Oh…….The Boat. This restaurant definitely holds shit load of history for me. Been going here since senior year of high school and all through out my college years. This is probably THE place where I base all my Thai restaurants from. So what’s so special about this place?

Haha another day and another Hong Kong style cafe.  This time we went to Maxim in Rowland Heights.  Straight translation, Maxim means “beautiful heart”.  Since I was not craving for anything specific I went for my usual baked ox-tongue over rice. The baked ox-tongue over rice is a very common dish in HK style cafes but not all cafes have it. I didn’t remember if Maxim had it or not but apparently not because I went through the menu three or four times and I didn’t see it on the menu. So I settled for the next best thing, baked pork chop over rice. Certain cafes let you add a fried egg on top too!

Craving for food is such a weird feeling especially when there was nothing to trigger it. A sudden crave for McD’s chicken nuggets will only be satisfied by McD’s chicken nuggets. So on Day 3 of my LA trip, I woke up to find myself craving for curry beef stew, specifically curry beef brisket from Hong Kong style cafes that I love. Good thing my parents are cool with whatever and wherever I wanted to eat. My mom have always praised about the curry beef brisket at Boston Cafe in what used to be the Hong Kong Supermarket plaza.
