June 25, 201313 yr Just finished some yummy pho from Pho N More, and a froyo smoothie chaser from Red Mango.
June 28, 201312 yr a little rustic French bread. it's pretty perfect, even if i do say so myself. Damn ... didn't realize you had completely cut off your ring finger with that last knife accident!
June 29, 201312 yr blackened coho salmon sandwich with the ginger avenger Damn, that sounds good! The sandwich, that is.
June 30, 201312 yr Brisket and rainbow chard. Went a bit too long on the brisket, softer than it should be.
June 30, 201312 yr Had Montreal's famous "smoked beef" sandwich and poutine for lunch. I guess being a Jew from Boston (and with in-laws from NY area) I am spoiled. Basically it was corned beef, which my stepmom makes better! Never mind all the good deli's where I've had it....Was still quite tasty, though, and the poutine was good to try....once.

July 7, 201312 yr If we can't be in Paris at least we can start brunch with coffee and beignets in the #2 tripadvisor ranked restaurant in SLO....Still hungry? But of course
July 7, 201312 yr Jealous of the tri-tip! Ok, I guess I'm not too jealous since I did have a rather good Pave de Boeuf aux Poivre Vert ("medium rare" in France = rare).
July 7, 201312 yr Did you order "a point" (ah pwant) or something else? If you want to make sure it is the medium side of medium rare, ask for "bien cuit" (bee-en kwee). I meant to add that even saying "medium rare" is usually going to be understood, but as you see they tend to undercook. Better than the opposite, of course. Edited July 7, 201312 yr by Voltron
July 7, 201312 yr The problem was that the waiter asked me, in English, "medium rare or medium?" and I responded "medium rare." I wasn't sure if he would think that I was ordering an American version of medium rare or the French version. I was with a friend of mine who is is French (we met up for dinner) and we were wondering what would they would bring out. It was still good and I ate it like that but I woudn't call it medium rare (unless that means rare on the inside and medium on the outside ). I certainly didn't want to say medium and actually get a (what American's consider) medium steak. Edited July 7, 201312 yr by shellylh
July 7, 201312 yr Once, many moons ago, our French waiter, realizing we were English, said "would you like it Bloody?, or Burnt?"
