Delicious shepards pie....with if i may toot my own horn and say that it was the best gravy i have EVER tasted... i Braised Short ribs in beef stock and wine and with veggies and tomato sauce! it was a whole pile of yummy....took about 8 hours to make but worth every drop :)
Not much left of the blueberry pie! it was wonderful :)
this sunday...not to sure whats on the menu....any suggestions from anyone??
I always have crazy ideas of things to write about on here when i am walking from work the the subway and today i was thinking about how I always get to eat rich food, fine dining style eating, and thats how I have been trained to cook, so its normally how I do things even at home, and i got to thinking about how i miss clean, fresh, simple food! Then i was trying to think of when i had the most simple food of my life...and i would have to say it was when i was in Nicaragua...i have been to the country twice and it is a wonderful place! When i was there i was doing some social justice work so i was living in poor communites and let me tell you...the food....amazing, so simple so fresh....just the food in its natural flavor....perfection! I dont have many pics of the food that we ate but I did come accross in my toronto travels a Nicaraguan Restaurant Called Managua at Bloor and Ossington, right out side the subway exit...if you are ever in toronto TRY THIS PLACE it is the real deal...a taste of Nicaragua!
And as I was thinking this my mind trailed into how AMAZING the city i live in is....I can walk out of my apartment, and take the TTC and head to a restaurant somewhere in the city from pretty much ANY country in the world....i love having authentic food from all over the world just outside my door! basically my point of my post....I LOVE TORONTO :) VIVA CANADA haha
Injoy Foodies :)
