After a matinée at Theater Works we set off for our usual 'let's get something to eat after the play' encounter. We chose Uncle Chow [originally Mr. Chow] in West Hartford. This was a great choice. The restaurant is modern Chinese with good seating, great artwork and especially an intriguing menu. We split and appetizer of Peking Duck buns [3 to an order perfect for the 3 of us] and they certainly exceeded my expectations. I did get a bit heavy on the Hoisin sauce [see photo] but it was a delicious bite or two. The menu is extensive but I found the Twice Cooked Pork to be a different choice from the sometimes tired menus of other Chinese establishments. I went with the spicy version and it was just perfectly prepared. The white rice is the kind that I love with that bit of stickiness that proves its real. Will definitely go back.
