ok...i haven't been cooking so much recently but i guess i have to update you on my eating out...
let's see
thursday ellen came up to visit & there were a lot of pasta shows in food network heehee so i dragged her & chanda to pheonix next door
it was really really good...i would definitely go back...especially for the price..i'd rather spend a few extra dollars for that organic & fresh & gourmet quality over gyspy's
chanda got what i was gonna get originally...
duck confit w/ porcini pasta & broccoli rabe
ellen got a lemon meyer pasta w/ peppers..i can't remember the details for most of them haha
& i know i got a lamb but i can't even remember the pasta...i think it was some herb...& it was a bolongese style sauce...
everything was super tasty
they had cheeseboard baguette as the bread
(keep in mind pheonix pasifisco makes fresh pasta & they are used by most of the top restaurants in the area including rivoli & i think citron?..the owner is also the founder of semifreddi's..)
& then we bought chocolate chip cookies, almond macaroons, & chocolate pecan chewies at pheonix pasifisco
tried more olive oil at stonehouse:)
cept they have gift boxes now! chanda & i were kinda mad but it's ok i guess overall we got a better deal...& i'm sure i will be able to use it up...
later in the day ellen wanted to go to gelateria naia it took forever to choose flavors as usual i got canary melon & peanut..good stuff
hmm what else..
only thing i can remember at the moment is chanda, aaron, pierre, & my trip to farmer's market sat for lunch
pierre said he was hungry so we got an excessively large amount of food haha
satay from the thai stand & 2 taquitos & a tamale plate from the vegan mexican stand & a masala dosa from the indian stand...the one w/ plantains wasn't ehre this sat i was sad for like a millisec
everything was yummy...i think i agree with pierre though i'm a big fan of that mexican place
when we walked about...got a stewart's key lime soda from andronico's it's yum
& i bought a raspberry scone from cheeseboard...
i like cheeseboard scones cuz they're more cakey than crumbly which i don't like....
plus they have special weekend ones so yea
oh yea quote from chanda:
"pb & j & beer is like your guys' comfort food now"
