Description
My favourite chinies dish . My mother used to accompany dad to help him out in work at our saree shop in Coimbatore every day . So my holidays were always no parents at home most of the time ,but even we were taken along with them to our shop often . Family time at home was so rare . It happened only once in a blue moon . In one among the blue moon occasions , we had lunch ordered a take away , from a three star hotel surya (Now its vivantha taj ) I usually order only new wired names from the menu . I did order american chop suey . I remember we all were watching a scary English movie in the down bed room having lunch together . The American chop suey was so yum but the movie was not letting me enjoy the meal and company of my parents and brother .
