    Eggplant Fries

    I’ve been very sick with cold these past 2 weeks. After a particularly bad night trying to breathe well while sleeping and also with an ear infection, I went to One More Kitchen to sit under the sun during the afternoon.

    They have new menu items!

    But after taking a look, I picked Pork Avocado Salad. Again they don’t have it – I think I’ve never seen them have the ingredients on hand to make that salad for the past 3 months.

    So I asked the waiter about eggplant fries.

    • What does it have?
    • It’s eggplant.. and fries
    • So just an eggplant and (potato) fries? That’s it?
    • Oh no.. the eggplant is fried, and there’s a tomato sauce on top.

    That waiter really undersold it because this is what I got. The crunchy fried eggplant is merely the base, and they have an entire pizza beat party going on with their tomato sauce, corn, bean sprouts and mayo on top.

    I was in a lot of throat and ear pain today, but this fun dish (plus the sunlight) made up for all of it at once.

    Chair Cushion

    At the coffeeshop where I like to sit for sunlight has chairs that are too deep, so I brought a cushion from home

    Tacos el Venado has a pop-up stand by Wilshire and 6th St. They stick a pineapple at the top of the rotating gyro grill and chop off a piece on top of each taco

    What is this thing?

  • Sunlight

    Sunlight

    I met with a friend yesterday at 12pm in this coffeeshop, and the experience was a real revelation for me because that morning I was super cold in this cold apartment that doesn’t get morning time sunlight into the room, and I hasn’t been going outside much because all I remember from going outside is it being cold and windy. But this day I sat under the sun and it was the warmest I had been all week.

    Usually I’d avoid the sun as it gets too hot, but on days when it’s so cold all day, this was my highlight of the day, being so warm and cozy. It’s only sunny 11am-2pm though, so I think every day when it’s around 60F I’ll go to this coffeeshop and enjoy my few hours of sunlight for that day.
