Speaking of stringray, one of the restaurants that I wanted to being Moonbie to when she was here in Chicago last time was a Malaysia restaurant called Penang (it's a chain and they have several restaurants all over the US, including 3 or 4 in NYC). My most favorite dish there is this grilled fish dish in which you can choose the type of fish, and one of the option is sting ray, which I always get. They have a large piece of sting ray covered with a paste filled with Malaysian spices, and then it is wrapped in banana leave and grilled. It is amazing!

YUM! I'll take two!

Not yet. I'm waiting for MIH to start selling it.

MB, when I got up it looked like it had snowed on the cars and garbage cans outside. It was ash from the fires!
Snow sounds so nice. It was 90 degrees F here yesterday.

Yes, I definitely prefer snowstorms over firestorms. :bugeye:

We've upgraded from flurry to full snowstorm now. But, it's still too warm for it to stick. I don't mind watching snow fall if there isn't any to shovel off the driveway. :approve:

Alas, we didn't have time to go that time, so that will have to be one of the first place we will have to go when she comes back.

Ooh, or I'll have to find one of the ones in NYC since I get there more often. Since I don't get to Chicago very often, I need to prioritize the restaurants that I can't find in other cities. I still never got to try Chicago pizza casserole...:rolleyes:...I mean deep dish pizza. :biggrin: Or, I can always get different dishes when in NYC than in Chicago.

I'm surprised they don't already sell one.

The one in NYC that I've been to is on Elizabeth street in Chinatown in lower Manhattan. However, unless you know what you're ordering, the menu will be quite overwhelming, and you may end up ordering standard chinese dishes rather than malaysian dishes. So you'll need me no matter what! :) :) :)

Or at least a really low-tech form for scrambled eggs. I used to use a tuna can with both ends cut out as a form to make round-shaped scrambled eggs that fit nicely with my Canadian bacon on toasted English muffins. There are probably already metal Mickey-shaped cookie cutters on the market that could do the same job - just put it in a preheated greased skillet and dump in the scrambled eggs.

Okay, okay, I won't deprive you of an excuse to go to that restaurant next time I visit. :biggrin:
