Napa Cabbage Salad with Hoisin Vinaigrette

This bright salad features Napa cabbage along with other veggies and herbs and is tossed in a hoisin vinaigrette. When it comes to salads, I love it when the greens are chopped up just perfectly, not too big, for me to eat in a dignified manner. It’s the worst with large pieces of lettuce or cabbage just hanging off the fork, surely getting on my face with dressing trailing behind. When it comes to salads, I love my crunchy toppers. Usually nuts. Any kind will do – peanuts, almonds, pecans, pine. Roasted and salted for flavour. When it comes to salads, I like herbs that add flavour. Cilantro ..read more

The hot chocolate at Carette was rich, creamy and worth every penny. On a recent trip to Europe, we had two days in Paris. We had lots planned in those two days.

We were expecting a line but we lucked out and there weren’t too many people in front of us. Parties of two were getting seated quick ..read more

Z has become fascinated with anything from the water so he happily agreed to help me out. He washed the mussels and pulled off the beards. The ones that wouldn’t close got tossed and then the rest were ready to cook. There are a couple variations that are my ..read more
