Home Home on the Grange

Stop #1: inoteca, cant believe how tasty the egg truffle toast on asparagus is for $7, i picked a rose of niederra, scary good with a'gus

Stop #2: wd~50, went for a beer, these folks are wine cool, but my body said beer, new rabbit app yahoo, new soup (in this issue of NY Mag) yahoo, two new "taste's" get yahoo delux. one was a rouget, green (gran-e?) apple, lentil, apple foam? with nori, and soy caramel, what was amazing to me was this light vaporish heat that the combo gave off (cool and cooled by the stout beer), it was from the fish which is cayanne?? treated (i have been to cayanne!!, i need to get back to the amazon), great snack (meal) topped off with a coco choc de safron:>)

Stop #3: Wash Park, couple of fun wines (inc an awesome 90 Sangiovese, a suprise), a customer showed up, we shared the salmon caviar pepper pancake app, very fine dish.

Last Stop: Sample in Brooklyn, I wanted to laugh out (yes i'm drunk), and for no?? good reason, this famous wine guy does the wine list yet the bartender doesnt know the wines, i get a Greek red and white in tumblers, order two app's and both come from cans, they were K-Rations for the gourmet set but comedy to me, after hard core delish food art at wd and simplistic bliss at inoteca what can i say but time for bed

good nite

once a week i have been eating where ever i want but with some reserved approach, one week 360 was fantastic, last week was Rose Water which can be very good and both places are fantastic folks, this saturday i will do the two new dishes at wd~50 (6;00 at the bar if anyone is free, followed by an app at Wash Park and one other place, 4 app's at 3 spots)....

I saw Frances McDormand and her Coen-brother boyfriend/husband Sat. night at Alias (l.e.s.). She was kinda scruffy-looking (shaggy hair, jeans & t-shirt) and pretty talkative. Coen guy wasn't saying much. They were with another woman. He paid and then they left.

broke down from my dinner of apple juice with ginger to eat a small plate of linda's chicken curry and rice, both from the curry source shop was tasty and not that unhealty, still I dreamt of bacon, crunchy slices smokie and juicy (i blame it on the ginger and spice).....

Diet:
Breakfast is one juiced grapefruit added to 2 liters of water.

Lunch is Irish Oats slow cooked, adding 2 oz of yogurt, 1/2 banana, few raisons and some fiber (omega 3/6/9 tablets and also a tab of folic acid)

Dinner is beans, grain, tofu, rice, greens, hummus, etc (good old hippie food)

Detox: I didnt think that it would be this hard, cranky yes but not the deep cold inside from lacking the fuel of pig fat and the gigantic waves of acid, reservoirs built strong for the 4000+ calorie daily desolve routine........
