Restaurant Review: Lunar

 This week on pandagrub we are doing our very first restaurant review! This restaurant review is going to be about Lunar, a Korean and Chinese restaurant. Lunar is in Irvine, California. The panda chosen for the restaurant review is Egg.

 The Lunar restaurant is a very clean, modern, and friendly place. (They didn't mind at all that Egg was sitting at the waiter's station.)

Here is Egg waiting to be served. Look at his hungry face............

 Look at Egg trying to catch a ride on the lazy susan. Hang on, Egg!

Here is a close up of the wall painting. The Lunar restaurant's walls are full of these beautiful paintings.

 Egg is now sitting on a silk chair that is fit for royalty. Yay, it's time to eat because the dishes are ready!

 The first dish is called yoo rin ki which is fried,crispy chicken with soy sauce and vegetables. The chicken was a little dry but still very crispy and good.

Egg is enjoying his feast. In front of Egg is sweet and sour pork. The plate is almost empty because everyone thought it was  delicious. The pork was very tender and crispy. We ordered this in both pork and beef.

The next dish is the gai lan, which is Chinese broccoli. This could have used a bit of oyster sauce and bit less corn starch.

Next is the dish that most Koreans in a Chinese restaurant wait for. This is the infamous ja jang mein which is noodles in black bean sauce. This version had a lot of seafood in it. Egg found the squid to be a little chewy.  Can you see the kim chee in the lower left hand corner?  That's how you know this is a Korean-Chinese restaurant!

This is a picture of part of my family and of course the newest member of this family - Egg! Egg said that he hopes to return to Lunar someday. For the full information about Lunar click here.

Egg is tired from a great meal and a full stomach ........ Time to go to bed.
