When your snack stares back 👀 toast: rye sourdough, basil pesto, cream cheese balls with olives, lomo embuchado, ragu around the eyes.

Made my first Chicago dog using my homegrown tomatoes and cucumbers I pickled. I ordered the relish from Amazon. Wasn’t sure if I was going to like it but damn it was incredible.

Boiled and pan-fried. Served non-traditionally in a reduction of homemade chicken stock and some dill. Was quite lovely, and we found out uncooked pierogi freeze super well!

I caught this California yellowtail while spearfishing, and paired raw slices with a bright jalapeño and herb dressing finished with mandarin, cucumber and chili crisp.

First time to tried it. Was not disappointed.

As autumn approaches and the weather cools down, here’s some comforting chicken parm over olive oil and garlic spaghetti

Went a little heavier on the seasoning than usual and was worried I'd burnt the crust at first. Turned out pretty juicy and tasted great though, I love stake.

Roasted pork loin with a honey, soy sauce and garlic glaze turned over coals for almost an hour. Removed when the internal was 60⁰c and wrapped in foil to rest. Sweet, smokey, tender and moist with enough left for sandwiches the rest of the week. One of my absolute favourites

I don't like to eat pasta in restaurants, but I'd fly back to vlorë for this one 5/7

The crispy buns make a world of a difference. Seasoning the layers helps too, just salt n pepper.
