Grahame Posted August 21, 2016 Report Posted August 21, 2016 @Jeff : Mission Accomplished / Priorities @Al : Barefoot Cafe. It hit the spot for me, but all was not sweetness and light. They forgot the crispy rice noodles in Joanne's Chicken Salad, and had to be corrected, and the price on one of the items on the bill was over by $1, which we called them on. YMMV.
Voltron Posted August 21, 2016 Report Posted August 21, 2016 It's pretty good. Haven't had brunch, though. Claire was inspired by Provençal gratins so our own tomatoes and peppers and a squash (not pictured) became a delicious gratin tonight. 7
ironbut Posted August 21, 2016 Report Posted August 21, 2016 (edited) Looks great Al. What are those little green peppers? (or squash) Edited August 21, 2016 by ironbut
Voltron Posted August 21, 2016 Report Posted August 21, 2016 Shisito peppers, both red and green. They're a bit dried up so Claire cut them into strips. Added a little zing. 2

Voltron Posted August 22, 2016 Report Posted August 22, 2016 Forgot to post brunch photos from Dottie's True Blue Café. Starters for the table were whiskey blueberry coffee cake and pecan cinnamon roll. Then I had a fried egg, prosciutto, avocado and provolone breakfast sandwich on a biscuit. 7

VPI Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 Yep. I am all about the InstantPot these days. Today Jalapeño, Mango, Cilantro chicken. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3
VPI Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 It was quite good. Not my typical Mexican food but really great combo of flavors. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1
Dreadhead Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 So what you are telling me is that I now need an instant pot to go along with my other stuff....
Hopstretch Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 I'd wait until there's a way to hook it into a VR rig ... 1

Yes you do. I'll give one simple reason - 6 minute hard boiled eggs that peel like you've never seen an egg peel before. And there are hundreds more reasons.
grawk Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 Can it do servicable sous vide for 1? I'm probably going to be getting an apartment in oak ridge, tn soon, and don't want to take the anova from home to do it, so being able to just get an instant pot to cover multiple bases would be hugely useful.
Absorbine_Sr Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 No sous vide I'm afraid. A lot of other really good uses though. Slow cooker, rice cooker, pressure, you can sear in it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
grawk Posted August 25, 2016 Report Posted August 25, 2016 ok, since I have 2 rice cookers already, I'll start with another sous vide, then get an instant pot after that.
