Hokkaido Buffet – (949) 851-5888 – 4200 Scott Drive, Newport Beach, 92660
This is a seafood buffet that has an unlimited sushi bar and crab/shrimp/n’ various sea creatures that seafood lovers love. There’s also the typical Chinese non-seafood stuff like fried rice, orange chicken, miso soup for land animal eaters only like myself. It’s comparable to Todai or Sumo – quasi-Japanese/Chinese buffets. There will be something for everyone but the biggest enjoyment will be for seafood/sushi lovers.

Thanh Restaurant – Irvine - 949-559-7788 – www.thanhrestaurant.com 15315 Culver Drive #140, 92604
Very clean and nicely decorated upscale restaurant befitting of it’s Irvine location.
Com Tam (Gum Tum) – translates to broken rice. A filling meal of rice with delicious grilled meat or seafood, served with pickled vegetables, sometimes with egg-foo-young patty or a fried egg. Drizzle the fish sauce all over and you’ve got a pretty tasty rice dish.
I like the Com Ga (Gum Gaah) – Chicken Rice from the Thanh (Ton) restaurant in Irvine. They put these tasty thin onion ring-like strips over a generous portion of the salad.
