    The boys across the street have cleaned everything in their house and they are bored.  I love it when they are bored.  Yesterday afternoon, I got a call that they were making us beef stroganoff and NY style cheesecake.  So very delicious!

    I'm definitely on a Korean kick lately so I made Bulgogi last night. I used pork shoulder- sliced it into thin strips and marinated for a few hours.
    God damn, man.  That looks good.  Impressive presentation too.

    That really does look good.  I wish my Asian cuisine game was stronger.  The sauces, oh the sauces.  
    Savory, sweet, and spicy; together in bold concentration, (is a semicolon appropriate or should that be a comma?) is the flavor profile that most rocks my world.

    Because I posted this elsewhere it really should be shared here too.  These two items were a staple in my single living for years.  When you pair the Tapatio w these burritos it was happiness for my taste buds.  All time favorite here.

    Also I know I have shared it before but this is Dexter Hollands Hot Sauce.  It is frigging fantastic.  He's the lead singer from Offspring.

    Give it a shot.  It's my go to hot sauce now.  Great flavor to it.

    Cliffy see if you can find a cut called "Tri-tip".  You'll never eat that cut of Skirt ever again.

    People!  I can't recommend Tri-tip enough!!  Get on this train!!!

    My regular butcher has tri tip and I dig it.  Skirt steak will be used for a steak salad or something along those lines.

    If you haven't had a flat iron steak I highly recommend it!  Usually cheap too, because it's not well known.

    Message from local fishmonger who has an online shop:


    I ordered a few. Picking them up tomorrow. Lobster is expensive here- it's a different variety than the Maine lobster and it is pricey. I ordered some fresh Galway Bay prawns as well.

    Depending on the market price, it normally costs around 25 euro for a decent size lobster. They're being sold for 11 euro each. I'll weigh it when I bring it home.

    Prawns average size:

    Lobster.  An expensive way to eat butter.

    I had tri tip for the first time last year in Palm Springs, it was good! I can’t seem to find it here.
    Here’s the tiny turkey I cooked for dinner:

    Pizza Night.
    Basic Margherita to start. That's Tigger, the King, on his throne in the background.


    Then roasted peppers and olives. 



    And Fresca. One of my favourites. It's cooked in a Sicilian tray with Mushroom, zucchini, tomato and onion.

    Wow those are beautiful - you have a great presentation in the dishes you share.
    That last one, especially.

    (I would put them back in for a few more, I like a bit of char.  Fuck, I want pizza now.)
