A friend and I went to Thai Noodles on New Year's Eve before going to see Genzhi Town to close out our cinema going for 2025. The movie was fun. Being a Chinese movie, the denizens of Chiang Kai-shek's China were heroic and patriotic while the minions of Emperor Hirohito were a bunch of sadistic barbarians.
For dinner I had some tasty cucumber salad
to accompany chicken larb.
Both were very tasty. I used the sticky rice to soak up the larby juices.
My dining companion had the fried rice where they threw in everything but the kitchen sink. Every kind of meat they had on offer, broccoli, peas, etc. I like how they piled it up into a mound on the plate giving it a Close Encounters of the Third Kind vibe.
I am told it too was very tasty.
Someone generously gave me a sous vide cooker for Christmas.
I haven't used it yet but am contemplating the purchase of a nice steak from Meat People and giving it a go.
A couple weeks or so ago I went out to UW Provision where I didn't find any venison for a batch of bigos.* But I did find this pasty:
It was eaten last night.
The filling was a giant ball of brat.
It tasted fine and I dipped tender nuggets of bratwurst into Düsseldorf senf and some HP sauce which tastes more and more like Heinz 57 upon subsequent tastings.
*A co-worker heard of my plight and will be donating some venison to the bigos cause.
