Ginger Asian Cuisines (Still a Favorite!)

After a productive day working at the library (some time in October, although not posted until November 9!), Jay didn't feel like cooking, so she suggested Ginger Asian Cuisines. Ken readily agreed. We made reservations for 6:30 pm, since we wanted a booth. Great idea! It was packed!

A beautiful rainbow greeted us as we left the house...

It's always nice to see the people at Ginger's - they are truly happy to see you again!

We love the fried noodles with hot mustard sauce and duck sauce...

Soup came with Jay's meal. She meant to order the Hot & Sour, but requested Egg Drop by mistake. It was tasty!

Appetizers enjoyed:

BBQ ribs - these are the BEST!

Vietnamese beef grape leaves. Ken's favorite!

Entrees:

Not on the menu, but Ken (and two other diners) requested the Salt and Pepper Shrimp. He devoured it!

Jay enjoyed the Stinking Shrimps  (garlic) - sleeping in the guest bedroom tonight, but it was worth it! LOL

We meant to order the House Special Fried Rice, but were given just plain fried rice instead. It was still good.

Oranges to enjoy while paying your bill:

Nancy recommended a few other dishes to try (both must be ordered a day in advance):
Chinese Fried Chicken - whole chicken, fried, and sliced with bones (sounded awesome!)
Pork Chop with lemongrass - can't wait to try!

Black Olive (Greek)

Although Jay wasn't feeling well (cold? flu?), she and Ken met Karin and George at Black Olive Greek Cuisine, 910 Haddonfield-Berline Road, Voorhees, NJ, 08043, for our monthly lunch, on Saturday, November 8, 2014. Everything was delicious!

Our server, Victoria (who waited on us last time), was very accommodating and knowledgeable. We'll ask for her again!

Jay enjoyed the Avgolemono Soup (chicken broth with eggs, lemon and rice).

We all shared everything else:

Saganaki (pan fried Kefalograviera cheese) - salty fried goodness...

Shrimp Tourkolimano (jumbo shrimp sauteed in white wine with fresh tomatoes, garlic, feta cheese and Kalamata olives and a touch of ouzo), with potatoes and spinach:

It came with a house salad, which was very fresh:

Fried Calamari. Perfectly breaded and seasoned:

Pork Souvlaki platter:

Baklava for dessert:

Wines enjoyed:

We'll be back. More dishes to try!
