For my cold appetizers, I selected Rice Noodles with Carrot & Seaweed, Eggplant, and Pork Ear; however, I went with a friend, and he wanted nothing to do with a pig's ear, so I'll eat and blog that one another time. The rice noodles were chewy and almost as crunchy as the carrot and the seaweed. It also came with garlic pieces and some fresh ginger, and it was dressed with soy sauce, chili oil, and vinegar. It was refreshing and delicious. The eggplant, cut into straight pieces (like little logs), was steamed with skin on, and it was succulent. The dressing was soy sauce and oil with a touch of sour. My sister said she doesn't like Chinese food, and my mother said she doesn't like eggplant, but they both tried this dish and changed their minds!
