  If I were visiting, I’d have to sample the Fire & Ice Mongolian Grill.  No-brainer. 

 

If you’ve never tried Mongolian, there’s nothing quite like it, in my opinion.  Oh man, we have pseudo-Mongolian grills available around here, but not authentic.  You gather the ingredients, cooks grill it up special, a server brings a bowl of perfectly steamed rice to your table along with a hot towel and a smile, you take chop-sticks in hand and meditate on perfection. 

 

There was one I frequented in Okinawa with three wood-fired grills.  The atmosphere and smells in that room were so perfect that a kind of sadness came over me when exiting. 

 

& I’m curious if anyone in the vicinity knows if the one at the top of Lyons Avenue in Newhall, California is still in operation?  Don’t remember the name.  At one time it was an excellent Mongolian buffet ~~ about as authentic as I’ve seen this side of the wood-fired grills way out there on that majestic island in the Far East that sometimes I think  was only a dream.  But all the Numero Uno Pizza shops closed out that way … so in all probability the Mongolian’s now a gas station or drug store. 

 

(Mexican, Indian, Mongolian, Japanese or Chinese [simple fare or] cuisine. How could anybody go wrong with these?  At the least, they all serve rice.)   Bet there's a good tapas bar in Boston too, no?
