Sam Woo – Van Nuys

Here is a place I usually go to for some bbq chicken or roast duck. Or when you feel like some warm porridge with duck and century egg. Its on the way home and its right next to a 99 Ranch Market so you can do your groceries on your way. This place is another chain, and the closest Sam Woo in the valley. My buddies from work decided to eat here for a Friday Lunch.

When you enter, the first thing you will see is their TOGO BBQ area. Here you order the bbq stuff on display by the pound, which is completely different pricing from the sit in menu.

 

 

 

Usually when its packed, you write the number of people eating on a pre-numbered list and you just hold the stub, and they will call you by number. Here is what we ordered

Careful with this dish when eating with Kim, he loves duck so much he stares you down when he see’s you take his favorite piece. Just look out for his fork, if its held with a fist face down, then you’re in trouble.

Jerry was looking for the Mang Thomas Lechon Sauce for this Roast Pork

 

And for the Carbs for it all, Salty Fish Fried Rice with Chicken, and Singapore Style Fried Rice Vermicelli

 

Good lunch, definitely killed it. This place is in a good spot for me, so when I feel like eating some decent chinese in the valley, I go here for a quick fix. If you do not mind driving, go to the other Sam Woo’s you will notice that they’re not consisitent with quality and taste. Some places are better with specific dishes, but its still good food for the price.
