A friend dropped off some homemade baked ziti yesterday which I didn't eat because I was already cooking branzino. But I get to have it tonight and it is delicious.

Come on CE, you lived in LA, east LA has the best tacos. |

Lunch yesterday at Cedric’s Tavern on the grounds of the Biltmore estate. They bring fresh pickles to your table along with ice water. I could not place the flavor, but they are quite unique.
Me: 1/2 pound burger cooked medium. Lettuce, onion, tomato, ketchup, fries. Mrs BV: Spring garden tart (tomato, mushroom, red pepper, gruyere cheese, pickled mustard seeds), green salad. No alcoholic beverages because we had an appointment for a wine tasting to follow. Tasted a Rosè, Sauvignon blanc, Malbec, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Tempranillo. The Malbec was the best of the bunch. |

It’s a different kind of burger. 👆🏻 Some dish not found in Singapore [/QUOTE] As mentioned in earlier post , just not found in Singapore ! We have not seen it on menus anyway where we go . Perhaps at some backpackers / touristy joint ? if at all .. What we had last night , first time for me , was lobster “ pao fun “ ( crispy rice in broth ) . Pao fun is somewhat common here these days after only being round in fancy Chinese restaurants in hotels like Hua Ting ( Orchard Hotel ) and Summer Pavilion ( Ritz Carlton ) . Also fish head curry - Chinese version - with beancurd ( pok ) and beanskin . |

"King of Pao Fan" is supposed to be good (mixed reviews)... but there was also supposed to be one somewhere in the north... but I can't remember what it was called (pao fan was only a side gig for them)... but yeah. It was very rare before, but now becoming more common from what I have heard. |
Big mixed salad - BEC style. Actually even my spouse confirmed that it’s a loud salad - probably the red cabbage and carrots and celery besides the croutons!! Lol

Tonight will be burger night. Stopped off at my butcher. Picked up some of his chuck/sirloin blend patties. I will sauté some onion, garlic and mushrooms. Add some Sweet Baby Rays secret sauce, which I kick up with some Franks extra hot sauce. Add some slices of slab bacon, purchased at the butcher as well. Cook the burgers in bacon grease (it adds a great taste to the meat). Toast some brioche buns….and there you have it! Some fries on the side…washed down with a Red Stripe. I will be sleeping right after loading the dishwasher!
