Wilfrid Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Dominican salami (Induveca, the best) on zero carb bread with plenty of beurre de Barratte, cucumber and tomato. Simple is good is one point; the other is that there are barely any carbs on that plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Business lunch at L'Express. Must be the first time I've been there since pre-COVID. Still miffed that they took the tablier de sapeur off the menu, but the country terrine was good. They were doing great business for a Wednesday lunchtime.

StephanieL Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 A newish bakery in Livermore recently started Sourdough Pizza Fridays, so we had dinner there a couple of days ago. Today's lunch was the leftover mushroom & garlic oil pizza slices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
small h Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 Holiday brunch for the family and a few friends. 10 people in my living room! was a lot. But it went well, and I only have a ton of leftovers, instead of two tons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitchW Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 Take some leftover housemade pimento cheese, fry up some mortadella, and... Make a really delicious sandwich with those on Party Bus Bakery's scallion bun. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StephanieL Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) Repurposing the leftover roast chicken into sandwiches. Yesterday, it was chicken salad; today, it was sliced chicken on sprouted wheat bread with the leftover sweet mustard ham glaze as a sandwich spread.

Wilfrid Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Ham, cheese and tomato sandwich. More exciting than it sounds (for me, anyway) because this was on low-carb bread from the local supermarket, and Keto-friendly bread is now good enough that it's indistinguishable from real bread. I mean just regular, sliced bread, not high-end, fancy artisanal bread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diancecht Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 @StephanieL this might interest you i visited that cafè today (address in the breakfast thread) and bought a jar of poulet basquaise, some boiled potatoes, a jar of tarte tatin and some perrier. all told, this came out to slightly over $30, not including tip. the chicken was bone-in and pretty good, if a tad oversalted. the tarte tatin was apples and crumbs; perhaps a better choice for dessert might have been the chocolate mousse. i’m still not sold on the whole concept but at least there is one more lunch option that isn’t a variation of burritos, pokè or chipotle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitchW Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I did a riff on the classic tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich combo: Tomato, white beans and escarole soup along with a cheese quesadilla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchell101 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Okay, so this is really crazy. We had tomato bean soup for lunch yesterday too with some langostino tails thrown in. And we too had scallops for dinner last night but with wild mushroom risotto. WTF! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
