Could be worse... You could go to Jumbo and miss with the Chinese food too.

LOL yes. It's arm steak, KK. Which means TOUGH, unless cooked low, moist, and slow. Think a thin pot roast, LOL.

roflmao!! indeed soooo true...

But...

I will say this: the food may be ludicrously overpriced and pisspoor for HK, but man, is it ever a great date place, especially for non-HK people.

Wow! You get some US girl over to HK for a vacation, and take here there?!? That's like picking up a girl in a bar and driving her home in your Lotus!

I like to sit there, eat dim sum and read the chapter in "Noble House" about the fire... I don't care about the food...

LOL! You probably wouldn't know the difference if you didn't know what it was before I cooked it. Which is the general idea. My aunt used to make something similar when I was a kid, and we all loved it. It's a good way to use cheaper (and tougher) cuts of meat.

Why thank you Although I'm not sure a dog's taste buds would appreciate the marinade part, LOL.

One of the things I plan to pick up when I'm in the States next month is a 'Slow Cooker.' I've been drooling, dreaming of BBQ'd pulled pork. I don't eat much beef any more, but some cuts that wouldn't cost a fortune here could be done nicely if cooked slowly.

Beef shoulder meat does need some slow lovin' care to cook it. KK, 'Arm Steak' is just a thin cut from the same area as a shoulder roast, and requires the same kind of treatment.

And it was WONDERFUL!! Probably mostly due to the marinade. I put it in a shallow baking dish and baked it at 350 for an hour and it was great! The sauce was great over fries, too, LOL.
Stitchawl, where in the States will you be? Not Illinois, I'm sure, unfortunately... LOL.

No, but I did live in Belleville, just across the river from St. Louis for a while. I'll be going to Vermont for my son's wedding. Damn kid won't listen to his betters when we tell him to wait until he's 55 to marry... Or better still, if he is going to marry at 35, at least get married in Bali so we can enjoy the wedding!
