@Anna N – re: kimchi pancake.  I have a question about your batter.  It looks so crisp.  I wouldn’t eat kimchi, but your pancake looks very similar to a  Vietnamese Pancake, which I love and have a hard time finding since our favorite Vietnamese restaurant closed.  How do you make your batter?  I’m thinking that I could stuff one with pork, shrimp, and bean sprouts and see if it works

 No, Kim this is not what you want at all. This is what you want! And you should be able to get it in your Asian store.

@kayb– we would never go out to brunch after church if we knew there was a meal like those beans, corncakes, and potato salad waiting for us at home.  I think I’ve said it before, but I’m not a big potato salad person (I think that I just flat don’t like cold potatoes – other than raw ones😁), and that yours is one of the few that I look at and am truly tempted!

 

 

Truth? My preference is to eat potato salad when it's still warm from cooking the potatoes. I don't like it nearly as much when it's cold.

I believe that this is not the first time that the three of us have confessed to a shared odd preference.  

Me four! Cold potato salad is tasteless to me

I wish I had Bonvivant crevette gris on my plate and some bulots too if possible 😁 but I had do with some key west pink shrimp, salad and a frittata.

 

I like yours, too!

 

Will this do? (Common shrimp around my parts)

 The  lengths  some people will go to just to be different. Tender crisp green beans dressed with kimchi cream and served with two almost perfect 6 1/2 minute eggs.

Grilled Pork Banh Mi at The Point in Palacios

 

Damn that looks good.   The texture on that bread looks very reminiscent to what I saw all over Saigon... too bad nothing like it exists anywhere in NYC (at least anywhere I've tried - I'm always open to suggestions!)

on the R :  broad rice noodle w duck ,  Lime leaf and peppercorn.  hot  I love Thai food , and this seems far better than decent

 

and they have Duck !

 

superb food.  Im sure the LunchLadies dwouild not have too much trouble in the GTA getting = or better

 

long commute for me for take-out.

 

its at the other end of my town , and the food is superb.

 

its in a nowhere tiny strip maul , and I discovered it

 

as it had take over a Chinese restaurant that seems to have given up the ghost.

 

the food is unusually good for any Thai restaurant , esp in the suburbs.  very smaall

 

4 tables , and no beer license , so after the first superb lunch I and there , I take-out 

 

and have a very very cold Hoponius Union or 2 , in a Fz glass

 

I decided to pass out menu's at Tj's, the Library , the FireHouse , and P{olive station 

 

Im going to die if this place does not survive.  very pleasant staff ( one person )

 

and there has always been people from Thailand coming in or eating their on my trips.

Ok, I had to look up all three of those words.  😁  Looks so good!

 

@Anna N - when you say 6 1/2 minute eggs, are you boiling or steaming them or what?  Because that is exactly what I'd like my eggs to look like!

 

@BonVivant - dear Lord, those figs.  I think I lost consciousness for a minute.  Just absolutely gorgeous (the food and your photography) and delicious looking.

 

Roast beef with muenster and horseradish cream, turkey with lettuce and mayo and my favorite skinny little pretzel sticks that are so hard to find:
