Not yet. I've seen it through a lot of online retailers though.

A recent creation of mine - Buffalo Chicken Risotto. One of my many controversial risotto-fusion dishes...I really must open a pop-up in Camden some day. The Cheeseburger Risotto and Full English Breakfast Risotto also stir up some debate.

I'll be uploading the recipe to the blog soon enough.

Funny. This made me remember that I would love having a blueberry muffin in the morning when I was in school. They had good muffins with big blueberries. And the muffin wasn't a cake type sweet muffin. I'm guessing it was some kind of bran muffin.

And for some reason, I would cut the muffin almost in half and put in butter. Then microwave it for a while. It was great. But I never did that on any other muffin because they just weren't as good. Now I have to find or attempt to make a similar muffin.

Fried zucchini. Oil, butter, egg, flour, salt, pepper, curry. Pretty good. Hadnt made it in years. Cooked on the grill last week, burned a lot of them. I think they tasted better on the grill, but it's tricky cooking it enough without burning it.

Yesterday we had some of this pork belly lechon (phillipino style, cooked over coals) delivered from a relatively local facebook marketplace business.
I have to say I'm quite impressed by some of the talent on there, and I guess since covid has been fucking around a lot of people have had to consider other options...me, I'm soaking it up.
Anyways, it's basically roasted marinated pork belly with a super crispy skin, served with spicy, tangy dipping sauce.
It was amazing - Check out your locals, seriously.

Right now I am having some english breakfast/earl grey tea.

Lebanese bread folded and grilled with some spicy chorizo bought from a local weekly market, vegetarian (not vegan) cheese, slices swiss brown and button mushrooms, fresh basil, salt, pepper, and a little bit of kewpie.
