The Wonders of Street Fairs
2008-06-06 23:02:00
I love street fairs, festivals, farmers markets, flea markets, and all good stuff. Therefore, whenever I come across one unexpectedly, I get uber joyful and I find myself skipping towards the crowded and rowdy road. I came across one near Lincoln Square, in New York City, a while back. I only walked around for about 10 minutes, but it was a blast. I picked up some bootleg designer shades for ten bucks (score!).Street fairs have wonderful food. You can basically find anything from the super greasy to the super sugary. My favorites include... gyros, funnel cake, fried dough, shish kabobs, fresh squeeze lemonade, italian ice, etc. The list goes on. But, one of my ultimate favorites are sweet crepes. There is was, a la Bella Crepe! Bananas and nutella! Strawberrys! All that powdered sugary goodness!

Pho Night!
2008-05-31 05:04:00
Pho is an awesome Vietnamese noodle soup, most commonly served with thinly sliced beef. For more information, you can check out one of my old posts from the time I dined at Tank Noodles in Chicago.Vietworldkitchen.com is a wonderful resource on Vietnamese food and cooking. There's a very detailed recipe for making Pho and also some background information on Pho. Andrea Nguyen, founder of the website, also has a wonderful Vietnamese cookbook available Into the Vietnamese Kitchen. I actually own this book. It is amazing!The following recipe for Pho was adapted from the website. The only difference is that I used Beef Pho broth mix and seasoning packets. Unfortunately, it was inconvenient for me to obtain all the spices and spend the hours preparing the broth.Beef noodle soup (pho bo)Makes 8 servings (or more) Ingredients: A big pot of Beef Pho broth (You can purchase pre-made Beef Pho broth and seasoning packets.

Destination Washington DC: Random Local Farmers Market (Photo Blog)
2008-05-24 23:31:00
I came across a local farmers market during my last few hours in Washington DC. Actually, I had already checked out of the hotel and was dragging my suitcase around. But, once I saw this sign, I had to walk towards the arrow and check out this farmers market.I'm a big fan of farmers markets. You always find super fresh vegetables and totally delectable fruits of all sorts. You can't find anything as fresh as these in a supermarket. There's often an amazing selection of homemade jams and honeys and that sort.Oh yeah, most importantly, support local agriculture! (One of the vendors were from Pennsylvania, but they are only about 2 hours away. So, that is still pretty "local".)Well, this entry is more like a photoblog post but I thought the pictures were pretty sweet.

Destination Washington DC: Jackey Cafe in Chinatown
2008-05-20 03:30:00
While in Washington DC, I decided to make a trip to Chinatown . Wow, I was completely intrigued. This Chinatown is so different from the New York City one. This Chinatown is so clean and modernized. Unlike the New York City Chinatown, there's no smell of fish and there's no unidentifiable liquids leaking on the floors. There's no loud street vendors or people trying to sell you fake purses or bootleg DVDs. To my surprise, I found a Regals movie theater there and also a Washington Sports Club. There were tons of big name restaurants like Legals Seafood, Fuddruckers, and much more. There was even a Hooters!!!One of the tourist attractions here is this Friendship Arch, which is this traditional Chinese brick gate archway that hovers over the road.Well, it was about lunch time and I wanted to go try out some local Chinese food joint. I came across a Wok n Roll Chinese and Japanese restaurant. This place was pretty cool. According to the sign at the door, it was once the boarding house...

Destination Washington DC: Snap Crepes
2008-05-13 17:33:00
Recently, I was walking aimlessly around the Shoppes of Georgetown area in Washington DC. There's this big road that's full of restaurants, coffee shops, clothing stores, and other shopping attractions.Then, something caught my eye. I saw a wooden sign propped up on the sidewalk. On the wooden sign, there were the words "Crepes " and "Bubble tea", along with a solid painted blue arrow. The word "Crepes" totally stole my attention since I love crepes. I was also very curious about how French crepes and Taiwanese bubble tea came to meet. Without hesitation, I decided to walk in the direction of the arrow in search of these goodies.Snap is a little tiny cafe located at 1062 Thomas Jefferson St NW. The menu is very simple. There's sweet crepes, warm crepes, vegetarian crepes, etc. Then there's fruit bubble teas and milk bubbles teas, along with fruit smoothies. There's a couple of tables inside and more outdoor seatings in the back of the cafe.I decided to order it to go. I ordered ...

Natto
2008-04-24 02:00:00
[noun.]Natto is a traditional Japanese food made from fermented soybeans. It is high is protein and Vitamin K. It's also a good source of iron. Anyway, Natto has a pretty high nutritional value. (More information is available here.)Note: Natto is an acquired taste. It has a powerful and distinctive smell that some people might not be very fond of. Its flavor is very strong and it also has a very sticky consistency.I'm very adventurous when it comes to trying new foods. Therefore, I made a trip to the Asian market and picked up a package of natto. This one I purchased comes in a pack of three Styrofoam containers. It also comes with mini packets of soy sauce and mustard which can be used as seasoning for the natto. The pink packaging really caught my eye. Plus, this one says it's good for women!Add the soy sauce and mustard and mix well.Eat seasoned natto with rice.

Pizza Pizza Pizza
2008-04-20 05:30:00
Here are some pictures from my recent home pizza making adventure. The best part about making my own pizza at home is that we can put any ingredients we like and as much of it as we like.Pizza 1: This one is like a Supreme Pizza. It's toppings include... pretty much as many of the toppings you can find! This one has sliced mushrooms, onions, green pepper, and sausage.Pizza 2: This pizza is my favorite. Its main toppings are pineapples and ham. This is also known as the Hawaiian. (Interesting fact: The Hawaiian pizza actually did not originate from Hawaii. It's only called Hawaiian because of the characteristics of the toppings.) Occasionally, I would find this available at a local pizzeria. However, they are usually pretty stingy with the toppings. My slice would usually contain no more than 2 chunks of pineapple and 3 tiny pieces of ham. This is what a pineapple and ham pizza should look like!Can't forget about the Parmesan cheese!Enter the oven and about 15-20 minutes later...S...

Greek style Fish recipe
2008-04-12 01:08:00
During my last trip to Sam's Club, I picked up a large bag of frozen white fish fillets, individually frozen. I searched through Recipe zaar.com for a fish recipe and came across this simple recipe for Greek Tilapia. Previously, I made a post on a recipe for Flounder Mediterranean, which I enjoyed tremendously. However, I had limited ingredients and time was also an issue. This Greek Tilapia recipe, on the other hand, only required about 30 minutes to prepare and cook.I ran through the list of ingredients and made slight modifications to fit what I had in my kitchen. I used my white fish fillets instead of the tilapia fish. The recipe called for kalamata olives, but I didn't have any in stock at the time. I would definitely add the olives the next time.Ingredients:4 large fillets of white fish3 tablespoons of lemon juice1 scallion, chopped12 button mushrooms, sliced1 whole fresh tomato, diced1 tsp dried oregano1 tsp lemon pepper(kalamata olives, chopped)salt and pepperDirections:Pr...

Fun with scallion pancakes
2008-03-30 22:51:00
Scallion pancakes makes an awesome appetizer or snack. Well, the way I make them... they can probably a whole meal. Scallion pancakes are also known as green onion pie or Chinese pizza. It's not really a pancake, a pie, or a pizza. It's more like a Chinese flat bread made with dough, oil, and green onions. The literal translation is "green onion oil cake" or something along those lines.They are fun to order at selected Chinese restaurants and cafes. Luckily, you can also enjoy it at the comfort of your own home with little effort. They are available in frozen packages at the local Asian supermarket. This is the one I usually buy.The pancakes are separated with layers of plastic wrap, which makes it easy to peel. It's a very simple process.Basic directions:Heat a large frying pan with some oil. (I like to use cooking spray instead)Place the pancake into the pan.Cook for a few minutes and then flip it over.Cook until both sides are slightly golden brown.The scallion pancake is read...

Ginger Pear Tea
2008-03-26 01:50:00
Here's a recipe for an awesome tea. It also does miracles when you have a cold, flu, or sore throat. The ginger has a spicy and invigorating taste that's very soothing for the throat. This tea can be served hot or cold. This makes about 4-5 servings. (I know, many people find the taste of ginger to be too strong and are simply not very fond of it. The name Ginger Tea scares these people off. However, the Pear in the middle helps make it a little bit more tolerable. I personally love ginger, so I don't mind.)Ingredients:4-6 cups of water2 inch piece of fresh ginger root2 pears (I used Anjou pears in this one. Others will work fine as well.)lemon juicehoney, to tasteDirections:Peel the ginger root and chop it up into thin strips. (I usually peel the ginger, but it's not necessary. If you choose to skip the peeling, just wash it really well.) Set aside.Peel the pears and cut it into quarters or eighths. Discard the centers.Boil about 4 cups of water in a pot.

Paris broke my heart, but I found myself in Saigon
2008-03-15 17:06:00
I was in Chinatown, New York City the other day and in the mood for some Vietnamese Subs! Therefore, I went to the usual Paris Sandwiches on Mott Street in hopes of treating myself to the Regular Pork Sub or their delicious Vegetarian Sub. I walked inside and as I gazed at their colorful menu high up against the wall, I spark of disappointment came across. They had added like 50 cents to every item on their Sub menu. Their subs were now over $4.00 each. No more bargain "Chinatown" food!So instead of giving in to their slight price hike, I decided to go seek alternatives for Vietnamese Subs in Chinatown.About a block up from Paris Sandwiches, I came across a hidden sandwich shop. Its appearance can be quite deceiving. This sandwich shop is hidden in the back of a jewelry store.There, I found Banh Mi Saigon Bakery.This bakery was very busy. Many customers called ahead and came in to pick up their sandwiches. Others waited for their orders to be prepared on site. There's really no pla...

Ghetto Juice?
2008-03-04 02:32:00
Anyone remember the name of that beverage sold at Bodegas for a quarter? They kind of looked like mini colorful grenades.I have been trying to recall the name of this questionable beverage. I tried googling for the name. I tried search terms like "bodega quarter drink" and "mini grenade drinks". However, there was no luck of identifying the name. I came across several pictures, but was unable to read anything off of them. These beverages were referred to by many, as ghetto juice, quarter juice, quarter water, etc. They were sold at Bodegas or corner stores for a quarter each, and came in little barrels with an aluminum peel-off top.To my surprise, I came across a box of ghetto juice a while back. Little Hug! That's what they are called. I remember that I used to drink them as kid. (I don't know why. ) It contained probably less than 1% of fruit juice. It's basically water, sugar, and food coloring.

Destination New York City: Paris Sandwich
2008-02-17 14:43:00
Here is a great place for Banh Mi, Vietnamese subs, located right in New York City Chinatown. Paris Sandwich can be found at 113 Mott Street, between Canal St & Hester St. They opened up about a little over than a year ago, around December 2006. I have dined there multiple times and they have never disappointed. They bake their French baguettes and breads right on the spot. In addition to Vietnamese subs, they also serve various baguettes, breads, and Vietnamese snacks and dessert. This bakery/cafe also has seating available inside. The orders are placed at the counters in the front of the restaurant, and Vietnamese subs are picked up at the back.Right at the front window, you can see posters of the variety of foods they offer inside. I've always been a big fan of those Chinese waffles and mini pancakes that are often sold in little street vendors around Chinatown. Here, they offer this Green Tea waffle. It costs $1.00 and makes a great snack. The only thing is that when they s...

Blackberry Vegan Tofu Cheesecake
2008-02-13 04:33:00
In my last post Lunar New Year Food (Vegetarian Style) I showcased the Berry Mix Tofu Cheesecake . It uses tofu and soy cream cheese as the main ingredients and was topped with strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries. Previously, I had also posted a recipe for a Blueberry Tofu Cheesecake that utilized tofu and soy milk instead. I usually bake the cheesecake with soy cream cheese and tofu. I enjoy this version more because of its creamier texture.Here's the recipe for the cheesecake. This one is not as extravagant as the one I made for Lunar New Years and is only topped with blackberries.

This entry showcases some delicious vegetarian dishes I ate this past weekend. The main ingredients of the dishes are tofu, bean curd, and gluten. Some were purchased from a Buddhist temple that serves an amazing assortment of vegetarian cuisine. Some were prepared by my mom who is a big fan of Chinese vegetarian foods.

Restaurant Week 2008 New York City

NYC Restaurant Week Winter 2008 just ended last Friday. It's this two week event (Monday - Friday) where they offer special 3 course lunches and dinners at various restaurants across the city at promotional prices. I usually only go out to eat during weekends, but for this event, I made an exception.Three course lunch was $24.07. Three course dinner was $35.00.Honestly, I've never participated in restaurant week in New York City . So earlier last week, I shifted around my schedule and decided to go out to eat on a Tuesday night. Once I found a date, the next step was to pick a restaurant from the pretty extensive list. There were a lot of restaurants to choose from, ranging from American to Mexican to French to Asian cuisine. After picking a restaurant, comes the reservation process. Some restaurants get booked pretty quickly. Some of the restaurants do offer online reservations through OpenTable.com, which is kind of neat. They connect you directly to the restaurant and make you...

While in San Francis co , I went to the Fisherman's Wharf to check out the restaurants and the shops. I love clam chowder (New England style, woo!) and since I'm at the Wharf, fresh clam chowder sounded like a perfect late afternoon treat. I came across Boudin Sourdough , this restaurant/bar/cafe/bakery famous for their sourdough bread. I hear that sourdough in the West Coast is totally awesome.On the side of the building, there's a demonstration window. You can pretty much see everything that goes on in the bakery. Through the window, you see the bakers kneading dough, baking dough, and making their magic. There were a lot of people crowding around the observation window. There's also a little excerpt, 'What is Sourdough?'.At the entrance, I came across this sign. Boudin Clam Chowder in a Sourdough bread bowl! Wow, that's just perfect. Therefore, I hurried inside to order my serving of this awesome soup.While waiting on line, I gazed around. They called it the Baker's Hall, w...

On my way from the airport to the hotel, I came across one of many In-N-Out restaurants. I had to go in!When I walked inside, the layout looked just like any other fast food joint. There were 15+ servers working behind the counters and the kitchen. Two worked the registers while the others cooked and prepared food. Everyone looked so happy and friendly. The menu was simple. Double-Double, Cheeseburger, Hamburger, Fries, Shakes, and Drinks. Service was organized and quick. Peeking over the counter, I can see them preparing the burgers and frying the fries. (It was only later on when I got back to the East Coast, that I found out about the "secret menu". )Below are the Double-Double and the Hamburger, along with two servings of French fries.I was very impressed.
