Eggs bennys over a mexi hash.
Eggs are farm fresh organic eggs. I found it kinda weird how the whites didn't really wrap around the yolks, but rather stuck together very tightly by themselves.
It was... different.
Yolk was yummy though.

Steak and Guinness Pie







Double smoked bacon





3 cuts of beef
- Blade steak
- Brisket
- Short rib




Topped with puff pastry.
Baked until golden, and the whole mess is bubbling over.







Took way longer than expected to get the beef stewed properly, but totally worth the effort.

What do you use for ramen noodles? I can't find ones I like and I'm not committed enough to make them myself.

I've been trying out random stuff at T&T, H-Mart and Fujiya.
My guests seem to have an overwhelming opinion in favor for the vacuum packed noodles from Fujiya. While everybody finds it acceptable, I feel dirty serving some that isn't fresh made.
I've recently had a chance to try the ramen at Burdock (same at Harvest Union) and it's everything I was looking for. Bright yellow color, very toothsome and holds up to cooking. Had a chat with the chef and apparently they source from Toko on 7th Ave. So I ordered a case from Toko. Will update as my opinions develop.

I've started doing a suggested donation for dinners to help me out on costs.
Since it's my home, I want to keep it a happy, safe and fun place. No cray crays

Only friends and friends of theirs that they can vouch for.
If you know people who have been over, just ask them to bring you.



More things I have cooked before...





Red wine mushrooms with noodles.




Black Tiger Prawns Fettuccine In Garlic Cream Sauce with Chervil




Baked goat cheese, 2 ways.
- Housemade marinara and basil
- Roasted garlic and goat cheese





Gua bao (Taiwanese pork belly sliders)





Black tiger prawns in garlic and white wine sauce with fettuccine





Oysters rockefeller





Tiramisu, espresso and demerera rum

Thanks to Ronin for helping take a few of these shots.

Look forward to hearing about your results from toko!

The only real flaw to your ramen is the noodles. Broth, meat, toppings, all good...but we need better noodles.

Culverin, I need to know...is this all done in your home or are you using a restaurant's kitchen? Want to post pics of your setup regardless?

It's his house. There's a stove and a fridge on one side, a sink on the other and a metal island in between.
