I enjoyed Hattie B’s - both chicken and sides - but it’s extremely similar to an Asheville hot chicken joint called Rocky’s that has no wait. Barista Parlor is a really great coffee shop with several locations and killer biscuit breakfast sandwiches and cronuts. We also had surprisingly good wood-fired pizza, mussels, and salad at City Taphouse near the convention center. Also in that area, we had pretty good tacos at Bakersfield, but they were quite small and expensive. Nothing you couldn’t get at your neighborhood taqueria for half the price.

Last I was there, food delivery to the resort was limited (postmates etc included). Hope it’s improved.

Mrs. P made spicy Andouille sausage, peppers, and onions with fresh shaved parmigiano reggiano :yum:

I needed a quick dinner. What else is new? I vaguely remember a different time but this is where I am now. Grilled chicken following loosely a recipe I found in cooks from 2007 with a mustard/chive dressing. Zucchini. Corn. Wine for sides. Is it Friday yet???

That’s very close to being spectacular.

So weather.com told me that precipitation would decrease to 35% after 3 PM. I rolled the Weber out of the garage, and was immediately greeted by 100% precipitation. For hours.

The Burgers went under the Broiler instead of on the grill.

I wanted the BF to make a snacky dinner tonight with the leftover stuff from camping - crackers, chips, salami, cheese, bread, pate, etc., but instead he made this. It was all things that needed to be eaten, and a much healthier, certainly tastier, dinner. But we still have all that crap left and I hate throwing shit out! :frowning_face:

Back home from the short trip and a nearly empty fridge, I could still make 2 dinners without the need of going to shop.

Tofu with seaweed and scallions

Eels with soba noodles

Pork shoulder with pan fried banana. Plaintain was definitively ripe, I still cooked them. Pork marinated with fresh oregano and garlic, cooked in oven with foil for 2.5 hours and without for 25 minutes.

Definitely need to run to the shops today!

Thanks. I absolutely don’t feel like that, but WHATEVER. It is Friday. It might stop raining. Husband comes home tonight!

Our last two dinners were cashew chicken with brown rice and whatever vegetables I could find,

and fish tacos with homemade pintos and cilantro slaw.
