You must be one of those bottom feeders that alfred1 is trying to warn us about.

I'm sure this won't offend anyone.

Sorry, I cheated:

"Possibly comes from the term "Honky Tonk", which is a type of country music. Another interesting theory suggests it originated as "Hunky" (and "Bohunk") to refer to Slavic and Hungarian immigrants and eventually transformed into "Honkey" to refer to all White people. Might also come from the African Wolof word "Honq" meaning red or pink and used to describe white men. Yet another theory has it originating from white men honking their horns to call on the lounge singer/prostitute types in 1920's Harlem."

So, Vash, which one is it?

drago, i was told that it was the last reason, sorta. actually, back in the days of segregation, white folks would drive to pick up the domestic help. they would honk the horns, and that is how it was started. i heard this story yelled at me, when i drove to pick up my friend, carl. i "beeped" and his mom came out yelling. scared the crap out of me, but she laughed after i apologized. and fed me some great potato salad, that she later showed me how to make.

I think this is the second thread you've used the term. You seem to use it as nonchalantly as the other racial slurs you recite. I don't really care who you like or dislike or your reason for using them, but would appreciate their use in the privacy of your own chow line, not on a public forum. If you want to make yourself useful, just give us a list of recommended eateries in LV, but leave your ignorance. prejudices and attention-deficit disorders at home.

It's also healtheir if you do so. You should hope the waiters and chefs at "Chows....it is at 5485 W Sahara...at the corner of Sahara and Lindell" won't prepare a "special" dish for your consumption. My Mom once told me, "don't anger the people who work in restaurants. They prepare what you eat." My sister-in-law used to work at a famous bakery when she was a teener. She once told me of the special cakes, pastries and pies they prepared for their "special customers".

Post your latest pic and I'll send it along to the good folks at Chows...at the corner of Sahara and Lindell.

Bon appetit,

I'm a sucker for plain old pork and shrimp Shu Mai, and shrimp and chive ball.

I'll go in and knock down $20 on that stuff, with the sweet chili (not the runny red Siracha stuff) all day long.

In Seattle, Hong Kong Seafood restaurant / Rainier - if you can get past the locale it's killer.

randy! you are wise. apparently when a chef applies for a job at the dimsum houses. shu mai is always the test to see if he/she is fit for duty. i heard making those good, is not easy. the other test is just a plain ole. pork bun, chaishue bow. ironic, but i find most dimsum too rich. i still shovel it in tho.

sherwood, i worked in the business, but i have never "sauced" anything. haha. nobody pissed me off so much that my sarcasm couldnt make me feel better. you crack me up.
