what are you eating today?

[BriankLi]

Been eating Ramon noodles for a week straight lol

[ninetynine]

how was the drink.  sounds interesting.

 

Almost no sweetness whatsoever, it was called a 'liver tonic' which makes sense as my digestion felt v good afterwards

 

I thought it was excellent

Made this last weekend, fucking delicious. Sweet, salty umami bomb.

Glad it worked out. Food looks real nice. You have a circulator at home?

Too much protein on these risottos, though. haha

recent trip to Hong Kong.

 

 

Started with Butao. Hello Black King.

 

 

 

Went to Motorino for dinner. I am partial to the majority that think the crust is just burnt.

 

 

 

Had dimsum at Lei Garden in Times Square. The texture of this pork, it's something you need to try at least once.

 

 

 

Met up with a friend who also came over the city, subsequently ate at Butao again. Oh yes.

 

 

 

Breakfast snack, Taro pancakes on Granville. Never seem to catch Take5 open.

 

 

 

Last meal of the trip was lunch at Mochi Cafe (around 100m from Butao) Handmade udon, literal melt in your mouth pork.

 

 

 

Couple shot digestif. Oobanyaki from the Cha Cha Sweet House in Harbor City.

Tracking back through old photos of Siem Reap.

 

 

Il Forno probably serves some of the best Italian food this side of the hemisphere. Northern Italian owners live in the house upstairs.

 

That day's special, two rings of roasted pork belly on roast pumpkin.

 

 

 

The pizza was also a big revelation. It was that bread/crust and spicy olive oil they encourage people to douse it in.

 

 

 

Second day lunch at Viroth's. Local haunt / best place to go for local / regional favorites. (ie. Tom Yum)

 

 

Laab (Laos) spiced minced pork, served room temperature with fresh mint leaves. Damn.

 

 

 

Grilled Lobster. Mm, brains. 

 

 

 

Abacus for the best burger in the middle of nowhere. Leave it to dem French.

Sublime street food. Rice cooked over fire in bamboo x varying amounts of coconut, coconut milk, soy bean and soy milk, 

 

 

 

Lunch spread at The Indian. Menu tagline reads 'Mild curries available'.

 

 

 

Hosohappy.

 

 

 

Back at Il Forno for a pre-departure spread of cheese, charcuterie and honey. 

 

 

 

Proper Carbonara = egg, pancetta, cheese. 

 

 

 

Moar of that pizza.

 

 

 

Hocus bonus.

57 cents for 2 pacific saury / sanma (frozen)  how i chose to do it:

 

1. remove scales, guts, wash cavity, pat fish dry

2. line foil/tray with coconut oil

3. rub lemon/pepper seasoning in cavity

4. sprinkle sea salt, cayenne/black pepper on both sides

5. turn on broil (low), wait a few minutes

6. broil first side 3-4 minutes

7. take out, flip, broil 1-2 minutes more

8. remove. lightly add condiments; lime, sesame oil, sweet soy

 

 

wish i had a wire rack to directly cook on. it doesn't really need the sesame oil or the sweet soy as it is nice and meaty. yours will also look better (straight) if you don't cut it open to remove its guts. but then that area will be bitter and shit
