Tastea Grill revisited

Went here recently with TC...Tastea Grill. It's on East Palomar Street right across from Heritage Park.

Haven't been in in awhile...

See my previous posts on September 2009 and November 2009 for my previous takes on this place...

Waiting for my food...The Korean owner and chef was working the counter today. Normally it's his wife or his daughter but they were out. It was just a teenage worker and the chef, who is super nice by the way.

I ordered the Hot Basil Beef plate - comes with a scoop of rice and a side of island style mac salad. The beef had chili s int as well as onions and green peppers. I didn't see any basil, like last time. I ended up taking half of it home...The meat was the same cut you would get if you ordered Korean beef bulgogi - cut really thin. Some pieces were kind of too fatty though.

The Hot Non Basil Beef did "something" the next morning...

This was TC's Teriyaki Beef plate with rice and mac salad. This was the small size version, not the kid's plate. The kid's plate comes with fries which I try to avoid.

I ordered something to go for Bert. We normally don't go out to eat on weekdays since I usually cook enough to last the whole week, but I was frazzled that particular day and didn't feel like eating our leftovers. I originally was going to order the Island Style Short Ribs but the worker suggested the Mongolian Short Ribs instead. He said the sauce was "better". So that is what you see below:

Ha - okay, now it's the "dance" scene in "Sixteen Candles" where they play the songs, "Theme to "Peter Gunn"  and that 80's slow song classic, "True" by Spandau Ballet.
Sigh.

Samantha Baker looking forlornly at Jake Ryan dancing with his girlfriend Caroline while "True" is on. The song is rudely interrupted by the school geek, (then) skinny and gangly Anthony Michael Hall as Farmer Ted. Cue the song, "Wild Sex (in the Working Class) by Oingo Boingo.

"Hot! Hot! Very Hot!" the geek shouts as he spasmodically dances in front of her mortified visage before she sighs in frustration and runs off in tears.
