Lunch
Egg roll: mostly dough, but with a moist, creamy corn and cabbage
filling.  Chow mein: good, though greasy.  Some deep-fried
thing with red bean paste inside: hmmmm. I don't know what to think.  Wonton: juicy.  Decent/good.  Served cool.
Lotus: sticky, sweet on outside.  Not really my thing.
Steamed bony chicken balls.
Chawanmushi: okay I suppose.  Served cool.

Congee with sliced pork and veggies: good.
Steamed pork and pumpkin.
Tripe of some sort.  I think it's a large intestine.  It tasted like 
skin.  Served atop a steamer to remain warm.
Stinky tofu and salty tofu.  Eh.  (Sorry, I don't know which is which in 
this picture.)

At last we discovered a vegetable dish (kai lan?) at the buffet.  Served 
at room temperature.
Steamed dumplings filled with pork, a green vegetable, and crisp water 
chestnut.
A sesame-dotted bun with vegetables, and a puffy thing.  Notice 
the logo on the plate: stolen or bought at surplus?
