Crepes, confiture, cafe lungo. The confiture from a favorite place, and so delicious. I recently ordered way too much of the stuff, but when you see all the varieties, it's hard to stop...https://lachambreauxconfitures.com/en/

Tried a new-ish sushi place last night. It's a few minutes walk away. Significant Eater enjoyed this chirashi, while I opted for a few a la carte items, including a very good black cod roll. And a fair bit of sake.

Great, and troubled, chef!

No, I haven't. Should I?

I like the Arcimboldo on the wall behind you.

Pretty sure that one was Jim's! Which was also quite good!

Steve’s! That was the one I couldn’t remember, but I now remember having a couple of good ones there!

Caviar and crepes.

C'mon they made up for it in the final two minutes, when they couldn't keep their flags in their pockets!

All I know is that if I had an outdoors, I'd probably be in trouble spending a lot of $$.

You probably use different crab, however. Just as lettuce does not belong on a lobster roll, celery has no place in a crab cake.

I'm surprised bars don't keep some local stuff on their shelves...https://www.nicks.com.au/products/maidenii-dry-vermouth-750ml-34211

All that matters is that you liked them! We like Pat's, Geno's, Tony Luke's and a few others. How do they arrive from Goldbelly; are they frozen?

Like how much does Noilly Prat cost there? I don't understand how a cocktail bar doesn't have dry vermouth in their well or on a shelf.

I like to use beurre manié for certain sauces. It's easy enough to have a bit nearby, if and when it's needed.

Pretty classic.

stick to cricket, bro.

Both? Thanks!

My older T shirts become newer aprons. I still have aprons I bought for cooking school; they’re approaching middle age!

The Pats were some of the best cheaters the NFL has ever known. Belicheat Belicheck, Brady both caught and the NFL basically shrugged. Let's not even talk about Kraft, and his association with some of the worst humans the planet has known (Epstein et al.). The short-attention span game. When the D takes over, it's not as much fun as seeing QBs and WRs run around freely with barely a hand laid on them.

That's what's called, in football parlance, defense. As opposed to the game now, where the rule changes have all but obliterated the ability of a great defense to crush the quarterback and receivers.

That's a nice assortment of beans; and no extraneous crap like lentils or quinoa!!

Yes - this was a real snoozer... Stick to hockey, bro.

You mean the cheaters? My guess is you’ll be waiting a while.
