Celebrating the 2,000 Mile Drive at Hong Kong Palace

We drove home over two days from Florida. While the husband preferred driving back in one shot on one day, 16 hours in the car with my parents along with us was more than they or I could bear. We stopped off in Fayetteville, North Carolina for the night. The next day, we finished the last few hours drive home, and handed my parents off to my brother, for their holiday visit with him. After washing a couple loads of laundry and settling back in at home, we headed out to buy groceries and enjoy some spicy Sichuan dishes at Hong Kong Palace in Seven Corners.

 Beef and Vegetables in Spicy Sauce
 Pork Wontons in spicy sauce
 Fried Rice with fried egg, shrimp and bacon.
 Mapo Tofu with leeks
Shanghai Tips with Shiitake Mushrooms

We ordered a lot of our favorite Sichuan dishes, and packed up the leftovers for lunch the next day.With the 30 degree temperature change from Florida to Virginia, it was good to have something hot and fiery to eat to ward off the head cold and swollen glands I feel coming on.
