stopped at Cava Grill for dinner tonight. Greens & black lentils, tzatziki, baba ganoush, hummus, grilled chicken, kalamata olives, mint and cucumbers with lemon tahini dressing. So so so good!
A friend and I met for a late lunch today at a Mexican restaurant. Before we were seated she made a comment about being hungry for Asian food lately and so have I so we scooted out and down the street.
It smelled heavenly in there and the people appeared to be Chinese so I prepared myself for something authentic and good. And it was. Egg drop soup, very fragrant and tasty fried rice and General Tsao's pork.
The pork was crispy crusted, tender and juicy inside but the cut of the meat mystified me. I've never seen anything cut off a hog that looked like that. Maine Brokerman or someone else out there maybe you can help? The cuts looked exactly like a miniature old-fashioned ham - round, narrow at the top and wider at the bottom. About an inch long. There were no bones, maybe a little tender cartilage. Made me think of deboned guinea pig haunches!
Whatever it was it was very good but the longer I thought about guinea pigs the more I saved to take home. Mystery meat.
It's day two (slow roasting day) on the family sauerbraten/brisket recipe, and the house smells amazing!
Unfortunately, we don't get to eat it yet! You cool it and slice it while cool (makes the slices hold together) and heat it up one last time in the "gravy" in a very low oven on the day you eat it. (day 3)
Tonight I have a ribeye for the hubs, and I'm making sauteed italian green beans with a sliced yellow squash, and maybe a baked potato and cottage cheese for my entree.
Sliced sausages in barbecue sauce along with steamed broccoli and brown rice.
