I'm up in Alaska for a weeks vacation visiting a brother in law, and after 2-3 hours of trolling in his aluminum skiff brought in 28 pounds of chrome bright Silver Salmon..............yum.

Firing up the smoker tomorrow, then canning them in Kerr jars ourselves.

double yum.


~6 pound silver fresh in the net.






Our 5 fish / 28 pounds at the fillet table.






And then next to our personal 16 foot aluminum skiff which cost about $4 in gas money, there was the $$$ professional charter boat with ~8 tourists on it, at $300 a head, that's ~$2500 for a 1/2 day fishing for them, there are 4-5 halibut hidden under this mound of salmon.


wow that's a LOT of filleting work to do!!!

So, I need some suggestions for this.



The flavours worked great together, but only if you got all three in the bite - sweet rice with vinegar-sugar-salt, lime-garlic-marinated-shrimp, sugared cherries. As served, that didn't always happen. And it was kind of fussy to eat. Plus making the crepe was an extra step and it added nothing to the flavour.

So, should I:
- make this into a sushi- style roll, rice around shrimp and cherry
- use bigger shrimp and stuff them with cherries (chopped) and rice
- other?

Say what you want...I love living near a city that has so many diverse food opportunities ...

MY S/O is from Chengdu, China... so we spend a lot of time in Flushing Elmhurst, or the 8th ave Brooklyn Chinatowns..

This was a from a Chinese/Malay place..

Fried skate with pungent chili sweet sour sauce, wide rice noodles (in this dish they were rolled up....like logs?)

Satay... and some house freebies....

$30 with a soda

[jyl]

Here's my version of fast food.

Cost about $4 (buying the ingredients at Whole Foods). Took 10 minutes to prepare and cook, one cast iron skillet to rinse out, then eat.

Steak seasoned with soy sauce, siriachi sauce, oil, salt and pepper. Red cabbage, a small tomato, a few cloves of garlic. Corn tortillas. Half a lime, flesh and juice.

The sad thing about this thread for me is that I would have a very hard time finding any kind of restaurant within a reasonable distance that serves food half as good as most of this stuff looks. And if I did find a good eatery, the line would be out the door.

There are plenty of mediocre places to eat and they continue to stay in business.

You just about have to cook at home to eat well.

[RWebb]

LA sux, eh?

popn here is 150k and we have NO problem finding great places to eat
