Dinner—Thursday, July 17
Last night, we gave in and got take-outs from Khow Thai. It’s so uncanny how the owner of that place recognizes my voice every single time. Tonight, to satisfy S’s pseudo-cravings for Vietnamese food, I tried something new.
- Summer Rolls with Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce (originally planned for but nixed in the interest of time)
- Vietnamese Coconut Lemon Grass Chicken
- Made two versions—one with chicken and the other with tofu
- Could not find lemon grass at any local stores but it still turned out pretty good
- Reduced the fish sauce/soy sauce amount from the recipe but it still turned out saltier than I would have preferred
All in all, the meal turned out to be pretty impressive.
