Once again, brunch from Clear Flour.
coffee cake (top) - good.
apricot croissant - good and flaky, though not as buttery as some we
had in Montreal. Had a substantial layer of apricot filling.
banana pecan scone - good. The flavors really came through. Not as
dry as most scones.
morning bun (with walnuts) - good.
|
We also had
- tea cake (with golden raisins) - good. smelled strongly of orange.
- a chocolate thing - looked dry but was not. a tasty cross between a
chocolate cake and a brownie. (I don't recall its real name.)
- brioche - cotton swirled dough, not that unlike challah.
Sorry, I was too distracted to remember to photograph everything. (After
I ran off to get utensils, I forgot about the camera for the rest of the
meal.)

We also grabbed some hong-kong-style wonton soup from the food court. The
wontons were terrific: entirely shrimp, fresh, and lively.
|
At the last minute, we grabbed Chinese bbq pork so I could
introduce my parents to this dish. It was tasty, moist bbq pork, with no
visible fat and just the right amount of sweetness.
|
| "Winter vegetable hash," a dish I cooked with potatoes, kale, mushrooms,
squash, peppers, and more, from a recipe in the Google Cookbook.
| We also had (frozen) chicken stuffed with broccoli and cheese, and shared
some of a bottle of white zinfandel.
