Mushroom Day at Yummy Seafood Chinese Restaurant, Beverly Hills Sydney

Helloo my lovelies haha

Mushroom mushroom

I know I have not been around.... GOMENN ORZ ; but to make up for my lack of posts I have some yummy mushroom photos to share, from a Mushroom Day at YUMMY Seafood Chinese Restaurant in Beverly Hills !

It's funny, but even though we eat chinese (ie. rice + dishes) for dinner every night, when we go out for family dinners we almost always pick chinese too.

Mushroom Day was no exception :D

Where the food is yummy

Cashew, Button Mushrooms, Fried Tofu Stirfry!Our first dish was Fried Vegies with Assorted Nuts ($19.80)
I'm not sure where the 'assorted nuts' were coz we could only find cashews, but I'm not complaining :]


Everything was diced up into colourful, bite-sized pieces that were mm crunchy sweet and soft by alternative bites, but DAMN they were so frustrating to eat with chopsticks! especially since I was hungry enough to eat the waitress, after waiting in the peak hour queue

I persevered with picking them up individually for about five minutes (cashew-tofupuff-mushroom-another cashew) but eventually one must give up and ask for a spoon


Black bean beef, mushrooms and caramelised onionsOrder the black pepper beef dish ($19.80) and you will be pleasantly surprised to find out it has mushrooms in it!

It was delivered to our table sizzling sizzling hot with a generous heap of caramelised onions dumped on top so we were all very pleased with it. Mmmm onions go so well with everything


Mixed Mushrooms - Oyster, Shiitake, Bok ChoyStewed Vegetables with Mixed Mushrooms for $23.80

Mixed mushrooms Hot Pot! - Large Brown Flat, Enoki, Oyster, Crispy Tofu Puffs and Bok Choy!This was the king of our mushroom dishes - the Mixed Mushroom Bean Curd Hot Pot! for $21.80. Eye spy lots of mushrooms :D how many can you count?

1. large brown cap mushroom (the piece that looks like sea cucumber)
2. oyster mushrooms
3. long white enokis (so good)
4. round white buttons

Four? FOUR MUSHROOMS! Ah, ah ah ah! (hahaha)

Sitting on top are once-crispy, now-juicy tofu puffs, and underneath lurk plump bok choys that drip with soy-flavoured sauce when you pull them out with your chopsticks

Mm watermelon slices and orangeThe complimentary asian fresh seasonal fruit platter!
It was as yummy as it looks :]

Plus bowls of white rice all round came to $14, or $2.80 per person

AND AHEM ahem
The blue chinese characters read: Hai Xian (Seafood) Jiu Jia (Wine House)
Where 'wine house' means something along the lines of 'large, posh restaurant'

I don't know what the two big red characters on the left are
but I guess they mean 'yummy' :D
