Very nice Rob. Don't get mad at me for pointing it out but, ummmm... I think you meant:
Tomago dofu (omelette)
Chawanmushi (custard)
Regardless, great job. Looks and sounds tasty and I like how you still managed to incorporate Rob into a cuisine you say you weren't entirely comfy with.
I peeked in last night, having already put my glasses with my book beside the bed, and got just a hazy glimpse of all your lovely goodies.
Today is just TOO MUCH. I'm gonna have to go back to au naturel vision, if I'm not to be salivating into the keyboard.
And they're works of art, as well.
PS What's in the clear bowl on the first plate?
And if there's a demo soon in your future, let it be the chocolate kumquat spring rolls. That has SO many virtues.
And you MUST try peach potstickers with brandy-butter sauce.
Oh hey! You ended up using Ong's book!! ;) You do a fantastic job adapting to the need, too. Everything looks great. I'll chalk the name mix-up to stress, hehe ;)
Yeah Mark, I've noticed that too. Rob is really good at adapting to cuisines and putting his personal stamp on them. I chalked the name-thing up to a late night post from a tired chef. I only mentioned it because I'm a smartass and I was pretty sure Rob wouldn't be offended, not because it was a big deal. :p
Fixed. And its a good thing for me that I have Rachel to pick me up after Mark and Larry beat my like a dying dog :P Joking of course - thanks guys. Rachel, that's the shochu rice wine.
Yep, sounds like Rachel is your gaurdian angel around here. If it makes you feel any better, I don't offer abuse to just anybody. :p
