Just saying - me and the wife started getting organic produce boxes through Eat Well Frams (http://eatwell.com). This past week's came with fresh basil - like 1-2 days out of the dirt fresh. Made a simple pesto with it:2 cups of packed basil1 garlic clove1/2 cup of roasted pine nuts6 TB of olive oilPoured it over some pasta.

i think the weaksauce graemlin should have made it to the new additions
Well, I am though!
Substitute the basil with cilantro for a different twist.
oh yeah. that looks like some plate lunch goodness.
i give food 5 stars.
i live in the oaxacan neighborhood of koreatown. alls i know that means is there is good mole and pupusas and gorditas and elotes and posole and tamales none of which i will attept to cook myself. but its good shit.
made the same thing last night, minus pine nuts, plus parm cheese... fresh garlic bread, salad, had the girlie goin nutz
Oaxacan grub is . Love that shit.
But yo, I heard that the Oaxacan's didn't even invent that mole shit. Jalisco broke 'em off with the recipe and then Oaxaca took the credit. Plus all that chocolate sauciness is played out. These days it's all about that new Colimacrunk style of cuisine. Straight bangin.'
I usually get a #1, large, but I could do without the tripe and beef balls. Just gimme that raer steak.
no red meat for me, dun...
Then you better get with the chicken pho, Pho Ga dunnie! Pho Ga is the BEST thing for lunch when you have a cold!
feelin that, but i'm feelin f.o.o.d. as a whole.
something about beef in a bowl that doesn't look/sound appealing. maybe if i was stoned.
is that chicken raw?
if the answer to the above question is "no" can someone drop some recipe knowledge?
i like the southern vietnamese pho as opposed to the thick noodle northern stylee. i had some bomb ass viet curry with [carpet]bagguette bread. it was dericious!
And yes, the beef, chicken,etc appears a little off because they flash cook it or something so it stays red. Gourmands correct me if I'm off.
2). I went to the Citrus Club for dinner last night (Upper Haight). That place is . The Pad Thai was nothing I ever had. Instead of the usual "orange sauce"
that I get at King of Thai, this place has this Alfredo-esque type of sauce. They even had plum sauce on the tables AAAAAAAaaand it was dirt cheap.
cue-up that Ross Hogg graemlin of him saying "delicious"
a lot of times the meat is thrown in the bowl raw so i usually bury my shit under the noodles so it cooks. however, this is no mistake, it is served raw. there is also a raw beef salad that is pretty damn tasty.
yuppified asian food
Then you ate at a WACK pho shop hommie. A good bowl of pho has CRAZY FLAVOR. Rich beef broth with star anise, cinnamon, cilantro, onion, ginger, parsnips, etc.
FLAVOR!!!!! Where did you eat pho?
Dude, maybe you've been going to wackest pho places ever but O flavor? That's like saying free jazz is wack.
mildly. what fucks me up is the sausage [go 'head kingy]. portugese sausage, chorizo, longanisa. stank burps for days.
An Odub, free jazz is wack. Cue Fatback hateration!
Peace
