Casa Mono
Irving Place
New York, NY
After more than 6 or 7 times, Casa Mono is still yummy, inviting, cool, sensational and consistent.
And who knew bread pudding could be so delicious?

The Cheese Plate
Marissa and I were just supposed to have a drink. But then they brought out these
Chicken livers and crusty bread, which were so delicious and

Fatty Crab
Fatty Crab
Hudson
New York, NY
Pork Tea Sandwiches, with crusts cut off
Baby Bok Choy
Chinese Broccoli with the Fish Sausage
Fatty Duck
Some day, when I am 57 and Kai is 67, I hope to be able to go to spciy joints like Fatty Crab and eat noodles and shredded pork like the couple sitting very close to us. They inhaled several garlicky, fish saucy, fiery chilies dishes. With chopsticks. Like pros. No caution. He wore a navy sports jacket, there may have been gold buttons, I'm not sure. She had tastefully coiffed hair and a smart, seasonal dress. I'd like to be more like them and less like the sluggish, elastic waistband and wrinkle free fabric folks that I so often see.

Honga's
Honga's
Telluride, CO
edamame
calamari
fried rice
wok vegetables
the portions are enormous. so is the new space. i can't believe that the imtimate dining room has moved to what looks like one of those big, colorful italian joints near time square.
the sea salt on the edamame made them extra delicious, and i kept thinking about how i never dust sea salt on the edamame in my own freezer. im sure that they microwave these too, so why the bias?
the plate of calamari was enough for 4 people; beer batter? panko? the arugula salad was misleading, since it was 3 or 4 leaves crushed under the pepper pickles. hot and sweet.
the "mains" were a disgrace. dry fried rice with bits of chinese sausage and dry beef. sad. and the wok vegetables were just plain disappointing. i tasted garlic, soy, basil, heat, salt, spice, but not at all satisfying.
are these restaurants like a drug? i recall honga's being so extremely delicious that i'd made it a point to have my first dinner in telluride at honga's.
