What's that you're eating?

[David Mary]

I don’t always snack at work. But when I do it’s after hand sanding the easier materials and before hand sanding the annoying nightmarecarta and osage orange.

Some crazy maki

Toro, regular tuna, pickled daikon, and shiso


Tuna, salmon, yellowtail, kani, shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, avocado, cucumber, and masago


"Steak and Eggs," aka wagyu and caviar. Unfortunately the wagyu was very oversalted.

Went to the local bbq place Thursday and got a chopped cheese sandwich, and for some reason they gave me a half rack of ribs on the house. Had them for dinner tonight.

Heh, we had salmon but it was a little less...fresh... than what you people posted.

The wife will only eat salmon if it's breaded and fried (or baked, in this case). I prefer it roasted with a miso glaze. The oldest kid loves salmon whichever way she can get it, but it's hard for her to pass on anything crunchy she can dip in ketchup. Sacrilege, I know. So we compromised:

Also made a double batch of these seasoned oyster crackers. Oyster crackers mixed with oil, dry ranch dressing mix, lemon pepper, and dried dill. They stay surprisingly crisp despite the oil. Growing up, these were a coveted snack as my mom only made them for special occasions and my siblings/cousins would fight over them. Now I get to make them whenever I want. They're a perfect snack to pair with a cold beer.

Did anyone else grow up eating these?

Had dinner with some friends in Philadelphia, at a restaurant called Kalaya. This is the best Thai food I've ever had!

Duck laab salad, whole steamed branzino in lime sauce, crab curry, chicken curry with turmeric rice, goat and lamb curry, grilled cabbage, mustard greens, pork belly, and various accouterments.

Smoked pork butt. Bark turned out fantastic after about 12 hours on the smoker.

Catching up with a few more meals . . .

A huge braised oxtail with bok choy, shitaki mushrooms & soy beans . . .

A BLT with Onion Rings & a pint of Pliny . . .

A full rack of BBQ pork ribs with a side order of Mac & Cheese and Sweet Potato Tots:

An order of Ankimo (Monk Fish Liver) with a glass of Saporro . . .

And 3 orders of sushi -- Amaebi, Saba & Otoro . . .

That presentation is gorgeous. Particularly the fish. I'll have to add that to my list of places to go to next time I'm in Philadelphia.

Today was a lobster roll today. I've eaten my fair share (and then some) all over New England, but the InishShor may be among the best. The lobster was cooked to perfection and was very sweet. Their fries were great. The biggest surpise was the clam strips I ordered. They were awesome.

Lobster Roll with Newburgh sauce.

The Dublin Lawyer. Basically a cheesesteak with lobster.

Tried to make some Chinese styled food for dinner. Mongolian beef and teriyaki chicken stir fry.

Yes, my gram made them on special occasions, especially when we caught fresh salmon, it brings back so many memories of the good times eating back then. Ate them like popcorn

Nothing can duplicate the smell and taste of the old stove, her old cast iron cooking pans, real bacon grease, mixed with a cut potato, my gramps cutting pork belly at the kitchen table, all old fashioned and simple , but so delicious, and all you could eat!!

It’s a smell and taste I will NEVER forget , nor can replicate. However just talking about it just makes me drool

Thank you brother for the memories

That looks spectacular, and the crust is absolutely perfect looking, A+
