What have I been eating?

I’ve been MIA the last few weeks due to a busy schedule and lots of visitors. But I have found time to take pictures of the food I’ve been eating! I haven’t cooked much, but here are some pictures of yummy things…

My sister Julia visited two weeks ago. Kettlecorn from the farmers’ market:

Lunch in Half Moon Bay. I got fruit salad and French toast; Julia got a veggieburger with fries.

Bobby visited this past week. We went to this amazing Japanese delicatessen called Delica rf-1 in the Ferry Building in San Francisco. I got three delicious salads. The first, the bottom one in this picture, is a hijiki seaweed salad. I actually tried to recreate it today, so I’ll post my approximated recipe later. It had hijiki, mixed greens, soybeans, edamame, wolfberries (not sure what these were – they’re red), daikon, konnyaku, and some kind of fake meat. The salad on the left is spinach with a sesame dressing and lots of sesame seeds. The salad on the right was a burdock and lotus root salad – it had burdock, lotus root, mixed greens, carrots, celery, konnyaku, and white onion. This place is my new favorite restaurant. Everything was delicious.

We went to Ciao Bella for dessert and got sorbet and gelato. The gelato was pear and the sorbet was cinnamon!
