            Ciabatta bread with basil olive oil.

            Some (moderately) cheap Japanese whiskey.

              Srsly? Yeah it’s pretty good for delivery. I’m not picky at all when it comes to food so probably not the best person to ask. They have a very easy to use app and, more importantly, we are within their delivery zone.

                Papa John’s is not bad. My BIL was frat brother with him. I personally think in that arena Donato’s is a bit better, and Jets better still.

                  Sauteed salad with poppyseed dressing.
                  Taiwanese sausages.
                  Maybe an orange later.
                  Maybe also some eggnog later. :man-shrugging:

                        Their Detroit style is great. It's not very dietetic, but damn tasty.

                                My turn for "baked chicken."
                                This one came out of the oven looking so good that I snapped a picture.
                                Recipe: quarter chicken marinated overnight in a mix of two sources (Korean spicy sauce meant for pork and bulgogi meant for beef), sprayed olive oil, Mediterranean style "Badia Complete Seasoning"; 38 minutes in the oven at 400F. Minus the marination, same treatment for the onion.

                                The green liquid in the white bowl is my after-meal tea, matcha that I brought back from Japan from some shop near the Ginkaku temple. It's name, 萬年翡翠, translates to "ten thousand year jadeite."

                                  The top dish looks delicious. The bottom one looks like the algae in my bird bath after a couple sunny days.

                                    That chicken looks really really good - so does the onion.

                                    Maybe I'll bake myself an onion for lunch today...

                                      Re: the onion, the trick was to cut maybe 1/3 off the top of the onion (tunic side up), then bake it.

                                      It wasn't deliberate. Another household member used a third of that onion for another dish a couple of days earlier and I just baked the leftover. I was pleasantly surprised to see it came out of the oven so good looking.
