Yup, I heard from family still in NY that some great restaurants opened up in NJ. Looks delicious.

Good looking dim sum.
Yesterday my friends and I roasted a pig for 50 in a La Caja China (first time using one). Today it becomes ramen broth.
8 hours
16 hours

C&V lunch in The Hague means 'broodje speklap'. My local greasy spoon gives you this, when you order it:
The slice of fresh bacon is rolled in bread crumbs and spices and is deep-fried. Served with a fairly spicy katjang (supposed to contain peanuts) sauce.
Not sure what it does to one's physical health, but mentally it works wonders.

Menu Breton: a galette (pancake) filled with salmon and cream, which wouldn't be complete without a glass of cider.

Last Sunday had lunch in a very small Japanese restaurant, not far from Amsterdam. Japanese chefs, very good and not expensive.
Ramen, gyoza and rice.

You're way ahead of me, but I think it's a good idea! Any suggestions for a date or time frame?

Thanks, it really is.
Served it on Sunday as part of the rotating "Men Cook" supper we have going with several friends.
9Lbs of onions turned into 8 servings of soup w/ lots of patience, several de-glazings of the Dutch oven and a couple of bottles of wine for the three cooks.
Cooks Illustrated magazine/website has the recipe as "Best French Onion Soup".

^ Thanks for the recipe suggestion. Must try that.
BTW, I had to look up "Dutch oven".
Turns out it means "braadpan", of which I got three. I use them for most of the cooking I do, probably most often for this.

It's the C&V essential of the kitchen courtesy of immigrants from the Netherlands or perhaps the "Pennsylvania Dutch".
The modern Campagnolo equivalents are the French Le Creuset (as pictured) and Staub, but well priced enameled cast iron knock-offs work perfectly well.
There is no substitute for low & slow in an ECIDO for the delicious traditional fare of many cultures, including mine.
