What are you Eating/Drinking?

Had a glass of this nice Japanese blended whisky tonight.

 

[Mikey]

My godbrother Jeff and his gf are holidaying in Kobe, Japan.

 

[Imbissbrunto]

Had this…interesting…looking almond croissant today. It was really good, though.

Didn't feel like cooking tonight, so I went for a turkey sandwich on whole-grain bread with brie, romaine, red onion, and honeycrisp apple.

Actually, I'm on the salad-below-the-patty team. Carl's Junior and Chili's (and others) do this.

I've eliminated gluten from my diet and have been trying different flavors for the past two weeks. I was actually consuming too much dough and flour products. They were causing unnecessary bloating. I feel much more comfortable in the evenings now.

Me too. Keeps the bun from getting soggy. But the burger was so dry it didn’t matter. I didn’t realize they had served it upside down and I placed things also upside down. In the end, didn’t care.

I wonder how that tasted. Just curious.

I wonder how that tasted. Just curious.

I‘d say relatively mild (like most Japanese whiskies), floral and sweet with a relatively prominent grain taste.

Wow, that looks good there mate!!

 

[Mikey]

Stir fried beef and chicken with peppers.

 

[Chris30]

For dinner, we're having turkey subs with lettuce and onions. And some Lay's Simply potato chips. We might skip dessert tonight depending on how full we get.

Damn, these boxes are hard to photograph. But it's a giant Toblerone with added orange peel.

 

[Nacho Libre]

Simple breakfast of one slightly burned and buttered pancake, grapes and two slices of turkey breast ham.

turkey breast ham

 

[Nacho Libre]

Ok it sounds weird, it's processed turkey meat that resembles ham, and here it's labeled either as breast or leg "ham".

 

[Imbissbrunto]

Cheers!

The doctor told me to eat Mediterranean because I have high triglycerides, so I gave it a go. Lemon shrimp with veggies, couscous, chickpea and olive salad, and zucchini fritters.

Yeah, I bet you had a time trying to get it straight! Anyways I ate some waffles, pancakes and hash browns for breakfast and my mom ate some oatmeal, grits, waffles and 2 bananas.

That is a rather non-traditional Mexican "sope": A thick tortilla, usually fried in lard, covered with a spread of black fried beans, crispy fried bacon strips, cream and cheddar cheeses, and a fresh Serrano pepper/tomato sauce prepared in a stone mortar... which is really HOT.

Its been a moment since I've even posted on here, but it looks like folks have been cooking up some good looking foods.

That said, I've had a few moments in the kitchen since I've been away: last weekend I made brined garlic roasted chicken breast with asparagus and mushooms and a spinach - asparagus pan sauce that had lots of seasonings and garlic.

Then here's a cheesy, green-oniony egg I made resembling a Tamago Sando.

Then a chorizo sausage egg and cheese sandwich I made some time ago:

I made a Thai green curry for my Mum and I using the 'kit' above, and it was pretty good.

I marinaded the chicken in lemon juice and garlic first, and added par-boiled new potatoes and green beans, and served it with basmati rice and some fresh basil leaves.

It was much better than my first attempt last week (I always do a trial run before cooking for my family), and it paid off - this was so much nicer, even though it was a 'cheat' kit and practically impossible to screw up.

I'm very grateful for the fact that my appetite is still fully intact, despite my recent cancer diagnosis - and hence why I am keen to have proper family meals while I still can before my treatment starts, which could be very soon.

So last night I made Chicken, Chorizo & Chickpea stew and had the leftover for lunch today.

Had some Red Leicester bread from M&S Bakery too, so a few small slices of that to mop up.

All while doing roast beef for Sunday evening meal later today.

 

[Imbissbrunto]

I’ve just had a steak with potatoes and broccoli for dinner. The steak was absolutely delicious! I‘m always willing to spend a bit more money on meat if that means it’s a high quality cut.

 

[Joey D]

Ginger teriyaki chicken thighs and I tried my hand at making okonomiyaki, which didn't really looks like how it should but tasted great with some miso BBQ sauce on it.

 

[Nacho Libre]

Oreo cheesecake for dessert today.

Breakside Brewing in Portland, OR makes some amazing beer.
This is a new West Coast IPA from them that I’ve never had. Found it at the local butcher!

Appearance: very light colored straw. However, it’s not translucent. I cannot see through it.

Aroma: pure west coast IPA. Piney, citrusy, spicy honey.

Taste: magic on the palate. Piney but not resinous. Crisp and floral. The longer it lingers the more the IBUs (international bittering units) come out.
Pleasant but far from a palate wrecker.

Overall: 4.2 out of 5.
It’s a really well done West Coast IPA
