  1. I have already eaten lunch today. I don't have much left in the fridge so
    I decided to throw together a salad. I made a very light shallot
    viniagrette this morning and let the flavors fuse. I had small amounts of
    radicchio, leaf lettuce and a couple of leaves of romaine. I tore the
    lettuce(s) into small bite sized pieces and threw them into a wooden salad
    bowl (sides of bowl very lightly seasoned with a clove of garlic rubbed all
    around the inside). I spied a chunk of roquefort cheese and chunked it up
    into small pieces and added to the bowl. I toasted a few walnuts, mashed
    them up and put them in the bowl. I poured the dressing on and mixed it up.
    I added a dash of salt and pepper. It was very tasty but a few thin slices
    of steak would have been very nice.

    On an unrelated hunt yesterday, I lunched at this place I had never seen
    before, called Heavenly Ham. I expected something terrific but was sorely
    disappointed. I ordered ham and swiss on dark rye and ordered the box lunch
    which I ate in the restaruant. The ham itself was nothing special and the
    box lunch consisted of a cookie and bag of pretzels. On top of it all, I
    got havarti instead of swiss. UGH... It was pricey too. Don't bother with
    this place if you come across it. I should have known better, a ham
    specialty shop in a primarily Jewish area. I did discover a Middle Eastern
    grocery around the corner from the ham joint. It carried a lot of dried
    peas and beans, canned goods and lots of fruit, dates etc. Prices were
    outrageous. A curry packet (like the Ramen I buy all the time) was $3.

    They have these places around here, Michael, and they are just awful. At
    least you know not to go back. Jason's Deli (also a chain) is much better.

    Interesting, I just had a nice big salad for breakfast...

    I am throwing together a chicken salad for later on...

    Middle Eastern places are usually really cheap. I can't believe that Middle
    Easterners would frequent such a place...who knows, maybe there are a bunch
    of Lebanese high - rollers around ;-)

    Aren't there a number of Bosnian joints down there? They should carry
    similar stuff, and it should be really cheap (being that the Bosnians are
    fairly poor refugees).

    There are a lot of Bosnian establishment in South City but I have not been
    that way in a long time. I'll check it out. The ME store was in an
    upscale area and I'm sure the rent is astronomical. I was the only person
    in the store at the time.
