Lunch today, super simple like usual. Love salmon skin.

Not relevant, maybe you know but I discovered the best app (for me) for shopping list. Bring! is called. Love it!

1kg yellow tail snapper was all gone, broccoli, eggplants, some ciabatta rubbed with garlic to eat with anchovies, some bruschetta

I would really like to be in Bonvivant shoes right now, wouldn’t mind a pastel with my coffee as well. But today’s salad hit the spot. I love bitter flavours

Thank you @Margaret Pilgrim! I will show lovely words to them, as a reminder for when they complain about food!

Noodles for kids, Chinese cucumber chicken salad with a good dose of sesame oil, stir-fried Napa cabbage

I loveeeee Portugal! It’s so affordable and food is so good. Late lunch as usual. 10 minutes meal really, time to cook the cod😁

we also get the almond croissant

Kids dinner: duck legs, potatoes, zucchini, green beans, olives and cornichons. Later we had scallops and kids leftovers 😁

It’s a treccia (trecce plural), braided mozzarella. Braided mozzarella are very typical in my part of Italy. This mozzarella is made locally here in Florida, I was going to say: I bet the makers are from Puglia and in fact, here I found it. It’s one of the best mozzarella I ate in the US, their burrata is also very good! Saying it someone from Puglia.

Today earlier lunch

Still one ribeye in the fridge, eggplants and mushrooms, some baos for my son, my daughter had noodles earlier, she was starving after tennis practice

I am eating my meals later and later, I think I can move to Spain no problem 😁

Lately I am not having breakfast but this morning I was hungry, so I had frittata with some tartufo langhe oil, shaved parmigiano, jamon, rucola and roasted cherry tomatoes

Tagliatelle with ragù, some crudités for the kids, coppa serrana, chorizo and tacos (tacos=ends of Jamon cut in cubes) for husband. Salmon and salad for me.

Cod again. With peppers, roasted tomatoes from yesterday, some olives and scallions.

I made again Chinese roast but used some as filling for baos. Again Andrea Nguyen recipe. More center cut ribeye and picanha, roasted cherry tomatoes and grilled Belgian endive and zucchini

Today it was a Costco day, so we got some prime center cut ribeyes but I already defrosted some jumbo key west pink shrimps, so we had both. We have a store here, called Wild Fork Foods, just frozen. Paradise for proteins, we get shrimps there.

Pizza for the kids: no cheese for the boy, cheese for the girl. Picanha for us, with salad and some krauts (comparing Trader Joe’s and Cleveland Krauts). How much we miss the kimchi from our Korean veg shop in Brooklyn 😩

Variety, to make everybody happy

@dcarch That might be a solution, thanks!

Leftover ribeye, salad and two ovolini. Greek yogurt and kiwi for dessert

Yes, I am renting! As you can see I didn’t spend my morning cleaning my backsplash mirror. The only advantage I can see it’s that I have an ocean view as I cook 🤣🤣🤣 obviously when it’s not covered in grease that I cannot see anything 😁😒

Yes! I deeply hate it! I call this a “kitchen for those how don’t cook” 🤬 I was actually going to ask help for keeping it clean. I use detergent soap first and then windex but It’s impossible to keep it clean. I also cracked it!!! I was just warming up my cast iron grill. I thought the mirror would be heat resistant.

We had guests for dinner. Spanish charcuterie, Sullivan street bakery focaccia, ovolini, olives as appetizer. Grilled Belgian endives and radicchio, shiitake mushrooms and watercress , zucchini and green beans with ribeyes. Chiacchiere for dessert
