I can't remember when the last time I ate at a Chinese restaurant was. More than ten years, for sure. I sometimes react pretty strongly to MSG, and that made it sort of like a dice roll or Russian roulette. Too bad, because I do like a lot of Chinese style dishes. I was aware of a place in Woodstock, but have become quite wary. We finally decided to try it after a friend said she was sure they added no MSG to the food there.
It says that right on the menu. Two hours later, I have no reaction, and the food was good too. They have the usual multipage menu with dozens and dozens of dishes in different styles. I happen to love hot and sour soup, which they had and it was nicely balanced. There's a lunch time buffet on weekdays, and a take out menu too. I think we'll be back.
In other news, the fox surfaced again this morning. One of our dogs started barking wildly during breakfast and we looked out the window to see her trotting up the lane toward the woodlot. She is sleek and healthy looking, and her fur is still quite heavy and full. No babies with her, but I'll bet they are stashed somewhere nearby.
Sunny and dry today, with temperatures in the region of 78F. As usual, we seem to have jumped from a cold and rainy spring to instant midsummer. Lilac and honeysuckle are in bloom everywhere, and the buds are appearing on wild cherry and blackberry now.
