Cheer Up With Food

I'll raise my children in France:   France's Gourmet School Lunches

I really enjoy eating at  Komol , their Thai food never disappoints me.  I've been coming here since I was kid... Maybe thats why I'm so attached to this place! The staff is always friendly, offer great service, and my friends and I have had nice conversations with them!   The appetizer Bronsen and I always get is the Vegetarian Satay  - flame broiled tofu strips on skewers with curry peanut sauce, toasted bread, and cucumber salad: The tofu satay always comes out perfectly light and broiled evenly :)  I highly recommend getting any item served with the curry peanut because its heavenly ! I also recommend trying the  Pineapple Fried Rice - with pineapples, cashews, green onion, tomatoes, shrimp, and chicken; and try any of the vegetarian dinner specials.  My favorite one is V egetarian Dinner Special #3 - comes with a spring roll, mushroom tom kha soup (as shown in the pic below), and pad Thai  (stir fried noodles with eggs, fish sauce, bean ...

This time Bronsen added more variety to his sushi rolls!  I was impressed with the rolls he made.  They consisted combos of tuna sashimi, canned tuna, kim chi, cucumber, his special sauce, fried garlic, soy chicken, and my leftover vegetarian wonton filling!  Time for execution: Beautiful & ready to be devoured:

It's a rare occasion when Bronsen volunteers to make dinner for me so I had to photograph this moment!     -Salmon sashimi from Pacific Seafood Inc. in Henderson -Sushi nori from Lian Hwa Inc. Thanks Chef Bronsen <3

Me and Bronsen finally went to the semi annual San Gennaro Feast !  This festival is held in honor of San Gennaro , the patron saint of Naples .  There was an overwhelming amount of vendors there.  Many of them kept calling out to people persuading them to try their foods, it felt old fashioned to me haha.  The foods looked so tasty, making it hard for us to decide what to eat.  If only the foods weren't overpriced, I'd sample many of the foods. The interesting foods I saw were toasted ravioli, eggplant parmesan sub sandwich, garlic fries, zeppole (fried dough), turkey legs, stuffed artichokes, and shrimp pesto pizza (on the left hand side of this pic): super long Italian sausages! :                                     shrimp shrimp shrimp:                               ...

If you're a burger lover, I definitely recommend  Bachi Burger .  They're not like other specialty burger places in Las Vegas because their burgers have an Asian/Hawaiian twist to it!   Nice condiment set! Since it was my first time there, I asked my friends what I should get. They all said to try the  Ronin Burger because it's very juicy.  That description grossed me out because juicy to me = fatty goodness, but they didn't mean it as in fat they meant as in flavor.  So I ordered it and ate the fastest out of everyone...It was wonderful!  It comes   in a sweet bread bun, topped with caramelized onions, Japanese cole slaw, miso goma dressing, fried egg, katsu BBQ, and yuzu citrus aioli on the side.   I noticed on the bottom of the menu a note that said all the burgers come from cows that were only grass fed (its what's they're only supposed to eat, not corn!).  That made my day, I haven't had that kind of beef in a loon...

Jennifer & David's wedding 8.8.2010 Homemade chocolate cupcakes  I didn't get the chance to try the cupcakes (my mom was feeling sick so I dropped her off at the hotel).  Just by looking at them, they look perfectly delicious! Wedding cake by  Beverly's Best The food catering was provided by one of the restaurants from  The Villa del Sol .  For dinner, we all had to get our foods from a buffet line.  I prefer that than being served a pre-made plate!  I should have asked which restaurant catered the food because each item was soo good. My plate - I loved every bite of this light meal, they were seasoned just right. The couple dining first time as husband and wife A wonderful day!
