This post is overly due, mainly because I was too lazy to hit the publish button…

Many, many weeks ago, I made an impromptu trip to San Francisco. Nearly everyone who you talk to who’s visited will gush about how awesome San Francisco is- the temperate weather, all the awesome food, the unique characteristics of each part of the city and the vibrant culture.  The bar was set pretty high; despite gusty winds and a downpour for the first day, I fell in love with the city.

Transamerica Pyramid- I need a wider lens!

Chinatown

Day 1- This was a very hands-off-the-camera trip. Most of the wandering was done on foot, helped by a couple of friends who were gracious enough to take me around to their favorite sights and restaurants. But there were some moments when I just couldn’t resist taking out that camera. The first was when we arrived at Swensen’s. It was an unexpected visit, but we happened upon this popular ice-creamery as we were walking to the cable car.

There were enough intriguing flavors to make you stop and seriously think- I mean, bordeaux cherry? turkish coffee?! almond chocolate malt?! I ended up sampling the turkish coffee, which reminded me of Starbuck’s Java Chip ice cream but less sweet and slightly more bitter, as well as the swiss orange chip.

Holy cow.

Swiss orange chip. Talk about a perfect harmony of rich and velvety chocolate cut through by the acidic orange.

It was to die for.

Swiss Chocolate Orange Chip- 1 scoop for $2.95

This is a must try for any chocolate/orange lover!

About a ten minute walk from Swensen’s was the cable car stop by Lombard St (home to the most crooked and windiest street in the world). Shielded by a barrier of trees is actually a public tennis court that offers majestic views of the bay, including the Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman’s Wharf, and Ghirardelli Square.

Day 2- After brunch with a friend at Samovar Teahouse, I was determined to explore the city on foot. By the time I reached the wharf, I was exhausted but I knew the real prize was ahead- Ghirardelli Square. I mean, I could sacrifice my feet for some chocolate, yeah? Of course, I had no idea what was in the Square- I figured there had to be some chocolate.

I get there and I realize that there’s a GIANT line for the cafe. That’s out of the question. Then I see a little cafe with no line. Why? Cause it sold ice cream.

Low 50 degree weather with whipping wind. Do I get ice cream?

Then I look up and the heavens smiled at me. CUPCAKE SHOP!!!

I practically glided to the entrance with glee. Inside there was an assortment of red velvet, chocolate velvet, passion fruit, banana caramel, passion fruit, meyer lemony lemon and fleur de sel. It was such a tough choice, choosing between the last two. I finally opted for the lemon, given that I had just consumed a giant loaf of sourdough bread at Boudin’s and was craving for something fruity.

Meyer Lemony Lemon Cupcake ($3.25)

To be honest- it was the filling that saved the day. The frosting was very light (which is good as it wasn’t terribly sweet) but the cake itself was on the drier side. I think that Sprinkles triumphs Kara’s with the cake but Kara’s wins frosting and filling.

HOWEVER, Howard had been raving about Blue Bottle Co., and lucky me, Kara’s carried it! The lady at Kara’s spent a bit of time explaining to me that the coffee is made through a drip process and Blue Bottle offers classes to its distributors to teach how to properly brew the coffee. She also offered me decadent heavy cream, which I graciously took. That cup of coffee is by far the best filtered coffee I’ve ever had!

A 12oz coffee is $2.00

Overlooking Ghirardelli Square and the Bay

As I marveled at just how rich and creamy that cup of coffee was, the weather started to change and tiny drops began to rain. In the process, the wind picked up, and with my inability to multitask, balance a camera, and carry my shopping bags, I spilled a good chunk of the coffee. Sadness.

Interestingly, just as fast as the drizzle came, the sun peeked out again. The sky went from blue to blinding yellow, just like that.

On the first day, I went to GOTTs, which serves a MEAN burger. I didn’t get a chance to go back until the morning of my last day. In my attempt to get one last burger before I left, I neglected to consider that few people eat burgers for breakfast. Luckily, Gott’s had a breakfast menu, which although sparse, has items to fill that grease pit in your stomach.

Southern: Buttermilk fried chicken tenders, scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese & charred jalapeno mayo ($5.99)

Really, if you’re going to put buttermilk fried chicken on the breakfast menu, why can’t you put down a juicy burger too while you’re at it?! In any case, this thing was fulfilling and left me with guilty conscious.  There was nothing particularly glorious about this sandwich- it tasted the way you’d expect chicken tenders to taste. The chicken isn’t particularly crispy but is a definite upgrade from Wendy’s chicken nuggets. The egg is fluffy and the cheese overflowed, dripping beyond the borders of the crust. The sandwich could have used a bit more of that jalapeno mayo, but I’m sure my blood vessels beg to differ.

You can’t see it, but I also got some Hash Browns (crispy, golden potato triangles, $1.99), which were unfortunately, short of anything exciting. In fact, they were quite disappointing. Not that I expect hash browns to taste spectacular, but Micky D’s has better hash browns.

Within the Ferry building (which is where Gott’s was), there’s a bunch of small one-off vendors. It’s here that I got some awesome Weck Jars. People have been contacting me to ask where I got them- there’s a Heath Ceramics in the Ferry Building. If I recall correctly, the jars were under $2.00

There are also a few other places worth mentioning in terms of good eats.

• RN740- this is an urban wine bar and it’s a beauty. A bit on the pricier side, but I had my first bone marrow here. The Herb Roasted Marrow Bones, served with Fattoria Bread and Bacon Marmalade was $12.00.  As the great Cat Chao would like to say, bone marrow is essentially human butter. My gracious hosts let me choose two appetizers and while the thought of eating bone marrow sorta freaked me out, I figured it was then or never. Luckily, I got over the thought and actually enjoyed it. The second app was the Maitake Mushroom Tempura, served with Scallion Mousseline and Yuzu salt for $11.00.  What a hit! A must for those who are less adventurous. The restaurant also serves a very good Artic Char (think salmon-like color and taste) for $27, served over gnocchi, which was actually the best prepared gnocchi I’ve ever had. (website, menu)
• Samovar Teahouse- a real gem of a place, en-capsuled in tall glass windows  in the Yerba Buena Gardens. Reeks of Zen. Anyhow, the Ginger Quinoa Waffle, served with fresh fruit and housemade vanilla infused palm nectar (Available until 3 p.m.) for $12 is a definite must.  Doesn’t taste that much different from regular waffles but it’s the after-feeling. You don’t feel bloated or guilty.   (website, menu)

The pull and tug between winter and spring has finally marked its toll on me. After my daily morning run on Monday, I stepped out of the shower with a seemingly endless leaky nose. I thought I had outsmarted my symptoms with plenty of rest, but alas, on Thursday, the throat began to itch and the bones started to ache. Luckily, the onset of Friday brought an opportunity of uninterrupted sleep. On this lazy Saturday, nothing  gives me more pleasure than the excuse of curling up in bed with my laptop, next to a cup of tea for some seriously overdue blogging.

A couple of Saturdays ago, Rachel invited me to a Thai New Years party, hosted by Phensri of “Fantastic Thai Cuisine.” If you know Rachel, you know that she loves all things Asian. Combine that with cooking, and you have a perfect match made in heaven. Needless to say, Rachel raved about the Thai class at our weekly Friday gatherings.

A little background on Phensri’s classes- She offers them in various locations in New Jersey (including Old Bridge and Princeton) as well as in NYC (Greenwich Village). Her regular classes range from $60-$100 depending on the location and all ingredient fees are included. Classes are structured so that every individual gets to prep, cook, and of course, eat!

We arrived at around 3:30pm to help prep for the official 6:30pm feasting. No hands were spared. While I dawdled a bit, snapping shots here and there, Phensri eventually entrusted me with the Chicken Satay. It was my job to put them on skewers. In general, we were able to get two pieces of chicken breast onto the skewers, as you want to leave at least 1.5-2 inches on the bottom for handling purposes. The top of the skewer should be buried in the chicken (we don’t want anything burning on the coals).

We let Justin handle the grilling. No comments there…

Just kidding. Look at how wonderfully that batch came out!

Meanwhile, as I was skewering, Rachel shared the task of making these curry puffs filled with beef. They’re similar to samosas and empanadas, but to be honest, they’re the most bangin’ version I’ve ever had. The spice from the curry is an awesome explosion in the mouth. I think I overdosed on these, which led me to become incredibly full before dinner even started. It also didn’t help that I was sitting next to the fryer. Oops.

Pre-frying. Because they were so good, I forgot to take pictures post-frying. Silly me.

Following the curry puff making, we started on vegetarian spring rolls. Despite how they look, they’re super easy and quick to make. You can buy a pack of spring roll wrappers at your local Asian mart for under $2, and fill them with whatever you want. Scoop the filling onto a bottom corner and fold up to cover the filling. Then, sweep in the left and right fold so that only one corner is left and roll upwards. Eventually, you’ll end up with a spring roll!

Vegetable Spring Roll: Deep fried with stir fried vegetable and glass noodles wrapped with spring roll skin, served with sweet chili sauce

The lady of the night who made everything possible- Phensri!

The last of the appetizers was the most anticipated and took the longest- Shrimp in a Blanket! Phensri literally bought a giant box of shrimp. They come frozen and you defrost them by running through cold water. You have to shell and devein them and in this case, pare them in half so that they can lie flat on the spring roll wrappers. Phensri then scooped a chicken mixture that she premade before rolling. To seal the “blanket,” mix a bit of cornstarch and water, and dunk your fingers and apply on the tip of the wrapper.

Despite being super critical of himself, Justin turned out some pretty fantastic looking Shrimp in a Blanket.

The night was a blast and many thanks to Rachel for the invitation. Like many of these events that I attend, the night was marked by serendipity. First, after some methodical but painful deducing, a woman and I figured out that her son and I graduated from the same college. While I didn’t recognize his name at the time, upon some stalking (via Facebook), I realized that I have actually met her son through friends. Even more random was how I realized that a lady who I had been talking to for a good while was standing next to a very familiar looking man- that man taught at my middle school and was one of the most feared science teachers in the 7th grade. I ended the night by drinking wine that he now makes in his retired life.

Anyhow, if you’re interested in Thai cooking and you’re in the area, be sure to check out Phensri’s website. Everyone who she invited to the party was a student, and needless to say, they were all extremely friendly and inviting. They all had great things to say about the class and some have been long-time students. I’m adding the class onto my post June 2 bucket list.

Sometimes as we’re struggling, we tend to overthink. When things are smooth sailing, we forget why things are so easy.

I love the spring and fall seasons. They’re my favorite. This year, spring arrived particularly early, which has confused the trees. Following an out-pour of blossoms, trees line throughout the Garden State have retained hues of red and orange. I thought it was fall again.

This afternoon, Clare and I took advantage of the lovely 63 degree F weather by biking along the Jersey shore. We started at Sandy hook, where we saw kite-surfers zig-zagging through the water at dizzying speeds and the occasional tanner enjoying the sun. Clare and I were among the many who biked along the shore.

We started out on a leisurely pace. Ten minutes went by, then thirty minutes, then fifty minutes- we had barely even broke a sweat and arrived in Long Branch, which is roughly 10 miles south of Sandy Hook. “Wow,” we marveled at each other. “That was pretty easy. We didn’t even go that fast and we’re already at Long Branch. Maybe we can ride down further to Asbury Park.”  Luckily, I had to arrive home at a certain time so we turned around and decided to pick up the pace. Thirty seconds into it, I realized something was different.

Why was the wind smacking me in the face, and why is it so much harder to pedal?

Both of us were ready to collapse by the time we made it back.

Our first leg of the ride wasn’t easy because months of spin class had made us fit. It was because we had giant tailwinds that pushed us along. And we paid for those tailwinds on the way back… Too bad we didn’t think about why that first leg was so easy.

Long Branch, NJ in the summer
I can’t wait for summer where the beach is only a quick car-ride away. Jersey is just so beautiful.

Before our trip, Clare said something interesting and worth noting. Whether or not we’re in a season of our lives that we’d like to be in, we should still enjoy our time because once we transition into a new season, that old season is never coming back. Eventually, we’ll start missing parts of that season, no matter how joyful the new season may be. Sometimes, I think about those college years when I traded leisure time for extra cramming time. There are times when I regret not taking advantage of my time as a college student living in the city. I never dreamed I’d be moving back to the suburbs. Yet, here I am. And while I love Jersey and the suburb way of life, I envy those who have the world at their fingertips in the form of multicultural restaurants, street festivals, and crummy subway systems. I wished I had taken the time to enjoy some of that stuff more.

I decided a few weeks ago that I’m going to make this year count. It’s not that I didn’t make the past few years count. In fact, those were some of my happiest years. But I don’t know where I’ll be going in the years ahead. Maybe it’ll be just a bus ride away to New York City or maybe it’ll be to the West Coast. But whatever happens, I’m sure my next season will have me too busy to have this much leisure time. This year, I’m going to make my time in Jersey count. I’m going to cook and improve my photography as much as I can. I’m going to go on 20 mile bike rides along the Jersey Shore on Saturday mornings because I can. I’m going to play more beach volleyball because I can. I’m going to enjoy this season in my life, rather than fret about the coming seasons. Because when will there ever be time to enjoy any season if that’s the mentality?

And so, it was with great determination that I finally hunted down a MINIATURE CAST IRON SKILLET! I’ve been looking everywhere for one of these. I did find one wherever I looked, but I couldn’t justify shelling out $20 for a skillet that could barely make enough to feed one. $5 was better. Of all places, I found it all Marshalls. I snagged it and ran to the checkout counter. I was so happy.

This morning, my stomach woke up eagerly because it knew what was coming- baked eggs. It would be an understatement to say that I have literally been DREAMING OF BAKED EGGS for the longest time. I was a damn shame I didn’t have chorizo because it would have been super epic. Oh wells, there’s always next time.

These baked eggs came out FABULOUSLY and were better than I imagined. There’s no bacon or sausage, which is why even I was surprised how wonderfully delicious these turned out. This is a must for anyone who enjoys a savory breakfast.

Baked eggs with coarse dijon
Serves 1

Ingredients

• 1 russet potato, peeled and diced into 1/2 inch cubes
• 1/2 onion, sliced into rings.
• 1 egg
• 2 teaspoons of coarse dijon mustard
• Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• Parsley
• Salt & Petter
• Olive oil

Method

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

In a saucepan, boil water and season the water with a generous handful of salt. Let the potatoes boil in the water for about four minutes or until slightly tender. You don’t want the potatoes to still have that hard crunch, but you don’t want it to be overly soft either. The potatoes will also continue cooking once you drain the water. After the potatoes are drained, add olive oil (~1 -2 tbp) into a skillet on low-medium heat. You’ll want to taste the potatoes to make sure they’re properly seasoned. If not, this is your chance to season them with some salt.  Cook the potatoes until they crisp on the edges and turn brown. After, move the potatoes into another bowl.

Add more olive oil (~1 tbp) to the skillet and add the onion. Cook until they start caramelizing, which should take about 10 minutes. You want to keep an eye on the fire. The onions shouldn’t burn or char. Instead, they should gradually turn limp and brown as they release their sugar. When the onions are done, add back the potatoes. Then, add in your 2 teaspoons of coarse dijon mustard and mix until the dijon is incorporated into the onions and potatoes. Make a well between the potatoes and onions and crack an egg. Season the egg with salt & pepper. Transfer the skillet into your preheated oven and leave it in there for about 5 minutes. The time is dependent on how you like your yolk. Like it runny? Make sure you check it after 3 minutes. Like it less runny and more solid? Leave it in longer and so forth.

When serving, garnish with parsley and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

And do be cautious. The skillet will be HOT upon arrival from the oven.

In early September of 2011, we celebrated the union of two spectacular individuals. The joyous day was highlighted by great company, food and some crazy dancing. Little did I know that I’d be having dinner at a Colombian bakery with the guy below, who happened to be the one capturing the momentous occasion.  

Meet Jon Tan, one of the two photographers at Dreamlite Photography. Jon is a spectacular wedding photographer, particularly given that he is so young- then again, artists come from all ages and backgrounds. Jon and I share a similar set of friends as Facebook kindly pointed out. After the wedding, a few more friends were added to the list. When Jon saw photos on the blog from a dumpling tutorial fundraiser that his clients hosted, he reached out to me.  A few emails later, we made dinner happen with Mark.

Jon is a lover of all things Hispanic and Latin American. He’s ‘fairly competent’ in Spanish, having traveled to Latin America several times and living there for months. Jon recently traveled to Honduras, where he worked on documentaries for Signs of Love. It’s no surprise that he’s the one who introduced me to Colombian food.

For the typical American, the words ‘Colombian’ and ‘food’ don’t pop up in the same sentence very often. I’ve had Mexican (if you count the Big Enchilada on 12th St in NYC) and Argentine food, but never Colombian. When I chose from the list of restaurants that he listed, I didn’t realize that I’d picked a literal bakery.

Calima Bakery is tucked in a strip shop center right across from Sam Ash on Rt 27 in Edison. It’s an obscure place, but it’s clear that locals know about it. While they do serve hot food, their showcase houses desserts and pastries.  There is no official menu and items are written on paper plates hanging from racks behind the register. A whiteboard displays the specials of the day. A pithy number of stools provide for some scant seating. This is not a place for dawdling. Yet, we managed to stay for three hours.

Calima Bakery: Specials of the day ($7.50)

Monday: Beef or braised chicken w/ tripe or plantain soup
Tuesday: Beef tongue in salsa or beef w/ peppers w/ lentil soup
Wednesday:  Flank steak in salso or braised chicken w/ vegetable soup
Thursday: Ground beef w/ chicken or bean soup
Friday: “Short ribs in the oven” or rice w/ chicken w/ chicken noodle soup
Saturday: “Paisa platter” w/ grilled meat or ground beef/beans w/ rib soup
Sunday: Traditional Colombian soup made w/ chicken and plantain served w/ a fresh tomato and onion sauce

Warning- nothing is in English, but once in awhile, a customer will pipe up and offer an English translation if he happens to overhear. When we arrived, they ran out of empanadas and their famous chicharrón (fried pork belly), but lucky for us, they were in the process of making more. We ordered some empanadas, one ‘serving’ of chicharrón each and an entree each.  We stuck with their regular “menu” as the thought of tripe is really quite frightful (Monday’s special).

Carne asada con chicharrón y arepa: grilled meat w/ fried pork belly and corn cake
Aji: green salsa
Chicharrón: fried pork belly
Platanos con arroz y chicharrón: plantains with rice and fried pork belly

The food is cheap. I can’t remember exactly what each dish cost but it was between $4 and $8. All together for the above, we paid under $22 for the three of us. Super cheap. The food may be served on plastic trays and paper plates, but it is bangin’.

• Chicharrón:  This is an absolute must. Think about those thick Canadian bacon strips that they serve at a steakhouse but BETTER. It’s literally a long strip of sectioned bacon, held together by crispy skin. Each section has a good amount of fat. I can’t even explain how divine it was. Eating one of these is nearly as bad as eating a half of pack of bacon because of all the fat. But I assure you that it is soooo worth it.
• Huervos Pericos:  Given that I’ve never had this, it was a pleasant surprise. I’m never one to discriminate against eggs, but the scrambled eggs were cooked perfectly- light and fluffy and the seasoning was spot on. The combination of the egg with the arepa/cheese and the fried pork belly resembled a ridiculous over the top breakfast sandwich, Colombian style.  Arepas are sorta like corn tortillas but thicker.
• Empanadas: They’re made with ground beef and potatoes and the shell is made of corn. Honestly, not Calima’s best item but decent. For me, the potatoes were too mushy.

Hervos pericos con chicharrón y arepa: scrambled egg w/ tomato and scallions w/ fried pork belly and corn cake

While I can’t speak for Jon and Mark’s entrees, I can say that we finished every bite. This is one of those places where you order your food, eat it at the counter and then pay.  You don’t see that in alot of places nowadays. While I don’t recommend that you sit here and have dinner for three hours, it’s definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area and want to try something new (like the chicharrón!!!).  I also hear the pastries are quite good. Just make sure you don’t get lost coming here.

Is it terrible that I’ve succumbed to guilty pleasures? It’s as if a switch turned off a couple of weeks ago. Instead of waking up early to squeeze in a few minutes of study time, I’ve been hitting the snooze button. Instead of hitting the books on weekend mornings at Starbucks, I’ve been plowing through season 7 of Grey’s Anatomy. I’m already nearly through episode 13. Amazon Prime is the killer of all motivation.

Cool Whip is also a guilty pleasure, not that I’ve had it many times. At the store today, they had both the “sugar free version” and the “regular” version. Without giving it a second thought, I reached for the “regular” version. Figured that I’d choose a heart attack over cancer. At least you’re out in one shot.

My motivation for making this dessert was purely due to the lack of having any motivation to beat eggs or to have to clean off the specks of flour on my camera. Instead, I pulled a Sandra Lee today. Within five minutes, I was in and out of the local Shop-Rite, with Angel Cake and Cool Whip in the backseat and ready to rock.

Angel Food Cake: $2.99
Cool Whip: $1.99
Box of Strawberries: $3.99
Total Cost: ~$9.00
Total Time: ~10 minutes

Clearly, this would be an economist’s favorite recipe. Reducing down on opportunity cost for time with keeping raw costs to a minimum without sacrificing taste.

Hat tip to the lovely Jenna for this recipe. She brought it a couple of weeks back to our weekly Friday dinners at Group. Her trifle was bursting with blues and reds, between the strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries she added. Add whatever fruit you want, but I stuck to a classic combination of strawberries and bananas. It must have been good because Glen ate half of it in one sitting and Clare kept reaching for more despite her better judgement.

Satisfyingly delicious

Semi-Homemade Angel Food Cake Strawberry Trifle
Serves 8

Ingredients:
8 oz Cool Whip (1 container)
1 Pint Strawberries
1 Banana
1 Angel Food Cake

Method:

Cut the cake into cubes. The best way of doing this is slicing through the cake horizontally into three slices, once through the middle vertically, and then in once inch increments. See below.

There are two ways of presenting this dessert. If you have a giant clear glass bowl, then you can layer each of the ingredients one by one. First put a generous layer of the Cool Whip, top with a handful of berries and cubes of cake, more Cool Whip, more fruit/cake, repeat until supply is exhausted.

However, if you don’t have a clear bowl (like me) but want to present it the way shown below, you need two bowls- one big and one small. Layer the ingredients into the small bowl as instructed above but save some Cool Whip. Then, take the larger bowl and cover the smaller bowl. Carefully flip the bowls so that the smaller bowl with the trifle is now upside down in the larger bowl. Wiggle the smaller bowl slightly so that the trifle slips out. Top the cake with some Cool Whip and garnish with shaved chocolate. This also works on a large plate too (though it’ll get messy when you scoop it).
