  1. A Vietnamese play on birria tacos...these are "pho" style. (had to edit...spellcheck got the better of me) Really could have used a hot sauce like sriracha on the side for some kick, but I did like the dish conceptually. From the Blind Goat here in Houston. Overrated IMHO despite all the foodie pundits... HS
  2. Well, it had to be done. Udon at Ishin...so good. They do a lot of fusion style Udon and this one is brisket and.....ginger. I only need so much ginger in my life so I ask for it on the side. If in Houston, Ishin Udon and the Tan Tan bowl there is amazing if you like spicy and are good with pork. HS
  3. I need some Asian in my life after seeing those dumplings...yummy chow! I just opened myself up for a doozy...LOL. It's a bit of a poop show here in that there's construction in Asia Town (often referred to as China Town but it's grown well beyond that). Just down the road from me but horrific traffic...I need to hit the back roads for some spicy Udon or some Ramen... Grahame has yet again left me peckish... HS
  4. I've got a few AWD vehicles outside of an old Land Cruiser...I'm a fan. One is a stick car and the other two overpowered SUV's. Love it. HS
  5. The motor is impressive. A lot of things there are. I know this would have added A LOT of complexity, but....AWD. Most likely would have been a hybrid setup but boy oh boy the probability of putting all that mojo to work at the tire would have been something. Sounds like a fun next model... HS
  6. Huge loss! Godspeed, John... HS
  7. Soooooo envious!!! That looks AMAZING, Grahame! I might need to forage today... HS
  8. Only thing better IMHO would be some clotted cream....yum! They look beautiful, Grahame. HS
  9. We had a new restaurant / bar open we have been awaiting, Bar Bludorn. Enjoyed a nice meal Friday night with our son and his girlfriend. Drinks were very good. Love that I didn't have to ask someone to use less can sugar in the old fashioneds. The ham beignets with ricotta and a berry jelly or the like were standout. Wagu smoked brisket rueben also wonderful. The duck was very good but I think the PB&J fried chicken was more interesting. HS
  10. Ditto, Jacob...CONGRATULATIONS!!! Sam
  11. Great attitude, TMoney. Racing is hard on parts and pricey, but what a hoot. Good to go in open eyed and go with the flow. You have a SUPER vehicle for track days and urban assault...fun! I have only raced automatics when I have had little to no choice (i.e. broke what was available or didn't come with auto). Me tracking the SUV straight-line...well, that's just a brain fart on my part but what joy. HS
  12. I can offer that the PDK is the finest automatic I've driven. I said that about Audi's years ago, but I'd argue Porsche's is better. The car would be faster for it. It's just that I need (read: want) some analog in my life... HS
  13. I read the headline on an article indicating this Aston was built for Alonso. Didn't read it through so it might have just been a hook. LOVE that it's a stick car. I was finally "given" an allocation for a 2025 911. Almost fell over when I was told no manual transmission for the 911, 911S or GTS (big hybrid release so that makes sense on the GTS). What a dip... Took me buying the wife a Macan S to "earn" the allocation. I'm guessing they'll be back within a year, but we'll see.... Looks like I'll be hanging onto the 2007 for a while longer....first world problems. HS
  14. He did a great job saving it early on, but that driver's side of the mill looked like it let loose first. I've seen far too many racers fight tech certifiers over safety requirements. Silliness... HS
  15. Godspeed, James Chance (aka James White) of James Chance and the Contortions. Quite the saxophonist amongst other talents... HS
  16. Godspeed, Willie....you made us all better! HS
  17. Banana pudding for a rare lunchtime dessert during my good buddy's b-day outing. After seeing the amphibian alien creature, I figure a little sugar is called for...LOL. HS
  18. They had me at $8 cheeseburger... HS
  19. Are you looking for something like an SUV, DC? I can get through a lot of crap in an AWD jeep grand cherokee but they aren't for everyone. HS
  20. A lot of miles on them and a lot of changes over the years. Nice to see a band continue despite the times… HS
  21. Big Brother and the Holding Company...very cool! HS
  22. Good to see you're feeling better! HS
  23. Godspeed, Parnelli Jones... One heck of a run, sir! https://www.hagerty.com/media/motorsports/when-i-talked-with-parnelli-jones-it-wasnt-about-racing/?utm_source=SFMC&utm_medium=email&utm_content=MED_UN_NA_EML_UN_UN_DailyDriver_Thursday&hashed_email=5a40c51c3d4254d5f58319200ca2ac8bb44b94437291b38bd1d989d5554293b0&dtm_em=5a40c51c3d4254d5f58319200ca2ac8bb44b94437291b38bd1d989d5554293b0 HS
  24. Had some tasty Dorado with Mediterranean spice profile on Miami Beach during a family visit. HS
