This corn soup-chowdah-whatevah. Bulked up with frozen peas plus some egg whites whipped in, egg drop soup style.

This dry-fried eggplant from award winning Peter Chang China Cafe. 

Finding a place on Bon Appetit’s top 50 Best New Restaurants. And well deserved at that.

Spicy! And a perfect dinner out with friends, sharing family style

This night out with friends. Complete with Avalon’s extra dirty martinis, which had me at hello just a few weeks back and we’re still goin’ strong… just too good!!

This lil’ kitchen experiment. With a fabulous product that I picked up at World Market a few weeks back.
