United by Bacon

Lunch with friends at Hell’s Kitchen, Minneapolis. We made different menu choices, but were united by a common ingredient: bacon.

Cycled to Bde Maka Ska, the largest lake in Minneapolis. Feasted on fish and chips at Tin Fish for the first time this season

Dined at the New New Bengal, Newcastle upon Tyne. We had to change dinner plans a few years ago the night the New Bengal went up in flames.

Taunted Dwight at work in Minneapolis with a photo of my elevenses in Newcastle: millionaire’s shortbread. Chocolate, caramel, shortbread.

We cleaned our plates at an old Maui institution: Mama’s Fish House. We enjoyed the freshest fish, cooked well: spendy, but worth it.

Satisfied my craving for comfort food at moto-i, a sake brewery: bibimbab washed down with local beer, Fulton’s Sweet Child of Vine.

All but two of the fourteen counter stools were occupied when we walked into the tiny Ideal Diner for a mid-morning breakfast.

Today it was back to everyday life. I actually enjoy food shopping.

Colder weather = 15% discount on my Joe’s Brrr Bar today.

Two buses and two trains and we found fish and chips. Everything was made from scratch, including a piece of salt water taffy.
