For lunch, my dad and I decided to go on a date and drove to Chinatown on this sunny day. We ended up going to Fort St. George which is this dainty little hole in the wall restaurant across from Uwajimaya in downtown Seattle.

When we walked into the second story restaurant, we were warmly greeted and were served with hot coffee. We began our ordering, which was a semi- a la carte style of service. I ordered the Special of the day which was Duplix with scallops and shrimp. It was food for the heart. So delicious! My father ordered a beef steak Japanese curry with pickled daikon. They both were full of flavor, different than what I've grown up with and yet at the same time what I remembered eating as a kid. It is hard to explain the exact feeling that, but it was very delicious!

This is a Mango cream of soda. It was topped with heavy whipped cream, dolloped with yogurt ice cream, and had a maraschino that added a beautiful contrast to the drink. The flavor was surprisingly wonderful and well recommended. It reminded me of Japanese hard candies that I've had before in the past.


This is the beef steak curry that was ordered to us. Its flavor was strong and had a thicker saucy flavor than most curries. It's strong flavor was wonderful and delicious and was even more amazing since it was brought to the table steaming hot. On the side of the curry was a red daikon that is a traditional Japanese ingredient. It's contrasting flavor and color enhanced the main dish.

This dish is called Duplix which consists of mini scallops, shrimp, a red sauce, and Japanese rice. After the rice is cooked and mixed with the red sauce, it is placed into the ramekin, covered with cheese and reheated to melt the cheese. It is then served with a plank. The cheese acts as an insulator and once you prick the cheese open, the inside erupt with steam. The flavor is at its peak of yumminess and is enjoyed by the consumer. This was my dish and I ate it with pleasure and happiness. It was so delicious and was very unique in flavor as well.
