I am suffering from missing my favorite Mexican restaurants and my favorite Oriental buffet. I love oriental buffets because I like to mix and match. I love sashimi and also love things like egg rolls, Dragon Fingers, stir-fried rice with shrimp and beef, and chicken bits mixed in and Crab Puffs. I love the crab puffs dipped in Mandarin sauce!! if they don't have the sashimi out I just rob the meat off of the sushi. I LOATHE that gummy rice they use on sushi!
Mexican food just loses something when you have to take it home and it cools. It just isn't the same. The only Mexican place that we have in town is a taco sort of place. I'm missing spinach enchiladas with a cream sauce and chunky guacamole on hot chips.
As far as takeout we are doing a lot of Olive Garden. Most of it travels well but I miss their salads. their Noche chicken soup is so good that my wife chased down a copy cat recipe on Pinterest. Her copy is if anything even better because she makes it a little richer and it has more of those little Noche dumplings in it.
