πΊπΈ LAβs Hidden Gem in El Monte! Insane Cantonese Roast Meats! π¦π―
Just got dragged by a friend to Happy Together in El Monte β and OH. MY. GOODNESS. Iβm officially a fan! β¨ This place is a Cantonese dream come true. π₯ #1: Roast Meats Combo β Roast Duck + Honey Char Siu This dish alone is worth the drive! Super authentic, just like what youβd find in Guangzhou or Hong Kong. π¦ Roast Duck: Crispy, glossy skin Tender, juicy meat Paired with their savory sauce β an explosion of flavor! π― Honey Char Siu: Thick, generous cuts Perfectly sweet, not overwhelming Soft, bouncy, and fragrant π‘ One word: FINALLY β real-deal Cantonese roast meats in LA! π₯ #2: Fish Roe & Vermicelli Shrimp Clay Pot A fragrant seafood bomb! π¦ Huge shrimp with crispy, tasty shells (we finished them in seconds!) Vermicelli soaked in rich savory broth Topped with fish roe for extra umami π₯ #3: Honey Garlic Pork Ribs Crispy outside, tender inside β great with rice π We found it a bit heavy, so we didnβt eat much, but flavor-wise itβs solid! π― Final Take Happy Together is a must-visit for Cantonese roast meat lovers! Iβm usually all about spicy food πΆοΈ, but todayβs dishes totally won me over. Stable quality, authentic taste, clean & spacious β a hidden Cantonese heaven in El Monte. Iβll be back for sure! π 9920 Valley Blvd, 1st Floor, El Monte, CA 91731 #LAEats #CantoneseFood #RoastDuck #CharSiu #ElMonteEats #HongKongTaste #ChineseFoodLA #HappyTogether #ComfortFoodGOAT ππ₯
