Shrimp fra diavolo on angel hair pasta, spiked with  with some bomba calabrese we brought back from Chianti, Italy.

This guy has kind of an annoying way about him, but does a good job walking you through the bomba prep.

[CantCookStillTry]

Twofer special tonight. Spinach & Ricotta Eggs with hot sauce for big m. 

 

And my 'you'lleatmorevegesifitkillsme' meat sauce with pasta for little m. 

Before the meat is added, finely processed mushroom, carrot, courgette, kale and capsicum. 

 

 

Cooking after addition of ground meat, tomatoes etc (and a we're going to need a bigger boat moment ). Not the most attractive meat sauce, but it does its job.

Big bowl in my attempt to cure my husband from his illness.  Brown rice, sesame-ginger-garlic salmon, carrots, scallions, bean sprouts, cilantro and mint, cabbage, peanuts, chiles, ginger dressing.  From the cookbook Bowls of Plenty that I bought on a whim recently.

SO colourful and fresh. It would certainly cure me of anything I might have! Hope it did the trick with your hubby!

I arrived at Tokyo just before 23.00h for essentially half a day stay and one meeting in the morning. Figuring that there would be no Japanese food for me the next day (except for the lounge) I headed out at midnight directly after arriving at the hotel. Luckily, a couple of blocks down the road there was an amusement quarter, still filled with drunken salary men. Fighting my way through the "massage" offers and bouncers for the various night clubs, I saw a pink neon sign in a side alley announcing "Motsuyaki" (grilled intestines).

The place was full of very happy salary men enjoying the food, so I decided to join them. The menu was extensive and I opted for poached beef tongue with yuzu-kushu, medium-rare grilled chicken livers, horse meat sashimi and "ham kotsu", or sweet ham schnitzels. With all you can eat raw cabbage and copious amounts of draft beer a truly fine meal ...

 

And afterwards, the famous "one cup" sake (from the convenience store, of course), cooled on the remaining ice from Mondays blizzard. Downtown Tokyo at 1.40h in the morning ... no place I'd rather be

@Dejah I will be the first to admit, I'm surprised you ran a Chinese restaurant and even more surprised you're Asian!

 

The food looks absolutely amazing.

@Kim Shook Thank you for the birthday wish for hubby.
@Smokeydoke: Yup, 100% Chinese. The Chinese restaurant was a family biz (1972) that I took over in 1992 for 10 years even though I swore as a teenager working in it to NEVER be in the restaurant biz.
Loved it for the 10 years, retired, then went back teaching.
I DID learn a lot about cooking. Now, I do a variety of cooking, sometimes very traditional Chinese, sometimes Canadian Chinese, and often, exploring other cuisine.

Tonight, a simple oven baked low-carb coconut chicken, Lemon Parmesan Green Beans, and Shirataki Fettuccini noodles with Alfredo sauce and fresh green peppercorns.

I liked this very, very much though speaking hypothetically I'd have to be rather drunk to bring myself to actually taste this stuff.  (Kidney pie comes to mind from the UK.)

 

Not sure why these dishes bother me as I'm from Philadelphia, home of scrapple (cornmeal and pig offal...perhaps offal is a euphemism) and pepper pot (intestine stew).

 

[liuzhou]

Tonight,  I made myself some chicken wraps/rolls.

 

 

De-boned three legs (it was a mutant chicken I guess)  and marinated the meat with garlic, ginger, chilli and Shaoxing wine and Thai fish sauce. Fried and finished with a little oyster sauce to glaze.

 

Wrapped with lettuce, cucumber, scallion and coriander leaf. I ate four.
