Talking of fried rice on another thread @small_h said:
I never made it to Uncle Boon’s, but I think Fish Cheeks is pretty solid.
I had me some at home tonight. (Fried rice seemed the best thing to eat while I watched what we’re all watching – The Golden Bachelorette.)
I agree that it’s solid – the rice, not the show – but it wasn’t as crabby as I’d like, and as I remember Uncle Boon’s as being. The crab is tender, however, and the overall balance of flavors is very good. Overall, I have to disagree with @small_h and say it’s better than solid. Excellent, I’d say. I’d say more, but the first-impression rose is being given out and I’m not crazy enough not to watch.
