I seem to post a lot about food in OT, but here we go again...
Probably the homemade Chicken Pot Pie we made last week sometime I believe it was. Before then it was a Chicken Fried Steak with Country Gravy, Green Beans & Fries.
@speeny: nothing wrong with food posts!
As for me, I made last night: some sous vide miso salmon (wild salmon caught that very morning), green beans sauted with bread crumbs and lemon zest, and some pressed potatoes (par-boil some small potatoes, put them on a sheetpan, then smash them a bit so they break open. Then you drizzle some olive oil, garlic, maybe some rosemary and cook it at high heat til crispy).
Was a nice dinner. Pretty healthy, too!

Seems lovely. Will have to give the green beans with breadcrumbs a go.
Ate last Friday at a good Mexican restaurant. Started off with queso blanco, fresh jalapeno slices and chips. Then had a spicy habanero chicken chimichanga with the works (pico de gallo, guacamole, lettuce and sour cream), rice and beans on the side.
For dessert had a sopapilla with ice cream. Was heaven.
This place serves the biggest portions, it's a hell of a lot of food. I put it down, though. Next day was a little rough.
Came back to my home country and had a great Mirandesa steak as my first meal, absolutely delicious meat. I'm mostly vegetarian now, so when I eat meat it's a joy.
Been experimenting with more homemade recipes. This one was a kalbi recipe I found only that's a soy, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, and green onion marinade. I also added some mirin for additional flavor. Most of the time I try to replicate a dish I have at a good restaurant I'm underwhelmed by the result, but these came out about as good as I could have expected.
My wife and I went to a local pizza place called Noble Romans which has been around for a long time, but closed for a few years, and then reopened in a new location. The pizza was really damn good, I had a Hawaiian pizza with a bbq sauce drizzled on that played well with pineapple (yes, I know it's divisive) and she had a peppers, olives, and sausage. Both of them were sicillian style thick crust and cooked just perfectly. We both walked out wanting to go again and try all the other options they had.
I had ribs with bourbon bbq sauce. They were goooood.
Nothing like a good rack of ribs.
There are few foods that I think I could eat for the rest of my life--I like my variety, and there are so many cultures with so many cuisines, and different parts of the world with different climates and biomes and foods--but ribs might be one of those things I could eat every day until I am dead.
Which would probably be like age 60 because they're fatty as hell haha.
Drove up to Phillie the last week, walked around and picked up some chicken gyros from a street vendor.
“I sayd GODDAYMN!!!“
IDGAF, kick me some $5 slop from those who immigrated here, know their native foods, and are running their business from a cart on the sidewalk over a domestic five star cuisine any day of the ****ing week. Ok maybe not five star, but damn these guys make tasty shit. I make it a point to drive to Philadelphia at least once a month JUST for this place. I buy like five gyros and two dinner plates at a time when I do so as gas and tolls are expensive, not to mention traffic. I’d head up there tomorrow if I wasn’t trying to save some bank for a new PC.
Pizza loaf. Make a meatloaf, then drain off the grease, top with sauce and cheese and bake to golden brown. Served on a bed of homemade mashed potatoes.. delicious! =)
A spicy scrambled egg, I bet most people haven't eaten that yet.
I like to put Siracha and crushed red peppers in mine. =)

I like to put spicy fried, runny, eggs on bunless burgers.
Well, it's not THE best, but I did got a new taco place and had some pretty good chicken nachos, an amazing margarita called Rosa Rita that had a cube of frozen cranberry and orange juice in the center and churro donuts with agave syrup that was simply out of this world!
