Nippon charcuterie plate?

Itâs one of my favorite recipes by her! Making the ground masala is a little time consuming, but once it is made (makes a bunch) it can live in the fridge or freezer. Totally worth it!

Tue & Wed were leftovers (grilled salmon & fennel gratin; Deetroit pizzazz) for dinner.
Yesterday my band played at our favorite bar in town, which is a bit of a home game for us (itâs my regular watering hole & the usual locash for my ladies night). They also do a spooktacular job at decorating the joint. Before we went on, my PIC and I split the pulled pork tostadas with pineapple salsa & the crab fries. The pulled pork was a-ok, I didnât eat my tostada. The crab fries were delish, even though the fries were a bit anemic. Very generous amount of lump crab.
Pardon the shitty pics.
Going out tonight. Donât feel like cooking.

The fries look good in the picture⌠Are they more of a poutine? It looks like there may or may not be gravy with the fries and crab.
They were called âThe Inman Friesâ (donât ask 
) and listed as follows: French fries, lumb crab, Parmesan cheese, roasted garlic gravy.
So your poutine assessment is on point 
I mostly picked off the crab as I was already stuffed from the pulled pork I had, plus the fries were underdone. Bummer, bc it wouldâve been a very successful dish had the fries been crispier/darker.
That chef has some problems with potatoes, it seems (a recent dish of lox and fingerlings presented me with near raw taters - yikes!)

Those fries remind me of something we ate about a year ago in Hancock MD - BuddyLouâs Famous Crab Fries. Essentially fries with lump crab meat, cheese, and garlic aioli. Really delicious. Four of us, admittedly starving after a day of riding, gobbled these down as an app and considered ordering a second platter.

There is a Korean grocery store near my apartment building that now sells prepared meals and they now have my latest food addiction - Korean fried chicken. Most days itâs the type with sweet chili sauce (meh) but sometimes they have the ones with a breaded crust like KFC but Korean 
When I went there last week they had the wings with the sweet chili sauce and this time they came with fries. I donât know what they did to those poor potatoes but the fries were overcooked and soggy. Note to self: just get the chicken and go to McDonalds up the street for the fries.

Chicken thighs marinated in labneh and creole seasonings, served with an Indian inspired potato/pea dish. Very nice, lots of good spicy things going on. 75+ degrees in late October in New England.

Here I sit, in shorts and a tank top on Oct. 27th. Slider door is open, windows upstairs are open.
âWait!â you say! âYou live in New England! What are your windows doing open?â
âWell,â I say, âwhen it gets up to almost 80° during the day in late October here in New England, you take FULL advantage!â (No different from the lone 60° day in February when we see people running along the Charles River in shorts and tee shirtsâŚwith snowbanks piled up along the walkways!)
So, I went with a proper, easy last-gasp summer meal: a big-ass boigah, with char-siu sauce, American cheese and bacon on a lightly toasted Brioche bun. Lamb Weston fries alongside, cooked in the convection oven extra crispy.
There was wine. And a very nice sunset. Will look forward to tomorrowâs almost 80° day as well before Sundayâs high temp of 50° rolls in and Iâm back in leggings and a sweatshirt.

Leftover stew for lunch. Leftover stew for dinner. No more leftover stew. And I just noticed thereâs a full moon tonight. Itâs been so overcast lately. Just in time for Halloween? Everyone be careful out there.

We had smoked country ribs with a Cajun dry rub and TJâs sweet potato fries. Mrs. P also made fig, gorgonzola, Andouille sausage toast with with garlic crunch and hot honey. We had a nice Australian cabernet to go with the meal.
