SOFT SHELL CRAB

It's in season! It's also more expensive now.  But it's so easy to make and so delicious!

You can use any seasoned flour, cornmeal, or even packaged breadcrumbs. 

I used olive oil to fry it in this time which I normally don't but I felt like having the Mediterranean flavor tonight.

For my vegetable, I made dandelion greens (also in season) sautéed in thick bacon pieces (preferably without preservatives), minced shallots and garlic,  some white wine, organic raisins and some maple syrup to balance the bitterness seasoned with sea salt flames at the end.

 I had to have a cup of mini organic arugula with balsamic glaze and oil.

Before dinner, I warmed up some baguette crisp and had some cheese and Iberico chorizo without sodium nitrates.

BEECHERS #Beechers

Love their cheese so I ordered their grilled cheese sandwich and their beet salad:

The grilled cheese comes with a small salad. But I wanted more vegetables so I ordered their beet salad. (The waiter have me a tip that I should choose the beet salad because it more roots than salad. And he was right 

It was a treat. Orange segments with red and orange quarters of cooked beets with caramelized pecans and chopped apples and rounded into mini balls of herbed goat cheese.

This place is known for their Mac & Cheese.
