Snow crab, crawdads, skrimps, sausage, corn, and pots. The skrimps were ordered "fire" level...weak as far as spice level goes. Was a tasty meal, though.
So I’ve been trying to lose some weight lately, hit a bit of a plateau the last couple of weeks so I’m looking for some creative ways to replace worthless calories. One of the main things I came across on the internet was how versatile cauliflower is, so I’ve been doing some stuff with that. Here is a grilled cauliflower steak I made the other night. Pretty damn good.
“cauliflower steak” sounds like a bit of an oxymoron.
If I had known then what I know now...

A good two weeks for food and drink. My dear friend from Brazil is visiting, and he brought Brazilian food and drink with him.
Paçoquita is ground peanuts and sugar and salt pressed into a bar and it's amazing. Any peanut lover must watch for it in international markets. Goiabada is a fruit paste made from goiaba (guava) fruit and it's delicious as well. It's like a gooey fruit leather. Doce de leite (pronounced exactly as leche) is a soft dippable caramel, very good and milky.
He also brought Heisenbahn and Brahma beers, but more importantly, he brought some good Cachaça!!! (Pronounced "kashasa") It is a signature Brazilian spirit fermented from sugar cane juice, so it's similar to rum but different. Tomorrow we go out on the boat and drink caipirinha (ky-peereenya) cocktails. Cachaça and ice with muddled lime and sugar. I can't wait, I haven't had un caipirinha in 5 years.
The Alumni Club on campus (an events venue - lots of weddings are booked there too) has a weekly buffet, with a different ethnic cuisine each week. Last week was Thai, and that was super duper good, with lemongrass chicken thighs, Thai red curried vegetables, lime leaf jasmine rice, Thai slaw, chilled Vermicelli salad, Thai custard for dessert. It was delicious! And today we went for the Indian buffet. Bombay curry chicken, masala dum aloo, biryuani rice, naan, roti, and toasted papadums with cucumber mint raita, kachumber salad, spicy aloo chaat salad, and rice pudding (thank goodness they also have normal desserts like little cakes and stuff. I hate rice pudding). So good!! And this is for $11.00, with this view:
Sometimes I feel spoiled at my job, lol.
(PS - that view shows us where the pipeline Trudeau plans on building will terminate, right below on the shore that's out of the bottom of the frame. and that water way is where aaallllll the extra tankers will be. Yeah, no shit people are protesting)

Through his books and show, you felt like you knew the guy.
he did good and important work. Opened people to places and cultures that were not accessible. He tried to make the world a more understanding place.
my wife also credits him for her having a clean kitchen after I cook. In Kitchen confidential he stressed the importance of cooking clean and dry and I have gone by that ever since, which was 10 or so years ago when I really started cooking as a hobby

This is all awesome. Do report back. I have heard for caipirinhas but have never had one.

A long story surrounding those drinks at a swanky fundraiser I went to back in the day. The ending of the story has me informed the next morning by my wife (then gf) that I bid $10,000 on a puppy during the auction. Luckily, I was outbid. (And I was the one that arranged for the puppy to be donated for the fund raiser....meaning I could have just bought one at cost from a friend who owned a private pet store.) Good luck with those!
