The Mouse steamed the bowl, added an egg, steamed a little more.
The Mouse sprinkled paprika and added green onions to serve.
Mmm! 🙂

The time The Mouse ate at the last pie/coffee shop on the other side of the island, The Mouse sat at the counter. They serve a lot of toast, commercial-sized loaves. The Mouse watched the servers toss the loaf ends away.
Server explained customers didn’t want bread end toast. The Mouse asked if he could take some. Server accommodated with a few. 🙂
While The Mouse understands the restaurant policy, he wished he lived closer, he wouldn’t mind making a couple of trips a week to collect bread ends.
The bread is tasty with good texture too. Sigh.
Changing subject, a couple of The Cat’s clients like to drop off food stuff during tax season.
🙂

One of The Mouse’s former bosses (who becomes a client), husband’s birthday. Sorry, confusing. Birthday brunch. Eating House 1840 by Roy Yamaguchi.
Plantation style paella rice stew. Portuguese sausage, chorizo, shrimp, and clams. Tasty.
Sampler plate: chicken spring roll (ok), Mongolian ribs (tender, fall off the bone, slightly spicy, mmm), tempura spicy ahi sushi roll (ok). Winner was the ribs. The Mouse still trying to cut back, not eliminate extra starch.
For “starch”, The Mouse also ordered.
Lemon mint aioli, lup cheong sausage, pepitas. The Mouse shared with The Cat and “birthday boy”. Another winner dish.

The Mouse errand to the post office. Tried nearby okazu-ya (Japanese deli). Forgot to take a pic of the front. Kinda hole-in-the-wall-ish. Sorta late morning, slim pickings.
The hot dog was meh (probably sat in the warmer too long), the hamburger patty was ok, the char siu was above average. Try try.
No sushi or musubi needed. The Mouse had a ham sandwich with the okazu-ya picks.

The Mouse did a site visit yesterday. Visit ended mid-morning. Brunch. Hee hee.
Fried rice omelet with tomato and green onion, and toast. To The Mouse, kinda had omurice vibe, sorta. The Mouse did squirt ketchup after taking the picture. 🙂

For The Cat.

And the must have nom.

Kin Wah Chop Suey. One of a couple nearby places The Cat and The Mouse usually frequent.
The Cat and The Mouse usually order savory omelet but this past weekend ordered something different.
Good ingredients, well cooked, too much gristle, reasonably priced.
Easy to eat, comfort food.
The Mouse finished with crunchy noms.

The Mouse returned a mail order item, factory outlet store on the other side of the island. Try try “Taiwanese noodle bar”, Fooki.
Because, whenever possible, The Mouse eats won ton, or any other dumpling for that matter. Hee hee.
Almost cooked through, The Mouse took home most of the tendon, simmer a little longer. Not bad though.
Mushroom, tofu, onion, cilantro, green onion, scallion oil, stir-fried with noodles. Light and refreshing.
Overall, pretty good, slightly pricey, definitely not cheap eats. Worth another try if we are in the neighborhood. 🙂

A visit to a Korean grocery store, H Mart. The Mouse picked up a lotus root segment.
Cut off both ends, peel outer layer (potato peeler), rinse outside and inside thoroughly, and slice thin.
Boil in salted water, The Mouse forgot how long, maybe ten minutes or so. Rinse thoroughly, boil in plain water for another ten minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
Dressed with a little bit of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt.
The whole lotus root segment should be enough for The Cat’s bento this week. 🙂
The Mouse did the prep on the weekend, process would take too long weekdays.
Be well, eat good.

The Mouse used to be reluctant to buy strawberries, any berries for that matter, spoils easily. Trick taught to The Mouse by one kitchen prep cook.
The Mouse bought a basket of strawberries from Costco.
One part generic white vinegar, four parts water, soak twenty minutes. Drain, rinse thoroughly, store uncovered. So far, works.;)
The Mouse likes. Mmm. 🙂

Wednesday, The Mouse goes hunting for papaya (vendor, Kamiya Farms, delivers on Wednesday). Also picked up a “fancy” bento.
The Mouse cannibalized the orange chicken keiki bento and the miso butterfish bento.
Simplified. Rice and broccoli from the orange chicken. Miso butterfish, cabbage, and half bitten potato croquette from the butterfish bento. Steamed purple sweet potato cooked by The Mouse.
Other items went to The Cat’s dinner bowl, The Mouse finished the rest. 🙂

Tuesdays must be slower for Ruby Tuesday. This week’s special, roast pork plate, not Chinese roast pork, Hawaiian kalua pork, porchetta, or even lechon, roast pork with gravy.
Good plate for the reduced price. The Mouse’s one “complaint”, the pork was not cooked low and slow, ever so slightly on the tough side. Other than that, The Mouse enjoyed. Most of the rice and half of the potato goes to The Cat’s bento.
The Mouse also picked up a “keiki” plate to pack the Cat’s bento, she is eating dinner at her office for the remainder of tax season, saves a little bit of time.
Not Panda Express but still pretty good. Hee hee.

The Mouse used to frequent a Korean BBQ restaurant before the event that cannot be named. They used to offer a lunch buffet for a reasonable price (no cheap eats). The buffet table usually contained several kim chee vegetables, rice, seaweed soup, a fried or grilled dish (usually chicken), and a stir-fried or stew (kim chee stew). Once in a while, a treat. Then the event that cannot be named happened.
Recently, the restaurant semi-restored its lunch offering. Two protein or tempura choices, rice, vegetable, and soup all you can eat.
The Mouse ordered mahi jun and BBQ pork.
The Mouse felt the plate/serving was a little sparse. The Mouse thinks with the rising food cost, restaurant had to decide to keep cost reasonable or reduce portions. The Mouse can’t fault small business, but as a consumer, situation was a bit jarring.
The selection of kimchi was also cut down a bit.
Cucumber and cabbage kimchi, bean sprouts, green salad, and macaroni salad. Pre-unspeakable, there maybe two more vegetable offerings? Oh well.
The Mouse loaded up on vegetables, soup, and salad. Purposely took home the pork for The Cat’s bento. The fish would not survive as leftover.
The Mouse will return, to support small business, just not too often.
Posting late, internet connection was down, slightly windy weather.

BBQ prices over here in SPAM Land is pricey. The Mouse is not sure about the cost of running a BBQ business but ordering is pricey. The Mouse saw a new restaurant opening nearby. Menu prices were reasonable. The Mouse was interested in the roast pork sandwich, sadly item was discontinued. Sigh.
The Mouse went with a brisket sandwich with added fries. Still the brisket sandwich price was reasonable as compared with other places, not cheap, reasonable.
At a golf course nearby.
The Mouse is not sure the brisket was smoked, no smoke ring. Still very tender, moist, and tasty. The fries were good too. The Mouse would order again. Restaurant also has cold lobster, shrimp, and crawfish rolls on menu. The Mouse may want to try those too.

Non-noodles, kinda. Low-carb.
The Mouse followed directions, boiled for three minutes, drained. The noodles had an ocean-y smell.
The Mouse made a bowl.
Yam noodles tossed with salt, pepper, Szechuan pepper powder, olive oil, boiled cabbage with furikake, popcorn chicken, kamaboko fishcake, and leftover egg fu yong. The noodle texture was stiffer than regular noodles. Not sure if The Mouse would opt this on a regular basis. Once in a while maybe.
One of The Mouse’s favorite snacks, usually in packages of five, too many.
Japanese pancake sandwich with red bean filling. The Mouse got excited with the individual package. 🙂
The Mouse made a rustic cabbage slaw.
Chopped cabbage, Kewpie mayonnaise, salt, pepper, paprika, dried chives. Mmm!
Next time, The Mouse might add a few capers and the brine liquid. 🙂

The Mouse, working from home, nothing fancy eats.
Pastele, rice (about two and a half bites), sweet potato.
With ginger, one dried date. The turnip absorbed the spiciness of the ginger. Salt added before serving. The water from cooking the turnip made for soup base for The Cat’s noodles, turnip-y and ginger-y. Hee hee.
The rest of the rice, pastele bite, leftover yuba rolls, fried pork crumb, sweet potato, turnip. 🙂

A revisit to Kapiolani Seafood. The Mouse wanted to try their egg tart.
Very soft and creamy. The Mouse guesses lots of cream in the custard, he took to lactase pills, just in case. No untoward incident experienced. Whew!
Last week’s “flavor” was pork with preserved egg. This week, The Mouse thought the jook tasted like turkey or chicken with preserved egg. No matter, still good. 🙂
There was a hot pot dish, look funn with tendon on the menu, The Mouse was going to order. The Cat thought too much soup, the smaller bowl of chicken dumplings was ordered instead. The tendon was saved till next time.
The dumplings were very large, not bad, could be seasoned more. The Mouse’s opinion. The wrap was slightly thick. Try try.

Yea or nay? The Mouse doesn’t mind them, not as a regular staple, but occasionally.
Small-kid time, cheaper than fresh or frozen, The Mouse didn’t like them then.
Now, taste has changed, The Mouse doesn’t mind.
Leftover mapo tofu. If The Mouse is doing stir-fry, frozen peas definitely, but leftover rice bowls, canned peas are okay. 🙂

Local item on Ruby Tuesday menu, story goes franchise owner put item on the menu in honor of his friend, Norman.
Roast pork (The Mouse tasted a little smoke too 🙂 , fishcake (kamaboko), and two dumplings (probably frozen). Other choice was won ton from Kin Wah Chop Suey but, Noman’s Saimin was on a flash sale. 🙂
Oh, also tried the honey buns bought from H Mart over the weekend.
Toaster oven 300 degrees, ten minutes.
A slightly sweet filling. Actually very good. Not too sweet, very smooth texture (no fiber). The Mouse would buy again. 🙂

Kapiolani Seafood Restaurant. First tried last week for yum cha/dim sum. The Cat wanted to try dinner menu (dim sum not served during dinner hours).
Dish reminded The Mouse of Okinawan goya (bitter melon, eggs, tofu stew). Not bad, eggs were a bit overcooked but still tasty.
Slightly sweeter than what The Mouse is used to, first time try for The Cat (usually oxtail soup). Well made, kinda pricey, still worth it. Not an everyday order.

It was time to replace The Cat’s bento box. Guesstimate is the bento box is about ten years old, if not older. Saved a lot of plastic containers. 🙂
The top of the old bento box (plastic) is showing its age. The last time The Mouse visited H Mart, he noticed glass bento boxes that could replace, but The Cat has to choose.
New bento box.
Similar in size to old bento box, glass container, plastic cover. The Cat said the new one is easier to close and secure. Paw up.
While at H Mart, try try frozen honey buns.
Might toast one later. 🙂
