What did you eat or cook today (December 2024)?

Well umm my Asian food mania has bitten me on the arse
On Wednesday when googling the living daylights out of chinese/asian ingredients etc I found that in the town next to here there’s a Thai food place that does gluten free food and delivers here! Yeehaw!!
Forgot I got excited and immediately placed an order for today at lunch time.

It was a nice surprise but now I’m in the thrall of a large food coma
The rest of my days cooking plans are out of the window.
I’ll be lucky if I can get out of my seat to turn the slow cooker off

Today, I enjoyed a tasty Sauerbraten plate, a famous German dish I won’t forget.

That’s one (of many) German dishes I’ve yet to make. It’s on my short list, but I never quite seem to get around to it. Yours sounds lovely!

I really like the pics, I thought you’d used a filter to make them look more rustic

Thanks. It’s amazing what beef tallow candles and grease-paper windows will do!

WOW! Looks fantastic! Is this place in Pennsylvania? Can you give the name and address of this tavern, please?

Yes, it’s in Gettysburg, called The Dobbin House:

Dobbin House Tavern

Upstairs is a little more fancy-pants and you need reservations (we ate there last year), and the basement tavern space is called the Springhouse Tavern - they don’t take reservations.

I kinda want to try the bedroom. Eating in bed at a restaurant sounds fun!

Don’t let MrsT know about that or that’ll be in the cards for next year.

Imagine the server’s surprise when she finds out I’m usually in the buff in bed:

“Here are your warm rolls, sir…though I see you’ve already got…<peers more closely>…I wasn’t aware we serve cocktail weenies!”

MrsT said with some warm milk she's got bratwurst!

I have to say…jokes like this are why my sister left the siblings group chat!

I'm guessing they were much racier in your chat than we can be in this forum!

We've got a pretty good recipe per Craig that's like his grandmother's. I think he posted his red cabbage recipe a long time ago.

No, she’s just a prude - although when she texted, “I’M LEAVING THIS GROUP!!! THE LAST THING I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IS MY BROTHERS D…S!!!” I sort of understood her point.

Phat prik khing with jasmine rice and cucumber.
Got enough for toomorrow as well

Mexican ceviche, shrimp and tuna, with cucumbers and avocado for me. Plus a glass of white Sangria. I forgot to take a picture before starting both.

Craig had Carne asada nachos. He only made it about half way through. Rest came home.
