I dun know what it is about today.. but I’m ready to start the weekend (aren’t you?) Well, in order to keep to the lazy theme (i.e. I am feeling a lil lazy), let’s do this quick and simple, m’kay:

• Lunchie-Munchies BYE-BYE: BRAISED COCONUT PORK, Coconut Rice and SK Chopped Side Salad
• We are CLOSING tonight (i.e. NOT OPEN), and thanks for all the FB’ers who helped us with this decision… no seriously, there’s a thread right HERE!
• ummm… we AIN’T open LABOR DAY either.. I mean, why would we want to Labor on… LABOR DAY!!
• hmmm… what else? Oh yeah, while today is the LAST lunch day to get you some BRAISED COCONUT PORK, you can also try out recipe we actually released this week HERE! ^_^

If you’re still here (on the blog), you must be bored and just waiting for Labor Day weekend to start (when will the Laborious Laboring Labor EEEEEND?!?!?) And if you ARE bored, I’m quite sure you’re wondering, “What do game nerds who have free time and above part editing and camera skills do with themselves?” (I know, cause i think that ALL the time… and this was the best video I could find without exerting too much finger typing energy on that-there internetS)

Well, here ya go.. and what this has to do with our food, again.. I have NO idea! ^_^

And if you want something… ANYTHING relevant to our food, here’s the KN giving her THUMBS UP to the DOUBLE-FRIED SWEET GINGER GLAZED CHICKEN WINGS (assuming you’ve actually read this far too… and sham-WOW if you did!)

Toodles,

Happy Post-4th O’ July ya’ll! WOO HOO

So now that we got all those hot dog, hamburger, BEER and fireworks shenanigans outta the way (and let’s be frank.. those “shenanigans” never really “go away” they just go on a short hiatus LOL), it’s back to the grind.. for all of us!

Speaking of coming back, we’ve decided to rotate in another fan favorite today. This one I actually had someone tell me, and I quote, “It speaks to my soul!” WOW That was such a profound statement that we were like WTH, let’s do it (and it was also time too):

HI-HI:

• “NOM NOM” PORK (aka Vietnamese Nem Nuong)

When we first introduced this dish a couple of months ago, this kinda settled it for us on something: you guys LOVE pork! I mean, Chicken may be the meat of preference in the Greater Los Angeles area, but you guys DEVOUR pork.. and this one was no exception especially since it’s covered in a meat sauce too! :)

While not big news, we’re also welcoming back plain and simple:

• SK Chopped Side Salad

It was bound to happen, and it’s back now. So for those of you that want a lil “salad” on the side for your meal… here it is again. It’s a mini-version of the SK CHOPPED SALAD w/ the lime vinaigrette dressing

BYE-BYE:

Let’s start with the obvious once (since you can actually see it on the menu)

• BRAISED VN BEEF

Looks like this new dish was welcome w/ open arms too… well be prepared to let go as we rip this from your loving arms and take it away (I know, that’s cruel, but that imagery works, right? ^_^).  You have one more week before it leaves the lunch menu!

And let’s not forget the fan favorite people want to act like they don’t wanna love, but they love it more than they would like to admit

• SPAM FRIED RICE

So you like it, and that’s… ALRIGHT! We do too.  And after this week… *POOF* it’s gone.. or maybe it’s *POOF* you ate it all before you know it… either way, one more week!

JAPANESE GARLIC NOODLES??

So if you’ve actually read this far, you’re obviously INCREDIBLY bored and don’t want to go back to work (I dun blame ya ^_^), I just wanted to take a quick moment to make a quick statement:

“If you don’t LOVE garlic, do NOT get the JAPANESE GARLIC NOODLES!”

Got a recent comment that it tasted like there was a strong garlic flavor (pssst- there’s only granulated garlic AND garlic infused oil… not even any garlic cloves in it!!!), and guess what.. that’s RIGHT! We LOOOOOOOVE garlic, and that’s not a bad thing at all. ^_^

That’s it, I just wanted to point that out just as a matter of fact. :)

Okay, gotta get ready to head “into the office!” Til then, enjoy this KFC musical commercial (man, I needs to make me one of these soon… no REALLY! ^_^):

Xoxo,

Hello.. HELLO!

Time’s awastin’, so no time like the present to just jump into the rotating (i.e. I gots actual restaurant stuff to DO’S and have no time for my seemingly witty banter today ^_^).

Let’s start with what’s going away because it’s gonna a sad one and a near mass-exodus too!!!

BYE-BYE:

• BRAISED COCONUT PORK
• Coconut Rice
• SK Chopped Side Salad

Of these these, I’m definitely going to miss the first AND second (because together they are a flavor SUPER-POWER!) the most.  Damn, and I waited 6 months for that dish to come back, and now you know… even I am subject to the emotional rollercoaster that is SK too! LOL

HI-HI:

• BRAISED COCONUT JACKFRUIT

The vegan cousin of my favorite dish, and a unique one because… it don’t taste ANYTHING like fruit too. AMAZING!

Until then, watch this video (that ain’t for kiddies ya’ll… unless your kiddies talk like sailor’s all.. day.. LONG) that one of our friends thought was appropriate for us (i.e. ME) because of ummm… my love for the use of the F*Bomb (but I only use it to convey passion, m’kay!)  Enjoy this, it’s pretty funny.. if you like expletives that is LOL:

Xoxo,

TEAM SK
