Last night I had a poke bowl that seemed to have been made by a chef who'd never had poke before. (Carrots and tomatoes?!)
Interesting, we haven't eaten there in 2 years but didn't think the food was bad. But that poke sounds awful. No real reason to go back now that we're in the burbs anyway.

I could eat almost this whole plate of carrots. I had these in a restaurant in Croatia in September & this is my knock off version .😜
Wow, I want those carrots. What part of Croatia? I would have eaten those every meal if I had seen them in Dalmatia.
Strange development for our dinners. My wife got COVID last week and lost her smell and taste on Friday night. We found out because she said the dinner I made was bland...that was a sure sign something wasn't right
. I've read that it lasts about 3-4 weeks so she may be out of luck for Christmas. But there's a silver lining! I'll be making meals I love, but she won't eat under normal conditions. She's agreed to homemade split pea soup and roasted brussels sprouts so far. I'll try to convince her of lamb too - maybe burgers or chops.
