Lunche Munche

This is what we had at work today for lunch for our two hour meeting. These are empanadas from El Sur! My favs are the #parisien, and the #champinones.  #argentina #delicious, #empanadas, #food, #foodie, #foodporn, #lunchemunche, #lunchtime, #workcatered http://www.elsursf.com/ EMAIL INFO@ELSURSF.COM PHONE 415 530 2803 ADDRESS 300 DE HARO STE. 342 SAN FRANCISCO, CA

The other night was craving some chocolate chip cookies, saddly didn't have any chips on hand (have to restock the pantry I guess!).  Did find some dark chocolate bars, so threw it in a gallon sized zipper bag, covered it in a tea towel (don't forget to bring a towel!), and went all medieval on them until they were nice sized chunks.  Whipped up the normal tollhouse recipe and used proper soften butter this time around to cream the sugar vs doing what I did last time, which was nuke the frozen butter too much to where it went liquid, which resulted in thin and crispy cookies.  With the soften butter these were more "cakey" and didn't spread as much. :) #baking, #cookies, #darkchocolate, #delicious, #food, #foodie #chocolate, #foodporn, #homemade, #lunchemunche, #tollhouse 

$12.90 Chicken And Ginger Curry Extra HOT!!! (tax and tip not included) I make a point of mentioning that the meal I received was labeled "EXTRA HOT" but sadly it was one of the mildest curry dishes I've had to date.   I'm not a spice fanatic but when its labeled EXTRA HOT on the menu I expect something a bit more than a slight tingle on the tongue, and being that they are warning me on the menu I shouldn't have to ask for it to be "extra spicy" for it to be EXTRA HOT!  My friends normal curry dish was more spicy. Don't get me wrong its a tasty dish, but as I described to my friend, its not a curry I can see myself craving like I do with normal Thai or Indian cuisine.  I will go back to the Curry House, but next time around I think i'll just get the normal curry meals, perhaps with seafood!

Looks like Alton Brown is going back to his Good Eats roots he teased a bit online  today.  From all reports it seems its going to be a web series and not on TV.  Back in  the day Good Eats was a Food Network staple, until he branched out and started working on other projects, to some dismay of lots of fans when he delved into  the "reality tv genere".  Here is hope this new series is going to bring back the classic character and format we all fell in love with.  WOOT!

12.50 for beef/noodle 5.00 for Wonton (tax and tip not included) Chef Hung Taiwanese Beef Noodle 19369 Stevens Creek Blvd #100, Cupertino, CA 95014 chefhungnoodle.com (408) 899-2511 11AM–3PM, 5–10PM Around lunchtime a few of us decided to check out the new beef noodle place #ChefHung here in Cupertino, CA.  I ended up deciding on two items Braised Beef Shank w/Noodle and a Wonton w/Spicy Sauce.  Each was labeled with a chili pepper icon so I assumed it would be "spicy".  Sadly neither dish was spicy in the least, and a quick poll of the table of the other spicy dishes ordered also confirmed that there was zero spice.   With that said they did have flavorings to "enhance" the spicy on the table and in the end I completely forgot to add additional spice to actually make it spicy, but if its labeled on the menu as spicy I expect it to BE spicy!   The dishes were very good however, but if you were't versed in how a fresh han...

$20.82 with tax and tip added Staff is super friendly, cozy place good atmosphere, comfortable seating, staff gave me a free Thai Iced Tea when my order got mixed up, (was just slightly slower than I was expecting, which is no big deal, and wasn't "thai hot", which I didn't mention, so they gave me the Thai Iced Tea for the perceived slowness, so great staff! The Duck Panang Curry was delish, despite lack of any real heat, and plentiful pieces of duck and other fresh veggies throughout dish.  Lunch special came with soup and salad as well!  Its a bit out of the way for me but worth the drive for some decent Thai food!

$54.90 (3 orders + tax + Beverage) I was up in south-ish San Francisco for the company I work for quarterly meeting and sales kick off event.  After the presentation a few of us broke off from the lunch provided to indulge in some tasty sea food.  So we went to the New England Lobster Market & Eatery as it was 5 min walk from the hotel.  I ended up ordering three menu items, I thought if I was going to try this place out I'd get the three main staples.  I got the Twin Tails, which are just two lobster tails, butter, coleslaw and a half roll (which its the same roll that you get when you order a lobster roll).  The second item was the lobster roll, dressed, which also comes with coleslaw and chips(made in house).  The third item was the lobster corn chowder.   All the items had plenty of lobster, which were delicious, and the place is set up with picnic tables both inside and out for seating and has a...
