MsRad Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 if anyone is interested in trying Souley Vegan (D...) there's a groupon for it now. it's $12 for $25. use it to buy the everything plate (which is $20 and enough food for 3 meals), a strawberry gingerade, and a slice of pie.

Do You? Guess I'll settle for the decent dim sum place that delivers to campus.

Barbie Doll Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Monday- carne aside taco on a flor tortilla at Salsalito (very clever word play) Taco in Sausalito. This place is so bomb. Their homemade chips are in the top 3. They give you 3 delicious salsas with it. Guacamole is amazing. And the kicker...a bottle of creme on every table. Just a little slice of heaven in a squeeze bottle. Yesterday- Sol Food. Got the Carne Asada meal w/rice, pink beans and one tostone (fried plantain) and maduro (sweet plantain). Had a bite of my friends fried shrimp which I am amazed I had never had before and steak sand. Soooo BOMB!!! I could drink that hot sauce. Loch can u insert pic of hot sauce here Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/259-food-and-drink-list/?page=6#findComment-5928 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tight-Lines Posted January 27, 2011 Author Share Posted January 27, 2011 I ate Sol on Tuesday. Had the Bistec sandwich for the 1,000,000,000 time. Owns my life every time. The hot sauce is worshiped in at least three known countries.

Lochlan Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I went to Picante tonight with the Sylvias for my first time and it is badass! First of all they built that place for families from the layout to the bathroom. The bathroom has a urinal lower than the average one for kids and then this step stool built in that goes up and down for kids to wash their hands and the place was family central going off. Anyways on to the food, I got the fish tacos and they were amazing. Dari gave me one of her vegan tamales which was great as well. Scott had me try a piece of steak and Henry Jumping even shared his chicken with me. The tortillas are homemade and and the chips, geeezz! It is in Berkeley and great so go get some, here's Picante's Link!!

I still do that (not as much anymore). Not high though. High on High life. Has anyone else noticed Gilman is full of angry high school wrestling type kids now? Not that they were never there, but they are more prevalent now.

AlannaCA Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I've been cooking up a storm these last 2 weeks!!! so much food, too bad all y'all live so far away, i tend to make enough food for an army. I've made: chicken chili with lots of veggies, corn and its kind of sweet spicy butternut squash soup.....mmm so heart-warming! vegetarian lasagnia with cabbage leaves instead of pasta. its so tasty and guilt free too! Cornish hens stuffed with cornbread chorizo stuffing and served with maroccan barley risotto italian zucchini patties. they are usually fryed in a lot of oil but i used Pam spray instead and it worked! Roasted beet and carrot latkas with caraway creme frais chicken Pad thai made from scratch( no store bought sauce) vegetarian and/or turkey filled cabbage rolls sauteed veggies(onions,peppers, zucchini, baked sweet potato) coated in homemade tomato sauce topped with crispy polenta rounds. finished with melted cheese. on the dessert front: i tried a new vanilla cake recipe (im always trying new and interesting recipes) cranberry and pistachio biscotti drizzled with white chocolate i've been also collecting old recipes from family and coworkers like in my family whenever there is a baptism, wedding shower, wedding or any significant event there are always italian cookies. i've been picking up recipies as i go and collected a new one last weekend. its a flakey cookies dough with wrapped around a dollop of nutella. they are then rolled in sugar while still warm! my co-woker gave me a simple cookies recipe that is a very easy sandwich cookie with dulce de leche in the middle then rolled in coconut! OMG recently i took a trip with a friend to the Lindt Chocolate factory and i bought 15lbs of different types of melting chocolates. i have been experimenting with them and making truffles and filled chocolates. ya know praticing what i learned in school so i dont get rusty! :) if any of whats written above makes your mouth water and you want the recipe ill be happy to post it!

tammy Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 alanna, i love cake and baking....can you post the dulce de leche recipe...i love caramel and coconut so sounds like a winner. also how was your vanilla cake recipe. i am always looking for the perfect basics recipes (vanilla cake, chocolate cake, cookies, pound cake). one of my friends has this amazing food blog that is about traditional mexican food...she is also a photog and writer so it is very well done. http://theothersideofthetortilla.com/ Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/259-food-and-drink-list/?page=6#findComment-6059 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlannaCA Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 yep yep, slow n low but that is for meat so don't know if you would want to do that with vegan stuff as the veggies would become mushy....hmmmmm, don't know if I can help. Tammy? Alanna?Anytime I've made vegan or vegatarian soups I've gone more on the food processor/puree side..... as far as i know you can make a good veggie stock in a crock pot but just make sure that you dont use veggies that disintegrate. i made a really really tasty red lentil soup with carrot and celery in the crock pot and it honestly tastes like chicken soup but it was vegan Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/259-food-and-drink-list/?page=6#findComment-6060 Share on other sites More sharing options...

dari Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Roasted beet and carrot latkas with caraway creme frais a simple cookies recipe that is a very easy sandwich cookie with dulce de leche in the middle then rolled in coconut! I need both of these myself, and I'll figure out a way to make them vegan. (I've had caramel made w/ coconut milk not so long ago, it was amazing!) Thanks for all the yummy thoughts in my head Alanna!
