Been on this kick of lobster rolls, thanks to the Wu’s, a good Asian twist to infamous Lobster Roll recipe…

Recipe:

1. Steam fresh lobsters (about 7 minutes per lb.)
2. Remove shell and extract lobster meat into mixing bowl; chop to small chunks
3. Cool or refrigerate for at least 1 hour
4. Add a dash of cayenne pepper
5. Add a dash of black pepper
6. Add Japanese mayo Kewpie to taste
7. Mix well, add more mayo as needed
8. Pan toast Hawaiian Sweet Bread with butter
9. Serve as slider sizes

Hmm… happy eating!

Decided to do a quick get-away with the wifey today… a long due date. Just the two of us…

And it would’ve been wrong to not involve food in this event, and it just so happens to be Dine-About-Town-SF this weekend… last two days!

We chose Butterfly Embarcadero.

Food was spectacular, and service was magnificent, I highly recommend it! :-)

Happy Dating, babe.

Went to Kopitiam today over there in Lafayette, California. Yeah… we DRIVE to get some food. It took us about an hour to get there.

The Highlight: Hainan Chicken Rice:

Mee Goreng

Mee Siam

Roti John

Roti Prata

Iced Coffee

At the end of it all, I would say its probably not that well worth of the drive. Food was just alright, not too much to rave about.

Check it out for yourself, here is their website.

Went to San Jose on Sunday, it was a great eating event day. :-) Awesomeness… had this at the Grand Century Mall Food Court:

Its basically a southern Vietnam specialty consisting of small, fried rice flour pancakes and shrimp on top. Eaten with nước mắm (fish sauce) and lettuce.

Bomb.
