What are you EATING right now?

That sounds awful, swt61...so sorry.  I had a bad food induced event a couple of months ago and I empathize fully!

 

On a lighter note, we did a PCH tour starting outside SF at Half Moon Bay and ending in Santa Barbara before flying out of LAX.  Lovely trip and we got lucky with the weather...or is that oxymoronic with CA?!?

This was my favorite dish...little neck clams and chorizo...a play on mussels in wine sauce...lovely dish!  The chefs at Pebble Beach can burn!

My favorite driving road I've ever been on! Hope the car was up to the occaison!

[HemiSam]

Well, that's on me, @TMoney...  I grabbed a dodge durango for room for the suitcases and my familiarity with the user layouts.  Would have LOVED to have had my dated porsche with me (6M)...I just went through the suspension and it's really singing.  

The turbos flash at 3k rpm...old school.  Kinda entertaining...  AWD makes it tough to screw up too much.

Had some shopping to do before work, so I stopped at a favorite diner of mine.

Ribeye - reverse seer on pellet grill..

Set Chimp to 225 until internal temperature got to 115. Then took grill up to 500 and seared for 2 minutes each side. The temp is pretty spot on. And lovely smoke.

Steak day two..

Yesterday's was a little heavy on the smoke for me. So I set the Chimp again to 225 until internal probe temp of 115f, but at a lower smoke setting. Then used cast iron pan on induction stove top to sear for 2 min {30 sec per side}.  Steak flavors much more in balance with just a touch of smoke. Very close to what I wanted.

Science!

"One of the Best Burgers in Marin"

No Bacon (which would explain. It's ranking), but it was nearby, and after the trauma of having to get an unwilling cat to take an antibiotic pill, it hit the spot.

[Voltron]

I still don't know where you got your burger, but the fact that the delicious burger at Amelie is rated so low and shockingly several ranks below the heinous Way Station bbq joint's burger negates the Marin Burger Club's credibility in my book.

This place?

They also serve dessert.

Grahame and Joanne went all in and all out for a lovely evening at Chloe the Cat's house. And the banana actually did work well with the curries, especially when doused with lime pickle. Thanks again!

[Grahame]

After the Curries come Brit Nibbles.

Chloe remains above it all.
