La Gran Comilona - Lima
De alguna manera quedamos en comer en Lima. No una comida, 9 dias de descubrimiento gastronomico ingredientes nuevos a nuestro vocabulario y paladar. Todos hemos dicho que fue idea nuestra, yo, mi padre y mi tio, pero la verdad es que caimos en fortuna de todos tener el mismo tiempo disponible y nos tiramos. Llegamos a lima a los finales de Mistura el festival gastronomico mas grande de latinoamerica, y claro decidimos atender. La feria esta ubicada con vista a la playa.
Mistura pretende dar apoyo y reconocer los cocineros, los agricultores y los interpretes de los productos peruanos. Llegamos en coche, al abrir las puertas. Tras comprar boletos de entrada y para la degustacion dimos la vuelta. Las areas se dividen entre bebdidas, comida criolla, comida fusion, el mercado, anticucheros etc.
Probamos varios platos... Ceviche de conchas negras
otros ceviches variados...
Tras los ceviches probamos los platos calientes Nos comimos un chaufa (arroz frito) con conchas y mariscos Cordero al horno de leña
y chancho (cerdo o lechon) al horno Y "al Palo" La verdad es que Mistura fue un buen previo de lo que se puede comer en el Peru, de sus increibles ingredientes, de sus interezados cocineros. Empezamos muy bien.

Peru is incredible!
I am currently in Peru and everything I have eaten is the best example of that cuisine or taste. I plan on posting pictures and discussions when I get home. But please... if you get the opportunity come to Peru.

Rappahannock Restaurant
I visited Rappahannock Restaurant in Richmond, VA twice, both with my parents who fell in love with the place on the first visit and insisted on a return visit. This was several months ago now, so the menu may have changed.
We ordered the brandade A potato and cod emuslion of sorts, which my father really enjoyed. Also the Cured Salmon We ordered clams Which came with toasted bread. Delicious and briny, great seasoning. I always order oysters, but we also ordered pearls and oysters, the combo of oysters and salmon roe. This combo is perfect, and my father in particular loved it and ordered it on our next visit as well. The boy and I had the lemonade from the bar which was excellent. Very likely will go back for more oysters and the great seafoood dishes. Certainly beats having to go to DC for great oysters.

Fat Dragon
My wife and I were actually the first lunch guests at Fat Dragon (Jan 2013) on Boulevard the day they opened for lunch. The staff were obviously ready for us and the rest of the crowd that followed. The menu has changed considerably since then
The lunch menu at that time was limited as compared to the dinner menu or the current menu on the site. we went with some crispy spring rolls
The rolls were crispy served with a chilli mustard sauce, Tasted great.
My wife also had a wonton soup with her order.
A terrible picture but a good appetizer.
I had the Kumpao shrimp which was spicy accompanied by Kimchi wich was flavorful but not terribly spicy.
We had a very nice lunch and enjoyed the ambiance and service.
