Ventured out to this year's candy show. Smaller than pre-covid but kinda local so easy to get to and attend.

 

Attending the Artisan Ganache seminar.

Prototype 3d chocolate printer. Currently works with compound chocolate; they are planning to make one that works with chocolate.  For chocolate printing they think they will need cooling and an enclosure.

And some sample prints.

Brunch this morning at a cool cinema / restaurant / distillery. I had the sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit.

Say hi to the boys from Rodney and I. We often did trade shows next to them - we'd temper their kettles so when they ran their pretzels they would look better!

Will do! I talked to them today about their new / non-light bulb heated little dipper.

Picked up some pastries from Barberet. Wanted to eat in their bistro but it is closed today.

Pistachio eclair and their coco bomb (dacquoise, mango-coconut mousse, guava gel center).

Nice venue - PMCA is there. You need to visit with Lancaster Mike while you are there!

Will plan for that next time. I had forgotten about Lancaster Mike.

 

Do you have and restaurant recommendations?

There was a great Bahn Mi place - you'll have to go back into the PMCA threads to find the name.

Looking back at a couple of them - looks like it's call Rice and Noodles. 

Oh yes. I so wished we could have stayed a little longer so we could have returned for a second meal there!

Seeing this place - which may have been the one I was actually thinking of (noticed a picture of the placemats!) - Saigon Cafe - doesn't look like it's open Monday though. 

No worries.  I can get bahn mi and Bánh xèo in Northern Virginia. I still might try an open Vietnamese or Korean restaurant for lunch tomorrow. Lots of options in Lancaster even though a lot of places are closed Sundays and Mondays. Mainly I plan to avoid eating at a hotel restaurant. Will have fun looking thru the links you posted.

Dinner tonight was at Cabalar Meat Co. I had their steakhouse burger with a local cider.

https://www.cabalarmeatco.com/

 

They had a beautiful case of dry aged beef and a cooler of offal and other interesting cuts. May have to come back and visit their butcher shop.

now that's a serious selection of aged Meat !

 

I would have found the price interesting , but for no other reason.

 

those burgers certainly have a selection of toppings .

 

I probably would have starved to death as I would not have

 

had enough time to decide what my selection was .

 

tasty any way Id bet.

Very tasty. And I too was impressed by the aged beef. Perhaps better not to know the price. You know that old saying, if you have to ask how much, it's too expensive for you.  😉
