DMC -

Is that the diner right on RTE 1 near Menlo Park Mall?

But did you need a knife to cut it?

I need to think about this, I went at night and don't really remember, I'll find out.

edit: yes it is, its all glass on the outside and has a bit of a 50's feel to it but inside its actually really modern.

Yeah

Quite a change from the sitdown in August. The loudest thing I remember hearing was DMC proclaiming that the filet mignon was so good that "YOU DON'T EVEN NEED A KNIFE TO CUT IT!!". (He was right).

Now I'm gonna have a big scar.

Tonight was New England Clam Chowder, but I cheated and used canned clams. Still, it came out pretty good.

SC,

I had the Twin Filet Mignons at Skylark Diner not at Panico's.. I haven't been to Panico's since August and I really think I'm due to go back.

You did NOT need a knife for that filet mignon, and I only had about 7 drinks by that point so I knew damn well what I was talking about!

Are you sure it was only seven?

Last night I improvised a steak by moulding together mince with chopped onions and garlic.

A poor man's steak, really, but it was quite delicious.

I had take out pizza last night. I was on late shift and did'nt get in till 10pm so it was easier!
Tonight i am having chicken tagliatelle!
I won't be in till the same time but i don't like eating take out 2 nights on the trot!

Tonight I'm concocting some sort of bolognese chilli dish. Chopped tomatoes, garlic, onions, chilli, mince.

Capo, what exactly is "mince"?

Mince-sorry couldn't find smaller picture.

But is it beef? Or pork? I see from the picture that it is some sort of ground meat, but what kind?

Just got a thing in my mouth to moove my jaw forward so it's hard to eat solid foods! My mates are having a good time ripping me with insults though!

Megan made some stir fry with fresh veggies and everything, it was awesome.

She sounds like she's a great cook.

Its beef.

Good Ol Bangers and Mash with Onion Gravy

Well yeah! Why do you think I married her?

Last night she didn't feel like cooking so we went out to Lucrezia, a small Italian restaurant inside of an old house. (I made a post about local restaurants, it's in there) Had to wait an hour for a non-smoking seat so she got 3 martinis while we waited and I had 3 lemon vodka tonics.

I ordered the lamb shank and it was gooooooood. Also ordered more drinks...

We talked to the people next to us, they were visiting from California so really it was a fun dinner.

Pork Chops,Mashed Potatoes,Yorkshire puddings,peas and Gravy with onions and mushrooms

Burgers and salad!
Simple but tasty!

Pasta e Piselli and artichoke salad.

Last nite I was at another wedding of "Italian Royalty", in addition to the cigar roller for dessert/venetian hour, there was a guy at one of the cocktail stations making mozzarella fresh, loading the curd into the hot salty water, till it melts and plucking smooth round balls of the luscious cheese... got plenty of video footage, wish i could load it on here.. but it was fun... the food at this place is known as some of the best, they win awards every year... ive been to a lot of weddings at this place but this was the most extravagant...

Tonight is Pork Chops, corn bread stuffing, and carrots.

I think she breads the pork chops then bakes them. It's gooooooooooood

Out of desperation, I'm making meatloaf. I hate meatloaf, but I just don't know what to cook anymore.

Corned beef hash and Baked beans not very exciting but i couldnt be arsed to do anything else

Actually had a sit-down with an associate and had brazillian bbq in north jersey at http://greengrillrestaurant.com -- whats not to love about endless sushi, appetizers, and of course the meat runner coming to your table every few minutes with a different type of roitiessire BBQ meat? Keep the brazillian beer coming to wash it down!

Turkey, Mashed Potatoes, Macaroni salad, noodles from scratch, and whatnot
