This Week In Food

Oysters from Ocean Ave Seafood in Santa Monica…

This place is awesome. Totally old school with a great Happy Hour M-F from 4-6pm. We were there on a Friday, sat at the bar (definitely the place you want to sit), and enjoyed oysters and wine while watching the Lakers/Knicks game (Go Lin!).

It actually rained in LA this week, so I decided to veg out at my Dad’s house one morning and do some baking in his much-larger-and-prettier-than-mine kitchen…

The result were these almond flour cinnamon bun muffins…

So. Addictive.

(Recipe soon to come)

Another thing I’ve been totally digging lately is sparkling cucumber water. It’s great on it’s own, but also delicious with some lemon or lime squeezed in (… and if it’s past 5 o’ clock- with some vodka).

Lastly, my friend came over the other night and made me an impromptu dinner that was quite impressive…

The menu: butter garlic sole with farmer’s market roasted potatoes and an gorgeous salad.

Pretty, pretty.

I want to be baking cupcakes in this kitchen…

… and making margaritas with that huge bowl of limes.

Heart Day Dinner

Beetroot Risotto.

Best Valentine’s Day dinner. Creamy, decadent, and PINK!

Served with a beautiful butter lettuce salad…

And some Cazar Pinot Noir…

I think I liked it…

Santa Monica Farmer’s Market

Saturday morning I went on a little Santa Monica Farmer’s Market adventure. I wanted to take more pictures, but it was rather crowded and I was on a bit of a time crunch, so I only managed to snap a few…

Some perfect Meyer lemons

Beautiful little potatoes

Watermelon radishes!

Pork Belly Bun from the Flying Pig food truck

(I actually didn’t eat this, but my friend said it was amazing)

A Cherimoya

I’ve never had one of these, but apparently they taste like banana/pineapple custard- exciting.
