Later this morning, I'm planning on scrambled tofu with veggies . Orange
slices on the side, hot tea

(141,076 posts)The centerpiece of Chef Phets Vietnamese-inspired bowl is a juicy fish pattyshrimp and salmon seasoned with lemongrass and a punchy mix of umami-rich sauces. But what surrounds it is just as compelling: tangy pickled carrots and cucumbers, ribbons of shredded kale, a flurry of fresh cilantro and Thai basil, and golden-fried shallots. It all comes together over springy rice vermicelli, ready to soak up the sweet-and-sour brightness of a carrot-studded Nước Mắm sauce. (Doesn't sound much like breakfast, but I'll sleep late anyway. Will order breakfast items for following weeks.)
TEA, I think!!! Earl Grey, but would be good to have it with Lapsang souchang; just read that Twining's is substituting.
