Ting's brother
just bought a new dining room set and so he invited us over for dinner to
try it out. Even though he had moved down to San Jose from San Francisco
in September, we had not been to his "new" place. Siu-Fai is a bachelor and,
either out of necessity or boredom, has learned to be a great cook! His
only weakness is garlic bread. For whatever reason, he always burns them
to a crisp, sometimes setting off the smoke alarm. Even though we
are conscientious about keeping an eye on it, it would unfailingly
burn. For dinner, he made pasta with a delicious creamy chicken sauce, which
offsets the very smoky-flavored garlic bread.
This was the first time we met his housemate, Jimmy. Jimmy is from Texas
and is a writer for Knight Ridder. At 6'6" tall,, it seems that he should
be cocky, but Jimmy is as down-to-earth as they come with a funky sense of
humor (but no Texas accent).
