Thanks for the update! Iâve been buying from prd & Amboy when I go then sit by their setup.
Need a 3 legged stool for that! My grandfather had one very similar to the attached pic from MĂ©xico that would be perfect for that little table. Easy to transport and go.

Weâve taken it to Los Angeles state historic park up the street and had a great picnic.

Weekend special update:
Didnât do the Pho Ga, but got the Poached Brown Chicken and Banh Khot.
Poached Brown Chicken
I was hoping for a little Hainan Chicken magic, but unfortunately this was hit and miss. The dark meat was tough and hard to chewânot sure if that was the intention because itâs a different kind of chickenâbut it wasnât like the dark meat from the Hainan Chicken. The white meat was better, but still not quite as juicy and tender as the aforementioned Hainan Chicken. Maybe I shouldnât be comparing the two because theyâre different dishes and the chicken was intended to be in the Pho Ga, but thatâs what I was hoping for 
Banh Khot
Now this on the other hand⊠
These mini savory pancakes topped with either shrimp or pork, wrapped up in butter lettuce with herbs, and dunked in nuoc mam were incredibly delicious. Each one is a single bite, so youâve got 10 shots totalâor you just snag multiple orders. Donât miss this.

A few fellow FTCers and I were able to try some upcoming dishes currently being worked on, as focus shifts toward items that had to be put on the back burner because they were meant for consumption immediately and on-site.
Locally Caught Ridgeback Prawns with Ginger Scallion Soy Dipping Sauce
Razor Clams
Lamb Claypot
Chicken and Lap Cheong Claypot Rice
Steamed Kinki
Highlight. Tragic that it had to be shared with three other people. (jk <3 u guys 
)
Buddhaâs Delight (Fresh water chestnuts, snap peas, bean curd skins, mushroom, celtuce, Taishan cauliflower, shallots, and mung bean noodle)
Doufu Fa with Cinnamon Ginger Syrup
I would never have the coughs if my syrup tasted like this. Available this weekend for takeout!
Calamansi Cream Pie from Lasita provided by Laroolou
Special thanks to @attran99 for the pie pick up.

Amazing to see substantive NYT piece on Chinatown. I hope they provide a Chinese version of the article soon. Not doing so will be a huge miss by NYT.

This sounds and looks like a better version of the lamb bing I had at Bing Bar in Vegas.

Did you get a chance to say Hello to Sergio at PRD?
I donât know.
Come early.
I was there at 5pm and when I left 20 minutes later with my food to go there was quite a line.
Hotate Kakiage & Ankimo Monaka
Loved the kakiage, especially the sweetness of the corn. Ankimo was luxurious.
Sabazushi
Not peak season saba, but still good.
I expect tomorrow will be even busier.
