.fOOrD BLOrG. Sampan style crab

This is one of our favorite dining experiences! Two weeks ago we made our first voyage to Ocean City on SE 82nd between Powell and Division. Previously we had been to Om Seafood and thought it was the real deal Chinese food. Don't get me wrong, Om is good but Ocean City won us over with this one dish. It is a whole crab broken into pieces and fried. Then the top it with all kinds of fried bits like black beans, green onion, peppers, and ginger. It IS awesome! It is like going to a fair on the beach in your mouth....well that sounds weird but I think you get the idea. The only thing is that the price is based on the market and the weight of the crab so be prepared to 'shell' out some cash for deliciousness.

.FOOrD BLOrG. sweeeeets Part 2

Morinaga Nobi Nobi Hi-chew -Cola flavor

So it is no secret that I love CANDY!!! This treat also comes from Japan. The 'normal' version of this treat is in small pieces and the appeal is that they look like gum but you can swallow it. This one is a rope form that you can play with! Which I didn't really care about. I just wanted to eat it! Nom nom nom..... and I did

1-It did taste like cola.

2- Nothing about it was gum like.

3- It was gritty.

Yeah, not all bad but far from amazing. When you get something from around the world there are hits and there are misses and sometimes there are 'eh s'. This was a deff. eh. Not much flavor and really nothing to remember. But that is ok because I have a special product that I have been saving for today to hopefully share with a pal. Expect that review next!
