Yum... nothing like salted, smoked and preserved dead meat. Ever since our college trips to Mammoth whereby we passed the jerky store in Bishop (you know.... that one) I have longed for good jerky. The parentals live up in Canada where I imagine that jerky is a way of life. This trip down the parentals brought down some fresh kill elk jerky cut up by one of W's native friends. Man... this is good stuff. I now have 5 lbs of elk jerky... thick like a cut of steak and savory throughout. Did I mention this is good stuff? If you know me and are visiting my house, be sure to ask for some jerky because it doesn't leave my house nor do I imagine that my friends share my fascination for jerky. Yum... more burping to ensue.
A few weeks back, some friends and I decided to get together for a semi-regular/irregular breakfast. Toe lives in Chicago, MWangsu lives in SF as well as does Chris-Squared. Meesh lives down in LA with me but for some reason we were all in town. Great! Toe is quite the foodie and has proven to be of value of late, especially with my evening out with Bons @ Tama Sushi. Amandine Patissiere was a quaint breakfast nook to enjoy with friends. Incredibly, the place seems to be run by some Japanese people. I mean, REAL Japanese and their culinary arts are not limited to sushi and sake. Here's a photo from the eatery with the sig O's thrown in for good measure. The photo was taken using Chris-Squared's badass old-school camera of which its name, I cannot pronounce.
As a bonus, here's a french toast recipe I found a long time ago that I posted to an old blog.
BURP! Ah, that was good.
