    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. 
  • What did they cost and what are they costing now?

    How large are the prawns?

    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:





  • I have one of those in the freezer that will come out soon.

    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.)
