Bagel and "lox." Half the bagel with cream cheese, half with avocado. The tomato is an heirloom, purchased in a two-pack from Trader Joe's, and not bad.

Well...yeah...!!! You probably even drove there!! Stir-fried pork with Szechuan flavors. Can one use too much ginger?

They have 3 or 4 different varieties of Za'atar - I like the Lebanese stuff, but it is definitely different than what you had from Israel, and what a friend brought back for me from Israel. I usually use it to make pita crisps, or to sprinkle on hummus or yogurt.

Yep, they undoubtedly help. My haul: Mostly small sizes, so I can see what we like and we don't. Not shown, a "fresh" product which I learned I really don't like: Turkish delight.

I made it up to Kalustyan's today to stock up on various peppercorns. Just to bring it to others in pictures, here is one aisle... Took me 1/2 hour to find the za'atar.

Well, maybe this had something to do with it... So, after a nice passeggiata, we ended up at an old favorite: For drinks and mostly snacks, including these: Salt cod croquetas, which were fantastic last night. Louisiana white prawns, fried squid and French fries (some of the best in the city, imho) were also consumed.

Ever suffer from Culinary Ennui? If so, what do you do?

My parents lived in Delray, and Total Wine always got a visit. There was generally something interesting to see. Wonder if there will be a batch 02?

That's a really excellent beer from Maine!

Definitely on a menu (or as, as I don't see it on their menu now)...https://punchdrink.com/recipes/shuck-n-jive/ To me, a waste of perfectly good sherry and vermouth, and as far as the vodka goes, who cares? You know, it gets to the point where some of this shit is just silly.
-
Okay, and sorry, but this sounds absolutely disgusting. Do you ever get over to the restaurant at the airport, Hangar B? Or have you posted about it before (I guess it's mostly breakfast)?
-
In general on a menu, I think quotes mean that the item on the menu isn't exactly what it reads like it should be. In this case, maybe the "fries" are like @liamsaunt's guotes around "chips" that came with the fish and chips pictured above; that is, smashed and fried fingerlings, if that makes any sense. I did get an update today; still awaiting a permit or two and hoping for the official opening on June 18th.

Look what you made me do (though not quite as pretty as that one above): Jumbo lump, however... And we each ate one of these as well: With tzatziki.

I've dined at one of the Hawksmoor locations in London (for Sunday roast), as well as the NYC location a number of times. Fun restaurants.

Are your friends as multi-cultural as you are, vis-a-vis the foods they like. Seems likely that they will consume anything you bring, but do any of them cook as you do?

That Susquehanna delta is pretty awesome! Marcella's Penne col Sugo di Funghi Coltivati. Okay, it's Penne with Mushroom Sauce, a dish I've been cooking ever since I bought the book it's in - which looks like 1987. The book is not in great shape; the recipes still are.

If you can eat this, you can have some pasta! He just doesn't like the name. Call it something else, and you never know...

One of these looks as if it's made by the students who don't graduate, the other looks like it's made by people who...know what they are doing. Where do these take place?

I have, and use, that Israeli feta for years now. It's quite good. And I've always loved Bulgarian feta, but this Israeli is right across the street. Pretty tasty dip here...https://www.seriouseats.com/whipped-feta-dip

My money is on the St. Michel.

I would never order any burger with any sort of bleu cheese, though I suppose people like it (just not me). At one of their sister restaurants (Cervo's), they offer a lamb burger, with the potential to add anchovies.

We've kind of settled into a pattern of going out to dinner on Friday nights (and theoretically one or two other nights during the week, but you never know). On Friday, we went to one of our local favorites (like within a 10 minute walk), Eel Bar. This was a tough, fantastic menu to choose from and there are no food pix. We had fried black bass, potato salad, Montauk scallops, stuffed quail, and the Bomba rice with soft shells. As the inimitable @Duvel might say - no complaints! We then walked down the block to Cafe Katja for chocolate cake mit schlag, and schnapps. Saturday night I cook... Roasted duck legs and duck fat roasted potatoes. A big salad accompanied. Once again, no complaints. Oh - let me edit and add - you can see lots of Eel Bar food at their IG account here...https://www.instagram.com/eelbarnyc/

I believe Kelly Fields will be doing desserts at Ladyslipper.
