Longbridge pizza, SF:

detroit - sausage & pepper

other pizza
salad

our UM friend said that this is almost as good as Buddy’s. he might have even said that it’s the closest to Buddy’s in SF - we have about 6 Detroit style pizza spots and 3-4 of them only have Detroit style!

I been playing around with ceviches of varying descriptions. The one I have settled on is a mix of Latin American with the addition of coconut milk as they do in Tahiti. I also cut the sourness by adding a bit of squeezed orange juice. It's become a summer favourite and beats the hell out of coooking in this humidity.

Dinner was green salad, sauteed spinach and grilled salmon. I tried something new...I brined the salmon and I really liked it. Flavor was better and I liked the texture.

I usually cook salmon on my Traeger at 225 for 35 minutes. It has proved to be foolproof and the tastiest I have ever had. I also have discovered the "miracle" marinade for salmon, no matter how it's cooked. Basque Norte. 1 to 2 hours in a ziplock bag in the fridge.

I have never heard of Basque Norte except it sounds l8ke they are talking steak.
35 minutes?? Is that for a whole salmon? I just cook filets & go for about 8 or 9" per inch of thickness. Total. I marinated it after I brined it.

Sorry, I should have said fillets. For salmon we only buy Sockeye or Coho, and portion size 6-7 oz. They are about 3/4" on the thick side, tapering down from there.
Yes, 225 degrees for 35 minutes, perfect every time.

Thank you...that's a very sweet thing to say. But who doesn't love pasta? Actually it would be good over rice or just on its own....especially if you like margaritas.

I don't hate pasta, I just don't like it nearly as much as most folks. The types I do sorta like tend to be not the tomato-y kind. I'm sure I would like the dish you pictured. As an aside, I LOVE Asian noodle dishes. I could eat good chow mein every week.

I like to mix up "noodle" dishes. Try new combinations... You never know what you find and like. Classics are good too, but as they say. Variety is the spice of life. Just some combos don't work well together. Cheese and rice noodles for example.
