The most delicious thing I have ever EVER had at Mondragón: sweet potato/eggplant curry over noodles with sides of soy sauce, cilantro, scallions, basil, lime and chilies. OMG.
Delicious curry!

It came with Tom Yum soup, too.

The Toews' took us out to Rae and Jerry's last night! I had never been there, but three people told me that it was a Winnipeg institution when I told them I was going/went. It was delightful! I would get a job there if only to snag one of the waitresses red dresses. SRSLY. There is a red tinge to all of the photos because of the decor there.

Last night I made stuffed pasta vulvas shells! I made the tomato sauce (again!) and another bechamel (OMG), topped the whole mess with smoked mozzarella and baked it. Delicious!
