28th February 2026: Nan Xiang Express, Shrewsbury

 Today we decided to check out the new Chinese restaurant in Shrewsbury, Nan Xiang Express.

We got the Pan Fried Pork Buns (4 pc),

the Wontons in Spicy Peanut Sauce,

the Pork Soup Dumplings

and the Shredded Beef and Pepper Noodles (without soup).

Really delicious, best dumplings ever, despite the long wait, and still warm too.

February 22nd 2026: Dimsum in Quincy, Cake in Braintree

 Today, we started out with some Dimsum at Ming's Seafood in Quincy,

this time getting the Steamed Rice Rolls with Shrimp,

the Steamed Salty Egg Yolk Lava Buns,

the Crispy Pear Sticky Rice Dumplings,

the Singapore Rice Noodles (curry), Steamed Surf Clams with Minced Garlic and Vermicelli

and the Bean Curd Pudding with Boba.

The rice dumplings were interesting and tasty, while the noodles were a tad spicy, but the clams were not bad in taste. Otherwise, pretty gimmicky overall, and I have to say the standard seems to have gone down over the years.

Dessert was a Lemon Raspberry Cake (Gold cake with lemon and raspberry mousse filling) from Konditor Meister in Braintree.

At least we got something decent out of a long drive out.

February 7th 2026: Pizza and Sandwiches in Worcester

 Today, after checking out the Elite Academy of Dance in Shrewsbury,

we decide to order lunch from the D'Angelo Grilled Sandwiches/Papa Gino's location in Worcester, this time getting the Super Veggie (broccoli, mushrooms, Peppers, onions, Tomatoes, Olives, Pizza sauce and our signature 3 Cheese Blend)

and the Steak BBQ and Cheddar (Steak, BBQ sauce, Bacon, Mayo, Cheddar Cheese).

Really liked the flavor of the sandwich this time around.
