Still Alive And Cooking
I cannot really believe that it has been two whole months...
Lots of things going on in the household...plus a modicum of cooking adventures. At some point, we have to post details about most of these (and pix too) but for now we have been busy with:
- exploring restaurants in our neighbourhood, namely El Titanic (a very unlikely name for a restaurant) which is a pretty amazing Mexican seafood restaurant.
- continuing to explore the Mexican markets in the area, Los Cuates which has a stunning selection of all things Mexican food-wise including a dynamite fresh salsa/ceviche/sauces bar and equally amazing meat counter.
- cooking everything from a cornmeal crust sea food pizza with a light lobster white sauce as a base, to a salted cod and potato gratin, to another batch of pork rillettes, to a very delicious black bean chiliquiles. Inspiration strikes and we set it off, devour it and then say, "oops, we forgot to take pictures for Two. Ate....". Ah well, it's all about the post-prandial dip, don'tcha know.
BTW, I added all of the older "Mise en Place" blog entires a few week ago. They're all sitting in the "mise en place blog (old)" category. Mise en Place was our first attempt to food-blog and I thought it made sense to include them here...
