pasta!

I've been recently hooked to the Korean dramedy, Pasta. It's made me crave spaghetti more than ever because in one of the episodes, the young chef tries time and again to perfect a simple spaghetti with olive oil and garlic. I loved the way the chefs tasted the noodles and how it left their lips glossy. So of course, I had to make some of my own and boy, was it yummy. I also made a small batch of spaghetti with cream sauce from Phoenix and B seared wild salmon that my roomie, Seb got from the Farmers' market. Atop that a bed of kale and call it buono!

basil, mozarella and tomato

my new name for the caprese (said with a heavy italian accent) and current favorite sandwich is the BMT. basil, fresh mozzarella and heirloom tomato on a rustic baguette finished with a light drizzle of olive oil (believe me, this finish will do you good especially if it's quality olive oil).

 

i scarfed down two halves of the BMT in relatively the same amount of time it took me to prepare them. very unhealthy, i know, but oh so fresh and delicious. all i need now is to be sipping a spritz..

italy, magic.

italy, i don't even know where to begin. it was only a few weeks ago and yet everything is a magical blur so beautiful, so fresh and soo..if only i could turn back time and relive it all. from rome to florence and siena, tuscany to treviso and venice and alas, milan.
