Week of February 23rd

Saturday:

• We are headed to a new local restaurant tonight with friends. I have been looking forward to testing out Fleet Street Kitchen for weeks now, so expect a review to follow shortly. 

——————————————-

Sunday:

• Today will be a Burmese food extravaganza. I am finally diving into my new cookbook, “Burma; Rivers of Flavor” by Naomi Duguid. 
• Kachin-pounded beef with fresh herbs. The author describes this dish as, “one of the most unusual and delicious dishes I have ever come across.” How can I resist? 
• Eggplant Delight (Recipe to come)
• Crunchy Burmese ginger salad

——————————————-

Monday:

• Pan-roasted brined pork chops (brine these the day before and you are all set for a quick weeknight dinner). 
• Wilted red cabbage with sherry wine vinegar and toasted caraway seeds

——————————————-

Tuesday:

• Leftover Burmese food

——————————————-

Wednesday:

• Market fresh fish (whatever Mr. Fishmonger recommends today).
• Fennel and orange salad with red onion and fresh mint

——————————————-

Thursday:

• Leftover Burmese food (if there is any), otherwise I will whip something up on the spot. Likely a simple frittata with vegetables and cheese.

Friday:

• Friday night date night! We are going out.
