One of my Favorites... Egg Foo Yung

Of all foods throughout the world, I have one that I would search the halls of hell to find... the elusive egg foo young. When I was a kid, we would go to this very old, very interesting Chinese restaurant in old town Portland called Hung Far Loo. It was one of my father's favorite places and there I discovered the most amazing dish I had ever tasted. Over the years, it has disappeared from menus around Portland ~sigh~ and with the exception of Happy Fortune on Barbur Blvd, and Chins Kitchen in N. Portland, I haven't found others. I'm sure they are out there, but it used to be a staple in all Chinese restaurants. Thinking I would have to miss it forever when I went on this plan, I found his amazing Keto Egg Foo Young recipe on Food Network. Anyway, it was absolutely delicious and we are definitely going to do it again. Enjoy!
