I'm having postdrome from yesterday's migraine, so we ordered out again. We shared a pork gyro platter (salad, rice pilaf, Greek roast potatoes) and two chicken pita for DH. Then we had some loukoumades for dessert. Those were interesting. They are sort of a yeast donut, but as a small ball. They have a honey syrup and I liked them. DH thought they were a little better than okay.

Ham steak for myself and my daughter, fried spam for the wife. All glazed with brown sugar and butter. And mashed sweet potatoes, which were fabulous.

Barber frozen chicken, a baked potato, and some leftover Baby Bella mushrooms in butter.

Thai Fish Curry with Noodles
Cook’s notes:
After doing some deep research on this classic street food dish, I discovered that the very considerable trend is to use Thai fishballs in place of flaky white fish. I therefore bought some Thai fishballs from the exciting new Asian grocery that I found in my new neighbourhood.
The result was desperately disappointing - there was no fish taste at all and the dumplings were basically just a ball of chewy dough.
Definitely back to some delicious red snapper for this one.
The coconut soup was amazing, probably my best (I haven’t made this for a long while). We just both agreed that the dumplings brought nothing to the plate at all. Sad really. But I so love this dish that as I was making it, I wondered to myself why I let this one slip from my attention, with a little careful tweaking to the recipe, this will be a beautiful powerhouse dish in my repertoire
