Salad of microgreens (red oak, frisee, mache, daikon sprouts) and paper-thin slivers of raw sea scallops with a basil foam.
Pomme fondant (tourne Yukon Gold potatoes cooked in stock and glazed with butter) in a bowl of cool buttermilk and topped with lentils mixed with chopped bacon.
Slow roasted tomatoes with braised lamb shanks, chipotle, cumin etc .
Celery root slaw with simple mayonaisse and key lime.
Leek and Swiss chard soup (chicken broth) with large garlicky croutons.
Sounds like a beautiful dinner Jinmyo(particularly attacted to the potatoes).

Here's the recipe from the other thread, Seth.
Cranberry Carrot relish
I used fresh cranberries with a little water over them to cook them in(before I think I used a little marsala as well). Sprinkle with sugar to taste, let it reduce a little. Toss in chopped baby carrots(so the size of the pieces is round and similar to the cranberries) and cook until carrots are done. Comes out very pretty with vibrant red and orange, each brings out the taste of the other; quick, simple and just the vibrant flavors of the cranberry and carrot.

Cranberry carrot relish
Recipe please? I have never seen that combo before and it sounds interesting.
And while you're at it, post a link to it in this thread.
Actually nothing to it. I think I may have made it once before but I just thought it would be interesting. I used fresh cranberries with a little water over them to cook them in(before I think I used a little marsala as well). Sprinkle with sugar to taste, let it reduce a little. Toss in chopped baby carrots(so the size of the pieces is round and similar to the cranberries) and cook until carrots are done.

Last evening, salt bagels made by me, split, toasted.
I made bagels a few days ago.
Did you boil/poach them? Or just give them an egg wash?
A little late here, but last Thursday I made a Beef Carbonnade (served Friday).
Yesterday I made grouper fillets, poached in beurre monte. While that was cooking, I made a coulis of shallot, carrot, ginger and chicken stock (should have had lobster stock
). Brought that up to a boil with some heavy cream. Threw in some butter (should have had lobster butter 
). Finished with a squeeze of lemon.Served over some wilted baby greens.
Hey Nero we should have gotten together! I have the lobster stock but I haven't had the time to be able to use it all. I was going to do it today but I had to go out so I didn't cook. And I was feeling kind of punk digestively.

I've been there a lot. It is true that the plates are busy but that is in keeping with the psychedelic nature of the place. It is nicely funky and laid back with Joel always trying to explore different things. That description of him writing down all the eGullet info sounds like what I have observed of him.
I am fond of their "bread" selection- a mixture of fresh vegetables, vegetable chips and foccacia with a very nice dipping sauce. I also like their veal with merlot sauce.

Been a couple of years but I've eaten at Passage to India and was outrageously good with a taste that lingers long after in a favorable way in my memory.

It's probably just wishful thinking to expect anything juicy (other than the pork
). It has been my experience meeting other eGulleteers live that this bunch, for all our talk, would make a boy scout meeting look like an orgy.Oh, maybe that's a bad analogy. But you know what I mean. eGullet is good folks. Mostly.
Besides tommy was not there was he?

This being the Columbus Day weekend, it was the last opportunity for me to visit one of my favorite lobster places. So I did a quick drive around the corner (about two hours and 45 minutes to Noank, Connecticut, from Joisey), to bag a few lobsters. Abbott's is open from May to Columbus Day. It's a lobster joint with picnic tables on the water near Mystic. They have some other seafood, chowder, lobster rolls and things but the only thing I care for are the lobsters. These things are so incredibly sweet. In combination with some truly great drawn butter, they are an orgiastic delight. I was bringing some back to Jersey for dinner, so basically I ate really quickly, bought my other lobsters and steamers to take home and got back on the road for home.
I then brought them back to my friends' house for dinner where we steamed them up and served with corn and coleslaw. Lobster spray flying everywhere as we cracked our way through the feast. Josh was completely covered in lobster schmutz.
My friends then cooked up the shells for some stock(some of which I got to cart home).
This lobster,

Yeah, Topps Burgers, gnawed it right out of the box(See PMS, Cravings thread)....
Naah, I admit to actually cooking it a bit. Just meant not fresh ground meat.

Didn't cook for the family, so:
Frozen burger with American cheese, tomato on white bread.

Thanks everyone for the ideas. I will probably try the poaching next time.

Last night, I made a nice duck a l'orange. Only problem was the skin was not crisp. I had taken the cover off in the last hour and turned up the heat, had brined it for about 45 minutes beforehand, buttered the skin.
What can I do to get it crispy(Apart from the bicycle pump)?

Butternut Squash Soup served in a French pumpkin(more round than tall, perfect soup tureen). I have a picture but unfortunately don't have the ability to put it up now. But it comes out looking great and tasting marvelous. Recipe for the soup was Epicurious I believe.
One year I also tried to cook what probably would have been cooked for the First Thanksgiving. Which in addition to turkey, corn and beans would have been seafood such as clams and lobsters.
In those times, the lobsters were all over the beaches in Massachusetts and I read a story about a four foot lobster being found in the mid 1800's. Used to be also in the late 1800's it was against the law to serve prisoners in jail lobster more than three times a week because it was considered cruel and unusual punishment.
Ah, how times have changed.

Hi, I'm the eGulleteer who started the Gateau a la Broche thread if you recall. I read that you got it. Wasn't it wonderful? I have spent a lot of time around Lourdes and the surrounding environs such as Gavarnie.
I don't have your book, but I was wondering what you favorite food(s) of that region are. I also enjoy the country style there and the heartiness of the ingedients. The tarts of the area, the bread and the cheeses.
Thanks, Paula for answering our questions.

Pleasant to know somebody's paying attention, anyhow.
For me, it's triple-creme cheese. Brie, Camembert...you name it, I'll set it on a piece of good fresh bread, drink a nice round red with it, and eat grapes.
(Peeling the grapes is nice, depending on how cute the peeler is...I sometimes experience major raging horniness at or just before That Time. Been quite a while since I actually yowled at the moon or rubbed up on lampposts, but, umm, you get the general idea.
) Concur - Mashed taters with lots of butter, cheeseburgers, Cary Grant and yes I become a major horndog right before. On the other hand, I'm probably just a horndog all the time.

Dark chocolate
Oreos
Coca Cola
fried things
all manner of carby things as tryska noted.
Of course if one has bad PMS the restriction of straight sugar carby things is generally best. However, my thesis is that dark chocolate(in limited quantities of course no more than two pounds at any given time) is helpful particularly at that time because of the greater need for seratonin, which is also present in meat. That's why your body is craving it.

all forms of carby goodness.
usually i alternate between sour cream and onion pringles, and chocolate and candy. it's bad. i also want to sleep in and not move off the couch.
wierdest thing is come the morning of P-day, i wake up craving salad and freeweight squats. i also wake up bright-eyed and perky at 5am.
Do you also feel lighter like maybe you have less water weight and you can move better on that day than the prior days?
