DIMM SUMMARY

Happy Harbor Dim Sum Success! 

We decided to go try out Happy Harbor based on a friend's recommendation, only to realize that a few of us had already tried this place previously. Oops! However, we had one newbie to the whole dim sum experience. There were no carts going around and instead you order by looking at pictures. We met at 11 am and good thing we did because it got SUPER DUPER busy when we left around 12:30...AND it was raining. Here's some pictures. I can't remember what everything is called, but I'll give it a try....

Shrimp in a wedding dress (Two thumbs up!)

Minced meat enveloped by silken tofu (two thumbs up!)

Not sure what was inside but it was crunchy and had some of the shredded pork stuff in the middle. (One thumb up)
Rolled up rice cake sheets with ribs meat (Two thumbs down)
Shao long bao (soup dumpling). Not the best we've had, but decent job. (Two thumbs up!)



Pan fried flat noodles with bean sprouts and chicken knees. This is probably the strangest things we had. (one thumb up)

  


                
Dim Sum success!        




 
We decided to get some boba afterwards since we were in one of the major boba hubs in So Cal.
Boba milk tea with pudding (two thumbs up!)
How romantic.....
 
Happy Harbor: average of 4 out of 5 stars!
Meow Meow Cafe: we didn't get an average, but we all agreed that was some good boba. Their pudding texture was a bit odd, but boba was great!

Meow!

Who's down with P.H.A.T.?!?

The first meeting of the Eating Club was a total success! We gluttonously grubbed on some Chicago style pizza and probably gained at least 5 pounds each. We ordered 2 large pizzas: the Classic, which was a delicious combo of spinach & mushrooms, and the Owner's Choice, which was great for garlic lovers and stuffed with chicken, mushrooms, and onions.

The consensus? Thumbs up! The eating club gave P.H.A.T. Pizza an average score of 3.5/5. Although some in our club said they have had better pizza, others thought it was among the best. Everyone thought it was delicious though, and definitely worth a try!

Here are some pictures from our 1st adventure
