Whew! Relaxing Sunday

It explains all, I got Sunday off and after a long night like last night, its nice to relax.

We had quite the crazy Saturday evening, our 2nd menu tasting for the wait staff and then regular service. But regular service was just as crazy as the menu tasting. Our wait staff is pretty good at sending tickets out all at the same time.....more like all 8 tables at the time all at once.....and all were 4+ tops so it wasn't the best of evenings. But afterwards some of us got together and went out bowling and had a chance to relax.

So after sleeping in this morning and actually getting up and ready, I took the time to relax and read a bit and take a little adventure in Colorado Springs and I finally went to that Asian Market off of Highway 24. It was called the Asian Pacific Market and that place was amazing! It was cool seeing some new things but also stuff that I knew what it was and the flavors items produced, etc. I wanted to get some frozen dumplings (Because it sounded so good!) But I didn't so next trip though I will. Here's some pictures:



ALL THE DIFFERENT SOY SAUCES!

Jackfruit.....it looked very interesting

Wintermelon, this also looked interesting.


I'm looking forward to going back again and actually getting some things and playing around with ingredients. But 1st I need to play around with the ox tail dish and this awesome BBQ sauce recipe that Lisa sent me (Because I'm goin to be the Sauce BOSS and we are going to make some awesome brisket!). Other than that going to the Asian Market reminded me so much of Chinatown in NYC and to be honest I'm looking forward to going back to NYC for some fun adventures and some awesome food! But I'm off for the evening!
