There are Cauldrons.

There are Soups.

There are Cauldrons of Soup.

There is Silver Star.

I chose Indian Food as the dinner to celebrate my 47th year but just as we were about to go to press with an Evite Jamie brainstormed Silver Star as a more fitting location and I could not agree moreso. This Old School Chinese Restaurant (.-)) was attentive in the wait staff and even provided us 2 staging areas and an invisible table nearby for our bags and framed autographed photos of Keith Emerson.

I have to give it to Jamie for calling ahead concerning mixed drinks only to find that Silver Star is a B.Y.O.B. establishment, perhaps it is a good thing we didn't know this 30 years ago. Jennie brought a bottle of Champagne and I donated one red & one white zinfandel, the table enjoyed the Zin while Joe and myself polished off the Shiraz.

Even the erosion of time leaves these sterno's conducive and unchanged.

Wise Mr. Frank ordered his usual, Shrimp in Lobster Sauce with Pork Fried Rice and Egg Roll (combination), of note there is an unusually shaped Crispy Noodle above the plate (1 o' clock).

Bob-San enjoyed Spare Rib with Pork Fried Rice and Egg Roll.

Confuscius say "Confusion Abounds Here" as I do not recall who got the Pork with Mixed Vegetables,  my memory tells me that both Dragon Lady Jennie and China Doll Madge both ordered "Chow Mein" but I am obviously Wong and must commit Harry Carry.

Emperor Joe went the right route for an American-Chinese Restaurant and sampled some Egg Foo Young with Gravy, Pork Fried Rice & Egg Roll.

The Emperor walked away happily.

My fellow Asian and PuertoPino friend Manny had a manly plate indeed with Chicken Chow Mein, Egg Roll, Pork Fried Rice AND Spare Ribs.

Madama Jamiefly was wise in her asian ordering and was served the Boneless Chicken atop Mixed Chinese Vegetables which is a Favorite to ALL.

Boneless Chicken ?
How Did It Walk ?

I ordered my mainstay, Roast Pork Chow Mein.
No One makes it this way.

Thanks Everyone for the Birthday Party.

There was a Panda with Bok Choy as well but then I was told it was Bamboo.
Oh Wait, BAMBU.
