Dolsot House (Korean)

Ever since Ken mentioned their wings last week, Jay has been craving a visit to Dolsot House, 404 Marlton Pike East (Route 70), Sawmill Village, Cherry Hill, NJ 08034 (856-216-0090 or 856-216-0095).

We stopped in for lunch on Christmas Eve, and were not disappointed. Our server, Kan, recognized us from a previous visit.

The pork & chive dumplings were lightly fried and very good (Pork Mandoo).

Of course we had the wings - spicy sauce. So crunchy and delicious!

Ken thoroughly enjoyed the spicy pork hoagie (Bo Tong)!

Jay was quite satisfied with the LA Kalbi Box Lunch. So much food!

We enjoyed the company of a little guy (19 months) at the table next to us. The place was quite crowded - the food is that good!

No wine today.

We were wished a Merry Christmas when we arrived, and when we left. That was nice.

Ginger Asian Cuisine

Nothing cooked in the house and Jay didn't feel like cooking, so Ken treated her to Ginger Asian Cuisine, on Friday, December 11, 2015. Almost felt like "Cheers," as everyone knows us and greeted us warmly. Since we didn't call ahead, no booth, but the table we were seated at worked well.

We wanted to try something different, for a change, so we looked around to see what others were eating.

Jay had a sore throat, so she ordered egg drop soup, which was flavorful and did the job.

Ken ordered the coconut shrimp, six huge shrimp, which came with a honey wasabi sauce. Tasty.

Jay wanted Pad Thai, extra spicy. Perfection.

Ken saw shredded sesame beef, a LARGE plate of sweet and spicy goodness. Breaded, but tender pieces of meat which melted in the mouth.

We love the House Special Fried Rice, instead of white, brown, or regular fried rice...

Refreshing orange slices and fortune cookies at the end of the meal.

We plan to try something new every other visit. Love this place! (Jay's phone died, so Ken took the pictures - not bad!)

The Little Tuna

We met friends, Karin and George, at The Little Tuna, 114 Kings Highway East, Haddonfield, NJ 08033 (856-795-0888), for a nice leisurely lunch. We always have an enjoyable time with these two... It was pretty busy for a lunchtime, which was nice to see.

Kaiyiid, our server, was pleasant and patient. He made the Bananas Fosters Bread Pudding! So talented!

Since we didn't see some of our favorites on the lunch menu, we asked for the dinner menu.

We shared appetizers:

Oysters - Jay and George MUST have these! Blue Points. So good!

Flash fried calamari - 1/2 order

BBQ Bacon Wrapped Jumbo Shrimp

Bleu Steak & Bacon Bites

Karin asked for bread to sop up the clam sauce, and they came out HOT!

Entrees enjoyed:

Karin - Sauteed Little Neck Clams

Jay
Cup of Roasted Lobster bisque with sherry

Spinach Salad with Rosemary and Ginger Sea Scallops on the side

Ken
Jumbo Lump Crab Cake, with mashed potatoes and veggies

George
Honey Jalapeno Sea Scallops with mashed potatoes and veggies. He was impressed with the mashed potatoes which were fresh and tasty. The spiciness of the jalapeños enhanced the dish.

We shared desserts:

Bananas Foster Bread Pudding

Pistachio Crusted Brownie - fudgy goodness!

Everything was delicious and, once again, we spent a wonderful afternoon with friends.

Forgot to get a picture of the Pouilly Fuisse!


Jay and Ken enjoyed the atmosphere of shopping in Haddonfield...
