Lars ho

Lars how's a guy from Denmark making all these Mexican tacos. Something about simple goodness of a soft or crisp taco with just about anything you want to put in it. Love Mexican food.
A couple of local guys opened an “authentic” taqueria where I live and I was so disappointed that I went home and ordered a tortilla press and some masa harina after my first and only visit. Then @HumbleHomeCook said to check out Rick Bayless and through his books I fell in love with the food of Mexico.

Although unrelated, this was super yummy.

Label Rouge chicken breast, dry brined overnight. With a simple pan sauce(cook chicken, add shallot, reduce white wine, reduce chicken stock, mount with butter, season) and summer veggies with a creamy dressing.

Chanterelle ravioli with peas and beans and herb foam, with an onsen egg and pork fillet wrapped in bacon filled with a chanterelle cream. Both fillings were made with a different chanterelle cream. It was extraordinarily good! This Xerxes magnacut is amazing!!!

The wife said she wanted to try Dragon Fruit. The only thing I knew about it was that it has little to no actual flavor. But, she likes peaches and I had a couple so I got to ponderin'...

She was pleased!
 
One thing I really appreciate about this thread is how it got me out of my cooking rut. I got a lot of inspiration here, and the impetus to try different things.

And we reap the benefits as you clearly inspire a lot of us too!

It really is a cool thread with such a range of things that there's something for everyone to like.

That is some perfectly done linguine. Comfort food at its finest for me. It’s really a home friendly easy to put together dish. Lots of variations you can make as well. Lol, years ago 80’s -90’s? There was a place on Broadway in SF…. Little Joes I think? I used to go there all the time for this and would also make it at home like once a week. Hmmmm shoulda put this in the comfort food thread.
 
I didn't feel like cooking today. Then quickly made a lemon chicken with basil under the skin. Filled with lemon, garlic, rosemary and thyme, plus potatoes, onions, chorizo, bacon, lemon, rosemary, fennel seeds and thyme.
