New dinner thread, Sunday, March 9 to Saturday, March 16, 2025

[Ginny]

We tried a new place for Fish & Chips. Meh, I've had better. When we got home, I made a batch of enchilada sauce (3 for the freezer and 1 for tonight) and then a pan of cheese and onion enchiladas. We're having a big platter of nachos too. Everything is ready, just need to pop things into the ovens. But first, the doggies need to eat and do their yard time.

Cheese and onion enchiladas sound great to me!

They were great. Didn't sleep too well last night, betting there's a different story tonight!

 

[Johnny West]

I’ll make some kind of fish - salmon on the grill, probably.

I did steelhead on the grill with plum, cherry, and apple for smoke. The piece on the left was in freezer for almost 3 years, passed the smell test, and came out fine.

If I don't have leftovers, it may be strip steak, corn on the cob and salad.

Wow, really? I haven't seen any corn on the cob yet.

Lee, I bought a bag of the little frozen nibbler corn on the cob pieces. Each one is about equivalent to 1/3 a whole ear.

Green Giant® Nibblers® Corn-on-the-Cob 12 ct. Pack

Enjoy the succulent taste of corn-on-the-cob all year round!

The commissary had it the other day, from Mexico. The Mexican asparagus has been good.

Where did you go for the fish n chips?

 

[Sass Muffin]

I put a dab of butter and some Worcestershire on the steak.
Tasty dinner

Where did you go for the fish n chips?

We went to a place called The Megabite. More of a pub than a restaurant. With arcade games, etc. The specialize in Pizza and British style Fish & Chips. It gets good reviews and a friend's son agreed that it is good fish...but I guess there's "good" and then what I consider "good"?

 

[Ginny]

Tonight will be leftovers from lunch! We decided to take the "new" car out to exercise her (2023 Jeep with less than 2,000 miles). We drove up to Kalama and had lunch at the Lucky Dragon. I really should have known better, we have lunched there before. Since my surgery, I'm not able to eat a huge meal...even in the past, I could not come even close to finishing a meal at LD. Portions could feed a small family, I do believe. Next time, we'll need to share...

Is this in Vancouver?

 

[Ginny]

Is this in Vancouver?

Yes, on Fourth Plain, in a strip mall. Eastside.

Dinner was Kathy's choice tonight: KFC. I haven't had it in over 40 years. It was okay - not as good as I remember.

[Johnny West]

I ordered Pizza Hut stuffed crust wit a side of wings. It wasn’t the best but didn’t expect it to be.

Yes, it’s not nearly as good as it used to be. Someone changed the recipe

To me, I think it is more a matter of my tastes have changed. I'll tell you, I think my new rotisserie chicken is my new favorite "mock" fried chicken. Brine and then dredge...yum!
