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.
I'll go to Trader Joe's again tomorrow to see if they have any anchovies. They didn't have any tonight.
Leftover Peking Noodles and a pizza for dinner at home. The pizza was spam and ham, which sounds like it would be excellent, but it really wasn't. Again, I love my crust, but the spam was simply unworthy of it. Now I like spam, but in this context, it just tasted like a mediocre frozen pizza topping. Well, it was worth a shot, but it's probably an experiment I don't need to try again.
