The first two pictures are from yesterday's food -- the curry chicken pho, and the gai choi (芥菜, Chinese mustard greens) soup.
A pretty good curry chicken pho from the 7 Mission restaurant (7th and Mission) for lunch. I'm happy I discovered this place, even though it's a little far from work, because the only other good pho place in the area I know of is closed (along with the rest of the International Food Court.) Mustard green soup at home for dinner. A heck of a lot of it.
Average pho for lunch. The last of the leftover dumplings for dinner. At the end, I started to pinch the dumplings in a different way. Instead of a usual crescent (usual for my family, I guess), I pinched it going up on one side and down on the other, so it made a 'S'-shape. Midnight ribs for the second course (midnight because I didn't get home until well after nine and they take about two-and-a-half hours in the oven.) But this time I used a decanter to separate the braising liquid from the fat and was able to make a nice little reduction from it. I also just turned up the gas and blasted the heck out of it, so maybe that was the difference.
Beef curry ramen (hot) from Muracci's. It's still good, but they're still slow. Pizza for dinner at Stephanie and Joe's. I brought the dough and Chiara helped spin it out and put on the toppings. The first one kind of stuck to the peel, but the second came out much better. Rounder, at least.
Oh, I also ate a little piece of chocolate when I got home.
Dinner with Marvin at Tea Planet. I got the rice noodle soup to go. Very good -- above average. They don't have stinky tofu there, although the owner woman said that she did when they first opened. But, I guess theose SOMA and Fidi snobs didn't appreciate it. Oh well. Suckers.
A second dinner at home. Leftover chicken and yaki-soba. I don't know why I ate a second dinner (other than wanting to get rid of food.) Maybe it's just time to let myself go, ya?
Free lunch at Basil Thai with, well, a lot of people from work. It was free because Chris put his business card in the 'get a free lunch!' box and his card was drawn. I got the duck noodles, which was pretty good, although I thought the broth was a little thin. Leftovers for dinner at home -- chicken and rice and a bit of yaki-soba that Marvin brought over.
