Yum. Mooncakes are the best. I agree with @penn00, definitely go with the plain lotus seed one for your first try; and don't eat the salted egg yolk on your first try. As much as they add flavors and different nuts to the mooncake, the best is the plain lotus seed. Mmm...delish...looking forward to the harvest moon!

Have you tried Restaurant Eve in Alexandria? Their food is delicious. They have a tasting menu for a pre-fixed price or you can order entrees....

That happened with our rice milk, but we were 'suggested' to try and compare the difference between the two items. Basically, the packaging changed, but not the content! Hopefully, that is true for your flour, but they won't tell you that so frankly!

There is a Whole Foods that backs up into a paved trail that I run. During my early morning runs, there is alway some kind of bakery aroma wafting through - it could be pumpkin pie or chocolate chip cookies. It's the best part of the run.

I love my veggies....corn, peas, taters, brussel sprouts, carrots, onions, asparagus, radishes, broccoli, snap peas, cabbage, everything, though I'm not a huge fan of celery!

I tend to eat them mostly at dinner, but I do bring baby carrots to work.

Yum, I love Spam. I ate it when I grew up and still occasionally have a craving and satisfy it with fried Spam with eggs over rice. Or cut up fried Spam with rice and soy sauce. I only eat Spam raw when I am cutting it up to be fried. Makes me want some now.

Although I am Chinese myself, I have no clue what to order at restaurants. (my parents always ordered food off the menu) When I went to Phildalephia and went to a Chinese restuarant for dinner, I called my mom and gave the phone to the waiter. The waiter took the order from my mom and then told me what she had ordered. The dinner ended up being so delicious. Thank goodness for moms!

Love 2 Amys. Can't say enough about them. I've never made it early enough on the weekends for their donuts though!

What abour Restaurant Eve? I think that's a great restaurant worth the splurge!

I'll have to try the other best places that were listed though.

garlic fries are good. And so are Cheasapeake flavored Rte 11 chips. Yum!

Fracchia Voulet Casourzo 2007, I just love sweet wine...this is a sparking, yummy, red Italian. I also recently tried a Sarracco Moscato d'Asti that was a delicious sparly white Italian. Yum!

Me too @ mio. I have no idea what's in it, but it sure is tasty! Ahh...I miss Mom's 'sugar water'.

poppy seed bagels are my favorite....could it really be because of my Chinese dna?
