Silver label Aussie wagyu hanger - Sous vide then seared. Last time I made these I messed up and overcooked. Made up for it this time.

Last night I was reading reviews on Yelp for Chinese restaurants in Vancouver. I came across one - I don’t remember the name of the dish - but those dumplings came in 7 different colors. They all sounded delicious to me except the green one.

Hunan smoked pork ftw. I'll have to check out Eric's the next time I'm in the area. It was one of the first restaurants I tried after moving to the City in 1998.

My favorite smoked pork was at Hunan Home's, but I believe both the SF and Mtn View locations have closed :(

As mentioned earlier, we're visiting Yellowstone National Park since our youngest is working here this summer - as one of the cooks at the Dining Room of Old Faithful Inn.

Two options for dinner at the Inn's Dining Room - buffet or a la carte from the menu:

https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...cb1d8cafe6.jpg

https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...1174634ceb.jpg
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...4d91f43675.jpg

We ordered and were served from the menu.

(Also a reminder that reservations are required at the Dining Room)

Our dinner:

Drinks:

Salads and mains and side:

House salad, prime rib, osso bucco and a side of fries since they didn't have baked potatoes and I didn't want mashed

After dinner libations and dessert:

I had $25 in Uber Eats credits to use up, so I ordered from a local Mediterranean restaurant which operates like a Chipotle (and is delicious). I settled on the falafel (made fresh in store) and a gyro bowl with hummus, sumac onions, cucumber, olives, lettuce and tzatziki.
