Not so vegetarian friendly, perhaps.

But then, if you worry about being friendly with vegetarians it is but a short hop to wearing Birkenstocks.


Thats fancier than any poutine I ever had, and I will have to look into it. That place is actually quite close to where I work.

Non-lesbian vegetarian Birkenstock-wearing granola right here, man. Who likes black metal. :D

Well today we had a duck. Slathered in honey from our beed and slow roasted for 5 1/2 hours. One of our foie gras ducks so it weighed in at 4.5kg before cooking - although it shed a good 2 litres of fat during the process. matched this to braised red cabbage with pancetta, red onion and apple cooked in balsamic vinegar and cider with fennel seeds.
Also made an apple brown betty for dessert, but in retrospect this was utterly superfluous as we were all stuffed to bursting point after the duck. Something fresher like a fruit salad would have been much better.

You guys are ruining the stereotype. :wink:

I made one of my favourites tonight. Macaroni (white sauce with a whole pack of extra mature cheddar), tomatoes and pickled baby beetroot.

Beetroot in the macaroni cheese? Everyone has there own little spin on this dish. I like to bake it with smashed up crisps on top...nice and crunchy.

We were feeling lazy last night so we just had toasted sandwiches made with turkish bread, roast beef and some nice crumbly mature cheddar from the local deli, with lashings of caramalised onion chutney. And my missus made some peanut butter and choc chip bikkies for a meeting... I felt it was my duty to rescue a couple. So good with cold milk.

Oh well, an extra few kms on the bike tomorrow, it's worth it!

We had a wild salmon as well. En croute with a simple basil and dill butter and grain mustard filling. Basil pesto couscous and a green salad on the side. NIce and light.

My 5 yr old daughter went to dinner at a friend's house the other day and they served carbonara. She sat and looked at her plate and when asked if everything was alright she carefully explained that the bacon was flaccid and looked shop-bought and definitely was not proper Guanciale, and that using cream was not authentic and why was there no egg yolk on top, and would it be alright if she just had plain spaghetti?

The child's parents were a tad shocked, to say the least. To have your dinner rubbished by a five-year food-critic must be quite crushing.
When we came to collect her I was quite torn between being toe-curlingly embarrassed and immensely proud.
