Life In Da Burbs

I was back in Michigan this past weekend and got to hang out with a few friends from the college days. A couple of years have gone by since the last time we met. For the most part, all was well and everybody is moving on with their lives and working hard. This is the Original Beaner's where I definitely spent many mis-guided hours hanging out while I really should have been studying.

Bay Scallops cooked in sake, white Soy, grated ginger root and dash of butter. Asparagus sauteed in olive oil, shallots, black pepper and finished with soy salt. Pork ribs simmered 3 hours in Chinese 5 spice broth.

Ratatouille, Egg and Tapenade. Makes for a great summery first course. Bread Basket : Croissant, Chocolate Croissant, Baguette, Cornbread, Scone, Brioche
