Jingle Bell Wok: Fa-La-La-La-Men & Lo Mein at Wonton King!
About the event
It’s our last D-3 event of 2026! Before the holiday hustle carries us off in different directions, let’s dine together, wish everyone a happy holiday, and close the year with the friends who made it special. Whether you’re a familiar face or joining us for the first time, we’d love to have you at the table.
Warm tea in teapots, homemade dumplings… and ROUND TABLES!!!!!! These are a few of my favorite things! Especially those round tables—more faces in the conversation, fewer fellas stranded at the far end wondering what everyone’s laughing about.
And before we head off to family gatherings and practice our convincing “Aunt Martha, this ham salad is wonderful” face—followed by an oatmeal cookie that could scrape ice off a windshield—let’s enjoy a holiday meal with the Dudes. YAY, family traditions!
Everyone enjoyed Wonton King last year, so we’re returning for another helping! With Christmas falling on a Friday and holiday calendars filling up, we’re gathering on a Sunday this time—a little peace on earth, with someone else doing the cooking.
Start your appetite jingling with crab rangoon, boiled or fried pot stickers, spring rolls, or barbecue spare ribs. Consider those the opening gifts before the main unwrapping.
Then feast your eyes on crispy sesame chicken, Mongolian beef, honey BBQ pork, or salt-and-pepper shrimp. There’s also cashew chicken, roast duck, and Hong Kong–style seafood chow mein—traditional Cantonese specialties and familiar favorites worth gathering around.
Dreaming of a white Christmas? Start with a snowy mound of steamed rice and let the Mongolian beef move in. That’s one accumulation we’ll gladly dig into. No shovel required—just an appetite.
Add a steaming cup of hot tea on a cold winter’s day, good conversation, and a little holiday laughter, and you’ve got a lovely way to finish the year.
RSVP so we can wish our D-3 family a happy holiday and share one more meal before we welcome 2027. The meals bring us together; the friendships keep us coming back.
Don we now our gay apparel… fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-lo mein!
