Tonight it's mussels cooked in wine: one of the easiest meals to make (mussels, butter, shallots, and white Burgundy), and also one of the most fun to eat:
Just ignore the watch a family fondue which was a traditional new years eve meal from out time in Switzerland
For now...Chesapeake Bay scallops wrapped in prosciutto with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, taragon and pepper. Later, after the show...something cheesy and greasy served with fries from Primanti Brothers washed down with something appropriate and plentiful. All the best. Happy New Year. Have fun kfw
Last night's dinner: fillet steak with chips, peas, mushrooms, tomatoes, onions and red peppers washed down with champagne, followed by Christmas cake and St. Agur cheese on crackers. We slept well last night!
This was actually a couple of nights ago--a favorite summertime meal, which I made in the dead of winter for the first time: baked potatoes and onions. It's pretty simple: a slice of potato, then a slice of Vidalia onion, then a slice of potato, then another slice of Vidalia onion--ad infinitum. Sprinkle with olive oil and salt and pepper. Easy peasy.
Gave chef the evening off so about to enjoy a nice easy starter, Perhaps to finish with some vanilla ice cream with a dash of espresso Martini ? Main I haven't a clue as that has been left to her ladyship.
Arroz Verde - Fried shallots, mucho garlic, Bomba rice cooked in Dashi fish stock with Clams & Prawns served with Aioli...Yay
Drunken Noodles with beef. Wife had Drunken Noodles with duck. Due to starting with Main Tais and Mango Martinis, there was no thought to take food pics once entrees arrived.
For tonight, the Speedy Gonzales Moonwatch says it’s time for the old MREs in a can...CBS&M...good times!
A somewhat upmarket fish supper Prawn and crab fishcake with chips and in the interest of healthy living a small salad with balsamic vinegar. And as it is a watch forum,
Right now, in the dead of winter, I am getting the shack nasties and wanting food I can't have, because it's not available just now, like these little rascals:
A few nights ago, I had this. Tonight, I am on my way to pick up some $1.99 fish tacos to have while reminiscing about this steak.
Out of curiosity, on TV and through pop culture, there are lots of references to Lobster in the US. It seems to be more readily available than here in Aus. How much are they usually to buy? Curious to know what the differences are in price
