Fook Yuen


My brother and his wife treated us to lunch at Fook Yuen to celebrate my mom's 85th birthday. 

We had Fish Maw with Crabmeat Soup.

Yum!!! Delicious looking, wonderful colors!

Everytime I hear or see the name of the restaurant, "Fook Yuen", it reminds me of John Heckathorn's review of the place when he used to be the foodie guy with Honolulu Magazine. It was a favorable review but at the end, he said something to the effect that he is glad they aren't having a "Fook Yuen 2".

j: not that I can eat it but is it hard eating the crab and lobster in the shell or does it slip out easily? -N

Mark, I agree!! LOL!

Aww, thanks Kat.

Chet, me too . . . can't remember the last time I was there.

Susan, see . . . that's why I forgot to take more photos.

Izsmom, thanks!

LOL, Les.

Thanks Annie!

Hahahahaha, Aunty!

N, the meat of the lobster pretty much slipped out easily, but the crab meat was harder to get to. But my sister Sweetie was having a grand ole time using all 10 fingers, cracking away, digging into the shell and just loving every bit of morsel she could get. In the end the small finger bowl that was provided to wash your fingers wasn't enough for her, and she had to go to the restroom to rinse off. LOL.
