As I've mentioned before, Pete's family was in town this weekend. Tonight after mass, we were all hungry and decided on Chinese food. The only real option for Chinese food with the Haack family is from Panda Garden, as Pete's brother used to work with the lady, Lucy, who owns the restaurant.
I'm not sure how long it's been since Lucy has seen Pete's brother Don, but it took less than half a second (literally) for her to recognize him. Although we were only getting our food to-go, she ushered us in, sat us down, and offered us some hot tea and water while we waited. Since she has such a positive feeling about Pete's whole family, she threw in some free crab rangoons, and egg drop soup.
Chinese food generally comes in large portions, and the food we ordered was already more than we could eat. Add to that the free soup and crab rangoons, and we had a feast. As with any feast, there is always a mess that results afterward, and tonight was no exception. But boy was it good!
