Funny story - we asked chef why the Char Siew is sliced so thinly, as we'd rather it slightly thicker for greater meatiness. He explained he has tried it before, but the elderly folks gave him feedback that it was difficult to chew. Ha! Really sounds like something my grandpa would say ("咬不动"), & with the surrounding neighbourhood having a strong elderly representation I'm not too surprised.

So yes, this Char Siew is sliced a little thinner than I'd like, but it IS easy to chew. As someone who has had many a tough Char Siew in her life, I appreciate this.

Thanks Amanda for the invite & Jon for the hospitality! 💕
