Dinner last night at the Sainte George restaurant. Lovely place with very good service but not too impressed with the food. Mrs BV didn’t want much so had a side salad. I ordered a $19 burger that was served with every trendy cliche available in the kitchen: brioche bun, garlic aioli, chimichurri, micro greens, pickled red onion, etc. Ordered medium, received well done. The wine was nice although I couldn’t tell you what it was.
St Augustine has loads of wine bars. We started out in one across the street from the restaurant, Bin 39. Pleasant spot. Again, I couldn’t tell you what we had but it was delicious. Todays plan is to choose a casual place on the beach for seafood. |

Last night, dinner at Gaijin with another couple. It's a Paul Virant restaurant (for those who've heard of him) specializing in okonomiyaki.
Started out with pickled vegetables, short ribs, and bok choy. Each couple the split a pancake. We had Osaka style octopus with an egg on top. The other one was some kind of gluten free version, not sure what was in it. Mochi donuts for dessert. Lots of Suntory whiskey. Totally my kind of food, I loved it. My wife liked the pancake and short rib, but nothing else. We'll probably choose Momotaro's basement yakitori bar over Gaijin, but it was still fun. |

Prepared properly, (and yours looks to be expertly prepared), they are delicious. |

Mmmmmm. Triggers used to be relatively rare in the waters up here. They were a fish caught as by catch, when targeting something else. Over the past 2 years, we have had an influx of them, thanks to warmer waters. (Thanks global warming). In fact, I know Captains that now target them.

Some whole wheat naan and hummus.

I had spring sfybl (PONY) zoom meeting so my spouse ordered DoorDash from Indian clay oven for supper. Yum! I wouldn’t have considered it.
kashmiri naan (cherry / raisin / almond) Hydrabadi lamb (with fruit & potato straws) chana masala lentils (dal) butter chicken rice good and all was mild. Supposedly the lamb was medium and it didn’t feel spicy. I love too much spice. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...bb2db32d2.jpeg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...296357c6a.jpeg |

Not sure if there's anything to being influenced by others, but you have me thinking about having some corn flakes with that new Fairlife milk thing I'm trying. Growing up, I used to love Tony the Tiger cornflakes, especially how at the end the milk would be so sweet!
cereal milk is always nice. we buy fairlife as well as Trader Joe’s organic milk. All good. |

But now, I prefer little or no sweetness! Perhaps I should give that Fairlife a try... if I can buy it in Canadia. |

Bought some short-dated stewing beef the other day and wanted to make something other than goulash which I've probably made between - veal and beef - close to half dozen times this year. Found a recipe for a once-vulgar ;) dish, brown beef stew with dumplings. Don't think I've seen this offered in any place in the U.K. for 30-40 years (maybe in the frozen section of a supermarket), and it's surprisingly rather obscure even where I am, in the past let alone current day.

I had a frozen pepperoni pizza from WH in the freezer. I doctored up with goat cheese and fresh basil. Instead of the oven, I did it on the grill. Then I topped it with honey & pepperoncini. Not bad for store bought frozen pizza.

Meats and cheeses, salad, pizzas, pasta with Bolognese, grilled vegetables at an outdoor wedding reception catered by Chris Bianco. Oh, and an all chocolate wedding cake.

Next batch of stew meat will go into a steak and mushroom pie (never acquired the taste for kidneys). Not sure if I can make the pastry like this though https://i.pinimg.com/originals/f4/06...0a9d7b8b5b.jpg |
