foodness.

too lazy to find a picture to post today. i had a great weekend, filled with food and baseball. what else could a girl ask for?

friday. dinner @ r+d kitchen in santa monica with manza & dawn.

saturday. lunch @ din tai fung with some coworkers. i heart the stetsons and their boys. dodgers vs. brewers exhibition game @ dodger stadium.

sunday. lunch @ huckleberry. i had the cured salmon sandwich, dan had the turkey meatball sandwich. sunday supper @ suzanne goin's lucques in melrose with the rents, mike & dan. everything was absolutely fantastic and spot on. this was the menu:

appetizer
leafy green salad with buttermilk, soft herbs and avocado

entree
grilled coho salmon with potato cake, cucumber salad, meyer lemon and mint yogurt
or
braised jidori chicken with hand-cut noodles, asparagus, green garlic and wild mushrooms

dessert
crème fraîche semifreddo with schaner farms' citrus

mike got me goin's sunday supper cook book, and my mom got me a little japanese apron (from her and my dad's recent trip to japan) that maybe can pass as a cute shirt/dress thing. plus watched the phillies get trampled for baseball's opening day. goodness i hate them.

monday. homemade turkey meatballs in a blueberry balsamic bbq sauce (recipe here). really freaking good.
