  1. egg, chicken sausage, and cheese on English muffin
  2. Corn and cherry tomato tart. I am not a good crust maker as you can see. A slice with some eggplant fries and salad
  3. Last night, a very large sandwich. It had roasted mushrooms, roasted tomatoes, eggs, bacon, provolone, and greens on a garlic foccacia This is a four-serving sandwich. Slice:
  4. Last night: farfalle with raw tomato, garlic and basil sauce, and fresh mozzarella. Garlic toast.
  5. Summer squash frittata and ripe tomato slices
  6. Sandwich with the pickled eggplant from the "what are you preserving" thread, tomatoes, greens, and provolone cheese.
  7. @Shelby I love silver queen corn and have not had it in years....people don't grow it around here anymore. Too bad, I love the not so sweet and crisp shatter of the small kernels of Silver Queen corn. Cedar planked bluefish (today's fish share offering), great local tomatoes, and local corn that I now wish was silver queen.
  8. Tomatoes on toast
  9. Vegetable stew made with what I could salvage out of my fridge: a zucchini, some scallions, a couple of ears of corn and some cherry tomatoes, basil, some tomato puree from the freezer and a couple of poached eggs. The toast has garlic butter on it. I really need to go food shopping.
  10. Another recipe from Made in India: Fresh spinach with paneer. Very tasty. I served it with some naan. No photo of that because it was just the store-bought stuff.
  11. Last meal. Early lunch at Jasmine. Restaurant view Mahi sandwich with guacamole Bermuda codfish sandwich with curry sauce and avocado on hot cross bun The end
  12. A morning spent hiking around and up to the top of a lighthouse earned us a nice lunch. Lighthouse view We walked over to a nearby hotel for lunch. The Reefs Drinks, because hiking earns drinks in my world Conch fritters Snapper sandwich Mahi tacos View from our table Dinner was a return to the Ocean Club Calamari Rockfish with banana Rockfish with lavender thyme lava salt Lobster Mini ice cream cones
  13. Ha that happened to us too, in 2011 I think. We were the last plane to land before the storm caused the airport to close. It was wild when we got up the next morning: our room faced the harbor and it did not seem like anything was happening. Then we went to the ocean side of the hotel and the wind and waves were crazy! Luckily the storm blew out quickly and the rest of our vacation was lovely. Light photos from yesterday. We walked on the beach trail down to my favorite beach, Warwick Long Bay, with the intention of coming back up on the road and having lunch at the South Shore Swizzle Inn. Unfortunately we ended up walking in the wrong direction and ended up back at our resort haha. Grilled shrimp wrap from the Beach Cabana: Dinner was at the Waterlot Inn, one of the oldest restaurants on the island. It's been around in some form or another since 1610. We shared a tart made of local Bermuda onions for our starter. For mains I got the fish sampler, which was tuna, salmon, and grouper. My husband had a waygu steak. This is an a la carte restaurant so for sides we shared some sautéed spinach and truffled mac and cheese. Too full for dessert, though they did give us some chocolate covered sea salt caramels. They are in the fridge for later. Everything was tasty but don't go here if you are on a budget. The bill was punishingly expensive.
  14. Yesterday breakfast was fruit and cottage cheese. Boring and no photo. Lunch was at the Cabana Grill, a wahoo sandwich on raisin bread with slaw and tartar sauce. Pretty decent, not as good as Art Mel's Spicy Dicy, but I am not getting over that way this trip. Pre-dinner snacks and drinks at the Dock at the Waterlot Inn. Cocktails are pricy at $16/each, but as you can tell from the photo they are large. Left is a Mango Lemon Press (Grey Goose, Malibu Mango, hand-pressed lemonade, fresh fruit) and right is a Burnt Jalepeno Margarita (Patron silver, charred jalepenos, crushed cucumbers, pressed lime) Nibbles plate of almonds, edamame, and olives. Nothing special Second cocktails are a Island Passion (kettle one citron, st. germaine, passion fruit falernum, orange, and pineapple) and a Molecular (grey goose citron, pomegranate cranberry, cointreau caviar) A flatbread with carmelized onion and goat cheese and some shrimp with brava sauce Live music and a nice sunset Dinner at the Newport Gastropub. They were out of everything we had planned to order. Oh well. A "plush ploughman" platter (prosciutto, gherkins, deviled eggs, pate, cheddar) and we shared a grouper sandwich Service is always harried here. It's probably my least favorite restaurant at the hotel, but fine for its purpose. Cup Match is over so we are venturing out to new places today
  15. I am in Bermuda now for a short trip and thought I would add my dining experiences here. The island is very crowded right now for Cup Match and reservations are a little tricky to come by at the more popular places. I should have planned better in advance as we got shut out of a couple of favorites. I do have reservations for each night but may change them around depending on what opens up. We'll be staying at or close to our hotel until the Match is over because buses and taxis are hard to come by (everyone is at the Match haha), and I refuse to rent a scooter after being dumped off the back of one too many times by my Dad as a teenager. We arrived yesterday, and are staying at the Southampton Princess for its proximity to the South Shore beaches that I love. Late afternoon snack while waiting for our room to be ready: That's pimiento cheese, spinach artichoke dip, and hummus from the Jasmine Lounge on property. Dinner was at the Ocean Club, an outdoor restaurant that is also on property. Red snapper seveche Tuna tartare Local fish trio (wahoo, snapper, tuna) Snapper in banana leaf with Thai chili sauce complimentary key lime pie Restaurant view
  16. 20 minute fish curry from Made in India. It took longer than 20 minutes to do all of the chopping, slicing, cooking etc. The flavors were nice though. The fish was hake from my fish share.
  17. fried chicken, mac and cheese, zucchini fritters, tomatoes
  18. Bumping this thread because the tomatoes have finally come in! Here is what I picked up at my Saturday farmer's market. I also got some swordfish steaks and soft pretzels but could not fit those in the picture. The ravioli is filled with spicy roasted peppers and goat cheese. The thin bottle is lemon flavored olive oil. I am using the cherry tomatoes, basil, wine, bread, swordfish, lettuce, and squash for today's group meal. The eggplant and onions are destined for a curry on Tuesday evening.
  19. I ended up choosing to make the pistachio and yogurt chicken curry. It was very nice. My husband thought that because of the richness of the sauce, he would like it even more in winter. If I make it again I would go heavier on the chopped pistachio garnish (the pantry was low on pistachios). I added cilantro because I like it, and served the curry with rice and naan. As for other recipes, I have not cooked much from the book yet, but have made and really enjoyed the coconut fish curry and the green beans with mustard seeds and ginger. The vegetable curries sound especially appealing to me so I am guessing I'll be cooking from that section of the book for a while next.
  20. cedar planked salmon with a sour cream, yogurt, onion, parsley and lemon sauce, arugula salad and zucchini-feta fritters I want to make one of the chicken curries from Made in India this evening. If anyone has the book and has cooked any of the chicken curries, I am trying to decide between making the creamy fig curry, the pistachio yogurt curry, and the Mum's chicken curry. Any opinions welcome. (I'll also check the cookbook subforum for any input)
  21. sole stuffed with spinach with a white wine-garlic-lemon sauce, cherry tomato gratin, and roasted potatoes
  22. Yesterday for family meal I made two bowl recipes that appeared in the latest issue of Fine Cooking Magazine. The tuscan bowl (grilled chicken, roasted broccolini, escarole, tomatoes, farro, crispy garlic chips, pesto, balsamic glaze) and the sushi bowl (seared rare tuna, edamame, blanched baby bok choy, rice, black sesame seeds, wakame, pickled ginger, mirin drizzle).
  23. Black pepper fettuccini with clams, corn, tomatoes, bacon, and basil. Everything was procured from my weekend farmer's market.
  24. Spicy-sweet Thai chili chicken with rice
