Chinese restaurant in Nikko

This place was overpriced. I can only think that it was because it was in Nikko which is very touristy, but they charged me $2.10 for rice and my whole meal was over $30. Also, it was not long grain rice, what kind of chinese restaurant was this. Anyway, I was tired hungry and buzzed from exhausion.

I ordered abalone, okay that is kind of expensive. Actually I though it was abalone and oysters and then when I read the menu again after they brought it out thinking it was a mistake, it was abalone in oyster sauce. Oh well, it was pretty good and I can't say it didn't taste good with the shitake mushrooms and shiny sauce. Although it had cooked lettuce underneath to soak up the sauce. I would have prefered a more valuable vegetable like cabbage.

Actually I think the rice charge wasn't only for the rice, there was soup and tsukemono which I didn't order, but it's like a set price I guess.
