Thanks 

 

It was very good though I'm not sure how good it was for me

 

I usually don't like hominy either but that's probably because the only other dish I can think of with hominy in it is menudo and I'm not a fan

Shady remember if you get the chance to try that restaurant we discussed, I'm keen to see what you and the missus think :)

I was lazy yesterday. Left some steak in some marinade in the fridge for a few hours and tossed it on the BBQ. Put some potatoes in the Microwave and 10 minutes later, dinner was ready. Add a bit of butter and garlic salt to "baked" potatoes.

Just keeping a low profile...

 

Lurking a lot, but not playing a wide variety of games at the moment and only a cursory interest in remote world events (and local events being rather yawn inducing), simply haven't had much of value to add to discussions.

 

I know silence is golden, but sadly the world market hasn't put a dollar per ounce price on it yet.

You kidding me about not eating Octopus before? You are such an adventurous eater I would have thought your folks would have had you munching on a nice octopus tentacle when you were "knee high to a grasshopper" ? ;)

 

But I assume you have eaten calamari before which is squid and  from the same family as octopus...so the tastes are very similar

I just had a thought: if octopi have most of their neurons in their arms then aren't you basically eating brains?

There isn't enough spicy wasabi root paste in the world to make me eat octopus brain. However, everything else on that plate is prime time.

:lol:

 

The thing is I do eat brain, I have eaten sheep and calf brain. Obviously when its served it looks nothing like a brain. I've had it sliced thin and with a good sauce like a Sage sauce

I'd certainly try brains, if I saw any going. I've handled a human brain (pickled). Surprisingly firm.

I bought t-bone steaks and had these charcoal grilled yesterday, served with an almost glutinous primitivo red. Rubbed the steaks with oil and chipotle chillis, let them come to warm room temperature just before grilling on a very hot heat. Served with good quality salt, eaten off the bone by hand.

 

What a flavour! Don't know if t-bones are normally so good or if my butchers excelled themselves.

Hit up 333 Pacific while the 'rents were in town. Well, one 'rent and his wife, but she's cool. 

 

Normally I don't like bleu cheese, but this Kobe beef meatloaf made me realize I really don't like it. Riddled with mold, indeed. The potatoes and asparagus were good, but the whole dish was a sodium bomb.

That looks very tasty, not something you would eat too often but  delicious enough. Do you know what type of Blue cheese it was?

I don't know, but it lit up all the bitterness sensors on my tongue. Like, sharp and bitter at the same time. Kinda unpleasant, I thought. I think I prefer mom's meatloaf with ketchup.  :biggrin:

I do love me a pungent blue cheese 

 

I can eat it on its own as a snack but my wife only likes it on her burgers and even then just a little bit
