Just ate at the 35th Street Bistro again, hadn't been there in a while. Their trout was truly excellent, the highlight of the meal. Clam appetizer also very good. Profiteroles for dessert, along with a strawberry in balsamic vinegar whipped cream sort of a thing. For my entree I had orecchiette, pancetta, peas and spinach pasta which I enjoyed but was unfortunately overshadowed by the glory of the trout. Did I mention the trout was good? Just a light crusting of pepper and sea salt and perhaps some kind of herbal goodness.
The strawberry and balsamic vinegar dish seems to be the latest fashion, our having seen it at a couple of different places now.
I've eaten at La Carta de Oaxaca twice in the past couple of weeks. New menu item is the Tostada (not the shrimp one -- this one has shredded beef). Favorite dishes are now (1) pozole, (2) pork tamale, (3) entomatada w/ tomatilla sauce, (4) tostada [not the shrimp one].
90+ degree weather in Seattle makes things rough. Our very furry cats are unhappy and wedging themselves into contorted positions on the tile in the bathroom. Cold Pellegrino in the refrigerator makes things slightly more bearable. Has anyone gotten their cats to drink ice water? Ours turn their noses up at it.
