I’m looking forward to a lot of things in life; one of them is a big ol’ kitchen.

Dim sum in Flushing—one of the best brunches I’ve had, honestly. I ate till it hurt. And I tried chicken feet for the very first time. It was also good that my friends actually speak Cantonese and Mandarin.

My biggest culinary undertaking to date: the menu for our holiday party (of 50 people) last night.
The hours and $ spent is all worth it just to hear “I know when I come to your parties, I’m going to be fed well.”

Sometimes, you just have to screw the food pyramid and cook the comfort food.
Tonight, Maria and I enjoyed a long-overdue resurgence of a classic college dish I made up when I was studying abroad in London. Basically it’s a cheesy tuna casserole, or a tuna bake, or whatever. Sounds disgusting, but I promise it’s not (trust me—I prefer my tuna raw). It’s the lovechild of the ingredients found in a 20-year old’s kitchen (or cabinet and minifridge): pasta, tuna, a can of cream of mushroom soup, a block of white cheddar cheese, butter, and lots and lots of garlic (tonight we’ve sprinkled panko on top for crisp), and when it all comes together, baked into each other and melty and gooey right out of the oven, it’s the most delicious thing ever.

It’s rare that I take food pics two nights in a row but I just went grocery shopping for the first time since I don’t know, the middle of July?
Tonight I made a Thai soup. It has garlic, coconut milk, green curry paste, chicken, shiitake mushrooms, fresh lime juice, and fish sauce and it’s garnished with scallions, red peppers, and cilantro. Leftovers for the rest of the week.
Andrew, come dine before you leave us!
