Soooo glad to be back in my own kitchen after a week+ in the city eating what my hosts insisted we 'try' (mostly crap mom-and-pop Cantonese places-- one of which had cockroaches and served noodles that could have doubled as wallpaper paste).
Today we had pork tenderloin stuffed with prunes, dried apple and apricots, dauphinois spuds, maple-tinged applesauce and a huge salad with a slightly-too-thick garlic/avacado dressing. Raisin/rum pie and vanilla ice cream for afters.
The one thing I had in the city I'll definitely be trying at home was a tapas-bar thing I couldn't get enough of: pre-cooked rabbit, onions and reconstituted ancho chillies deep-fried in spring roll wrappers, and served with a sweetish, vinegary mole dipping sauce.
