I don't know why I have been talking about food even more than usual lately. BUT I had to mention that I am very excited about the reservations I have this Sat for Joule, the restaurant that K and I go to monthly. K's going to be in NorCal until I leave for SoCal, and I won't be back until March, so this is my only opportunity to have their February supper. Since they're not good about updating FB about what that is on a monthly basis, I just called and asked what the menu is... and it sounds ah-may-zing. I missed some of the details because I'm no court transcriber; I can't type that fast!
Joule's February Family Supper menu ($35/pp):
First course: lemongrass salmon
Second course: winter radish salad, tofu
Third course: charred octopus, kale
Fourth course: garlic chive gnocchi, wild mushrooms
Fifth course: hangar steak, glazed daikon
Sixth course: malt chocolate bites, with some kind of liqueur dipping sauce
One of my favorite coworkers in the world, C., lives in New York. She's turning 50, which she just told me and blew my mind, because she literally looks like she's in her mid-30s. Anyway, the last timejade_okelani and I were in New York, I asked her for recommendations on places to go to eat, and she gave great advice. Anyway, for her birthday her husband is taking her (and 8 guests) here. Her birthday cake is going to be from this bakery. Look at one of their cakes:
They also make cupcakes:
Seriously, I can't even imagine the work that went into these.
Now a little something for you gamer nerds -- and if you like old skool Eminem ("Guilty Conscience" is one of my favorite Eminem songs), this is a really awesome parody of that song + Starcraft II. I don't play SC2 enough to fully understand all the terminology, but it really doesn't matter.
