    I made the tuna tartar. It was amazing. My boyfriend thought I was the kitchen rawk star. My photography skilz aren’t great – this is REALLY washed out – but here’s proof that it can be done!

    YOU ARE a rawk star!
    I’m glad you tried it and i’m happy you liked it!
    Thank you so much!

    Thank YOU. I’m a huge tartare/poke fan. I’ve tasted some really good versions – but yours was the best by far. We’re talkin’ MILES.

    Who was your valentines this year? I am not a big supporter of Valentine’s Day (because everything suddenly becomes infinitely more expensive) but hell if this is what you’re makin, I AM ALL ABOUT IT.

    I made my own 5 course meal, but I did not get Lucky. Should of made what you had. =)

    You would have had to post this last weekend for me to have had time to make it all for Valentine’s day! As it is, we ended up eating at 10pm (I tried to romanticize it by telling him it was very “Spanish” of us.) 😛

    These all look so delicious! We didn’t do anything special, an egg omellet filled with all kinds of farmer’s market goodies: mushrooms, raw milk cheese, caramelized red onions and sun dried tomatoes. We enjoyed hash browns fried in bacon grease as a side – simple but sooooooo good.

    Molten lava cake – yum, must make soon!

    Hello zenchef,

    Those are some fine looking blinis!

    That is a beautiful spice combo on the Ten Spiced Rack of Lamb.

    That is truly a menu to impress. I love the colors exploding on the tuna tartare dish.
