Showing my wife how to make a proper aïoli.
Step 1) Gather mise en place (always)
Step 2) Post about it on the internet (always)
Step 3) Actually do the thing (if time allows after steps 1 and 2)

I don't want my beer watered down with warm water! 🍺
I've always solved that problem by drinking it faster 😂

Have been traveling so much for work I feel like I haven't even been able to kiss my wife, let alone cook for her.
Luckily tonight that changed. Homemade pappardalle and ragu with focaccia. She actually made both doughs, all I did was throw some stuff in a pot and let it simmer.

It was a big sandwich! Not ashamed to say I ate every bite.

Curried zuch, shrooms, radish, tomato, avocado, chevre and bacon

Grilled chicken sandwich with farmers cheese, roasted poblano, red pepper jelly and homemade bread. Couscous salad and fried potatoes. And since it's Father's Day, the Father of all craft beer.

It's pretty rare for me to eat meat these days. But when you are really hankering for a side of cow, ain't no cauliflower steak or grilled Portobello cap (but guys I swear they taste like the real thing!! Not.) Is gonna cut it.
Simple roasted veg, simple baked potato, seared strip w/ creamy mushroom sauce and a Central Coast Cab.

Pic does this zero justice but man was it tasty.
Rice, cauliflower steak, a ton of stewed veg, toasted pine nuts, scallion, French tarragon.

Late breakfast, but papa con rajas tacos with charred Guajillo salsa. Tasty!

Made some falafel tonight! With scallion tzatziki. Made pita as well but I suck at anything bread so they stayed perfectly 100% flat. So they became pita chips!

Some super basic and super Americanized but mighty delicious fried rice

This week sucked. So dinner needed to be easy and good for my soul.
So having leftover rice and beans, caramelized onions, and chile sauce took care of the easy part. And poached eggs took care of the good for my soul part. Because a runny yolk can cure a lot of ills.
Oh, and dinner on the table in less than 15 minutes?? Yeah, never gonna complain about that.

^^^ I can't unsee the dinosaur now
My wife absolutely loves broccoli, but hates the stalks. I absolutely hate wasting perfectly good food, so I have to get creative with how I use the large amounts of "off" pieces sometimes.
Tonight that resulted in some weird amalgam of a dish that was kind of burrito bowl-ish, kind of just random Mexican things on a plate. Charred broccoli stalk with rice, beans, chevre, jalapeno, and baby oregano and cilantro from our deck garden. Real tasty!

Oh man this thread is so my jam*
Processed some mixed marinated veg this weekend , basically marinated shrooms but I add roasted red peppers, asparagus, and onion, because that all seems delicious. No pic because I ran out of white vinegar and used cider vinegar so it is ugly as sin! But tastes fantastic still.
*pun intended

Avocado toast with asparagus and egg for me, ham/mushroom omelette (folded style because of pure laziness) for her.

At Cyrus, the recipe was 3:1 cream to buttermilk, left out for 36-48 hours, then refrigerated. In the colder months, we would bring the mixture up to 98 degrees before putting it into pint containers. Always perfect.

Brined pork tenderloin, mashed potatoes that even Joel Robuchon would be jealous of, and roasted asparagus & morels.

Thanks NS. Lots of places to research and think about. I appreciate it.

That said, having the last question be a guy proposing to his girlfriend was awfully gratuitous.
ROFL. Of all places, why a Bourdain event?

I think a kid I went to culinary school with works for you. Saw him on an episode as a waiter. He's easy to pick out b/c he always has enormous glasses on.

Alinea was just ranked #1 greatest restaurant in Chicago history by Chicago Magazine. Freaking incredible and very impressive, especially since they haven't been open 5 years yet. Congrats!

While I agree that Chicago-style pizza is not worth the effort, the city of Chicago is turning out some spectacular pizzas at places such as Spacca Napoli and Coalfire. We also have, according to Alan Rich, the best pizza in the country at Great Lake.
Nice! Did not know that. I have been gone for a while now, in Sonoma County. I'm moving back in the next few weeks and am excited about trying these pizza places and of course, the obligatory reservation at Alinea.

Blackbird is open for lunch. They dabble a little bit in those techniques, and it's a great opportunity to experience one of Chicago's best for less cash.
If it's the weekend, you could always head to Chinatown for some decent dim sum too. Living nearby San Francisco kind of spoiled me, but Chicago's dimsum is decent IMO.
I would avoid doing pizza, mostly b/c Chicago pizza sucks (blasphemy for someone raised an hour outside of it, I know). But Chicago has some incredible gyros, italian beef, and hot dogs too.
