Ottawa Foodies

We went to Christmas Eve dinner party at our friend's place. She ordered many dishes from Du Barry Chinese Buffet: Stir-fried Sticky Rice (this dish has peanut, watch out if you are allergic to peanut), Singapore Style Vermicelli, Spring Rolls, Soy Sauce Chicken and deep-fried Chicken Wings; and also two dishes from Fortune Express (deep-fried tofu and Szechuan Style Sesame Beef). She cooked two vegetable plates herself (baby Bok Choy and broccoli).

Du Barry has two famous dishes: Stir-fried sticky rice, and Char Siu (BBQ pork). My friend didn't know that Du Barry's BBQ pork is famous and didn't order it. So, I just mention it here (I haven't tried it myself).

Next time you want to host a party, you can try the similar dishes that my friend ordered. But I would recommend that you add assorted sushi platter (from your favourite Japanese restaurant) to the table.

Note: Here is the recipe for stir-fried sticky rice from Egullet

Lots of variety when compared to other Chinese buffet restaurants. However, I found the place very dirty and hestitate to try their food again. Once is enough for me.
