Missing this place at the moment. I’m thinking we should take another trip to Baltimore soon.

Skirt Steak Special
Marinated and grilled with fresh corn, bacon, asparagus and onions over mashed potatoes. I enjoyed this dinner, but would have preferred not to eat corn on the cob in a restaurant. It came off as a little lazy. Don’t get me wrong, it tasted good but I was not at a backyard BBQ.

Risotto Special with Scallops and Sausage
Seared jumbo scallops and hot Italian sausage over creamy risotto sauteed with baby peas, shitake mushrooms, fresh grape tomatoes and parmesan cheese.

I did not even know that thing in the middle was a sausage. It took a while for me to realize what it was, but from what I’m told it tasted good.

Lychees!
While a pain in the ass to peel, they are really refreshing in this summer heat. Don’t let the prickly skin scare you away.

Homesick for Kathmandu
Thank god for Indian grocery stores. I stocked up on some snacks, mango juice, and lychees. The ridiculously hot weather in Richmond these days added to my make-believe Kathmandu afternoon.

This photo of pizza from my favorite pizza spot in the world, Fire and Ice Pizzeria in Kathmandu, Nepal makes me so homesick for Nepal. Hungry and homesick! What I wouldn’t do for a little buff pizza in my life right about now!

Hot & Numbing Dry Beef
SO good! And HOT! This reminded me of buff chili from Nepal, but with Szechuan spices instead of Newar spices.
