Perfect Diner

 

Today, Wednesday August 19th I went for the first time to an Asian Cafe named Perfect Diner. I went there with my friend Bruce, and we both had the same thing, which was the Combo Hot Chili Pot. The cost was $16.95 and it was so large a serving that we should have split it half and half.

This dish was very spicy, however we are both fans a spicy foods, and it was overwhelmingly so. The dish consists of several items such as octopus, squid, hot dogs, chopped up sausage links, and slices of beef. It also contains several vegetables such as potato, cauliflower, lion’s mane mushrooms, what appeared to be wood ear mushrooms, and an unknown mushroom, plus carrots and jalapeno peppers, and I think a small amount of bell pepper. It also is cooked with a small amount of Asian chili oil. Because of the time of the day between three and four P.M. Bruce and I were the only customers there so we got seated instantly, and we’re attended to quite frequently. On a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the highest, I would probably give the entire experience between a 4 1/2 and a 5 on such a scale and I will go back in the future to try more of their dishes.
