More Curry

Had curry for dinner yesterday too. This is a red curry with tofu, carrots, zucchini, and onion.  I put too much curry paste in, so it was very spicy.



Stoplight Curry

Lunch was great yesterday. Red, yellow, and green curries. Sauteed tofu. Mixed veggies. A delicious chickpea stew with yams! Also, a cookie. Some Fresca to drink.

Birthday Lunch

Yesterday was my birthday.  I ate way too much at both lunch and dinner.  Oh well.  One day a year is not a huge deal.


At the top left is a butternut squash soup.  I thought it was alright, but apparently later batches were too salty.  The main plate has a bunch of curry, but it was just OK, I don't even think I ate it all.


They had some tomato and mushroom pizza, so I had two small pieces of that.


I also had some of the Brussels sprouts.


And a piece of chocolate cake, since it was my birthday.

Two Thai Food Lunches In A Row!

Woo! Some coworkers and I went over to the other building where they were having Thai food for lunch today (the same as we had yesterday - today we had the sandwiches they had yesterday).  Thai food lunch two days in a row!  This time I just took a tiny bit of the Pad Kee Mow (mostly for the green beans) and the rest was curry.


And no big surprise, I went back for more curry.

Thai Food Redux

Thai food for lunch again! This time there was a slightly different selection of dishes.
First was a Pad Kee Mow that had more things in it than most Pad Kee Mows I have seen. Baby corn! It was OK.
Next was the vegetable dish from last time, Phad Pahk.
Finally, a tofu panang curry. Yum!
I got some of each.
Since the Pad Kee Mow underwhelmed, I just went back for some more curry.

Thai Food!

Lunch at work today was catered Thai food! Yum! A nice spread, with all but two dishes being vegetarian.
First up, good ol' Pad Thai with tofu. It was surprisingly tasty given the quantities in which it was served. I've found that noodle dishes in general are very difficult to produce in quantity without seriously hurting quality.
Next was a new dish I hadn't heard of, but was willing to give a try: Phad Pahk. This contained fried broccoli, cabbage, green beans, mushrooms, carrots, white onion, celery, and bell pepper. Hard to argue with that, so I took some.
And who could forget the curry? Red curry with tofu. Yum! Served with Jasmine rice, naturally.

I hooked myself up with a moderate portion of each of the three things, added a little crushed peanut and some bean sprouts.
The weather outside was gorgeous, so that's where we ate. There's my trusty Platt mug. Couldn't get a good shot of the lake and the food at the same time. Stupid railing!

It being Thai food, my second favorite food, I had to go back for some seconds on the Pad Thai and the curry. A moderate second portion of each.
Afterward, I almost had a Starburst, but I decided that since I had seconds at lunch, I have to avoid snacks for the rest of the day, and probably eat a small portion at dinner.
