Food Porn from the Now Closed Macau Street

With all the eating out I do, I definitely get behind on my blogging about my various dining and restaurant experiences. I think that's a problem that most bloggers experience as well. Such is the case with Macau Street in Monterey Park, which is now closed. Briefly, I wouldn't say it was a destination restaurant for me, but I still enjoyed my meal there. Even more so, I liked how my pictures came out. While I may not be sharing a review with you, I hope you enjoy some of the food porn below.

Pepper and Salt Chicken Knees


Tofu Skin with Spinach


Steamed Tilapia


Egg Tart


Red Bean and Taro Tapioca

I miss their egg tarts. :(

Aha. You figured out the Flickr upload. Looks good. Bigger pictures are always better.

I especially like the Chicken knees and the red bean and taro dessert! Always taste great at many restaurants.

WC: Yes, the bigger pictures do look better. Thanks for the help. :) By the way, have you ever tried egg tarts from Natas?

ETE: I wasn't too much into the chicken knees, but that dessert was definitely tasty.

Unfortunately, their quality and presentation "slipped" over time (as with many Chinese restaurants). Kinda sad, actually.

TonyC: Unfortunately, when I ate there, they told us the crabs weren't in season. :(

I always like that rich and thick taro paste :). Really decadent, sweet, and flavorful.
