Ready to drool?
‘Cause the past two weeks have pretty much been filled with some intense deliciousness…and I’m sharing it all here.
And it’s been excellent.
{The first day my parents were in town I took them for an evening picnic among the lilac trees in Highland Park. We picnic’d on jalapeno poppers, cheese bread with balsamic dipping oil, shrimp cocktail, salami, fresh mozzarella balls, olives, and my homemade mini Le Cordon Bleu fruit tarts….followed by a long, leisurely walk among the flowers to work it all off. A totally perfect night with perfect company!}
{Super tasty overstuffed NY style deli subs at Harry G’s}
{My French dip sammy au jus with garlic butter and spicy shoestring fries did not disappoint!}
{Shared salted caramel and espresso ice cream at Hedonist Artisan Ice Cream}
{Bunches of farm-fresh rhubarb from Rochester’s outdoor public market! All of this amazing rhubarb for only $5. Be still my heart!}
{Nachos from Blue Cactus in Fairport}
{And afternoon snack tacos!}
{Lemongrass ginger and Irish cream ice cream from Moonlight Creamery}
{The best BBQ chicken I’ve ever had, and incredible cheddar chorizo grits and ratatouille from Sticky Lips BBQ}
{Flavorful Italian cuisine from Bazil on Irondequoit Bay}
{Food Truck Rodeo: Brick-N-Motor’s fab menu}
{Food Truck Rodeo: Pickled watermelon and duck tacos!}
{Food Truck Rodeo: Macarollin’s fare}
{Food Truck Rodeo: The Classic}
{The macaroni of my dreams!}
{Chocolate covered turtle cheesecake on a stick!}
{Week # 2’s bounty of our Community Supported Agriculture share from Peacework Organic Farm: Mizuna, thyme, rhubarb, asparagus, leeks, komatsuna, bok choy, vivid choy, and lettuce. Week # 1 included asparagus, leeks, lettuce, bok choy, carrots, garlic scallions, and oregano.}
{Ugly-looking but crazy tasty Asian noodle dish I made with the bok choy, leeks, and carrots from our CSA share, along with chicken, buckwheat soba noodles, toasted sesame oil, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sherry, salt and pepper}
{My homemade strawberry rhubarb pies!}
I am pleasantly shocked my pants still fit, though I don’t suppose I should push my luck.
And that’s not even all of it!
Food fans, you definitely don’t want to miss tomorrow’s post!
