Let alone fride rice?? I'm pretty sure the food was great, but I dont like the fact that it's other culture's traditional foods that have adapted and other cultures claiming that it's traditional. Pork sausages, cabbage rolls, Stewed pork w/veggies like bakchoi, nqaij tsaws (pork boiled for at least 5-6 hours mixed w/ greens and boiled for an additional hour) are considered Hmong Food. Another great example would be chicken, (thai chicken w/ herbs all of our parents grow so sacredly in their back yards and used for women for one month after labor) are Hmong foods. From what I know, and cook daily, my family and my father-in-law does not say ‘I want lomein, or sometype of hmong course that has a chinese origin’ or even curry? That was adapted from Thai and Veitnamese. I’m sorry to say, but where ever it was that you ate, it does not sound like Hmong food to me. That’s like Chinese. And I would not eat it if it was labeled Hmong food. I’m quite offended that whoever runs this resturant can even call it Real and Traditional Hmong Food. I’m pretty sure if that person is Hmong, it’s not what they are cooking at home for their elders…….

]]> Comment on Own a business in Tulsa? Tell us about it… by Olivia Alkhatib http://tulsatonight.com/tulsa/own-a-business-in-tulsa-tell-us-about-it/#comment-419 Olivia Alkhatib Fri, 05 Sep 2008 04:04:45 +0000 http://tulsatonight.com/tulsa/own-a-business-in-tulsa-tell-us-about-it/#comment-419 Hello, my name is Olivia Alkhatib, my family just recently opened up a steakhouse in south tulsa (big step for us, we've owned a Bill&Ruths for about 19 years, then sold it to open up our steakhouse) We've gotten write ups in the Tulsaworld and Urban Tulsa, both very nice. I just wanted to post a little something because I'm very proud of my father. He came to America when he was 18 lived in Boston, NYC, and various places before settling here and going into the restaurant biz. I'm sure as everyone knows this line of business isn't always prosperous and you don't necessarily get a booming crowd right away, but my dad did a lot and worked hard to get us to where we are now. I think more people appreciate a family owned business more that a chain. So this is my little tribute to my dad, owner of Bluestone Steakhouse and Seafood. If you guys get a chance, come check us out! www.bluestonesteakhouse.com Thanks -Olivia Hello, my name is Olivia Alkhatib, my family just recently opened up a steakhouse in south tulsa (big step for us, we’ve owned a Bill&Ruths for about 19 years, then sold it to open up our steakhouse) We’ve gotten write ups in the Tulsaworld and Urban Tulsa, both very nice.

As for the dareals character, we're as close to chinky-chinese as they come. Vinnie is correct, nobody holds the authenticity of "traditional" anymore. Today, food and spices are inter-mingled and mix-match to suit the taste of the everyday Hienz 57 American. Vinnie,

Either way, glad you enjoyed the Tamales! Vinnie J-9,
