meat in it. I would prefer more vegetarian ingredients like wood ear, bean curd stick, cabbage…

Ben also ordered a Braised Suey Choy with garlic, salted egg and thousand year old egg. I ate at least a whole bulb of garlic from this dish. We love it.

After placing our order, the server told us that the restaurant was having a promotion. If your order exceeds $20, you’ll get a free appetizer for free. We picked the Cumin Lamb for the appetizer. We were surprised to see the dish when it arrived as it was a full dish while we only expected a small plate.

We know we will be back again.
