dude. i'm chinese and we NEVER order fried rice, thats the leftover "room temperature" stuff.

Wednesday I met Paul Soohoo, owner and founder of the Pago Pago in Milford (and one sharp cookie). He took me out back to the kitchen during the nickel tour. He offered me some of the big, big bowl of fried rice the kitchen staff whipped up for themselves. I dunno about room temperature leftovers but the one thing he showed me was the color--white! "Brown" fried rice is for the haoles I'm told.

I've been having a blast talking to the owners of these places. I've been noticing a common pattern that might account for the disappearance of all them old tiki joints. I really think it will surprise you...
