Four Foods on Friday #26
Val over at Fun, Crafts and Recipes has once again invited us to share our opinions and good taste on the subject of food. It’s a bit late, but you can join in by copying the questions below, answering them in a post on your blog, then posting a link to your post as a comment to Four Foods on Friday #26. Here’s my answers:
#1. When going out to dinner what items do your order? Appetizers, soup, salad, dinner, dessert.
Usually just a dinner, and I usually have lots of leftovers to take home. I love good food, but can only eat small amounts at a time. If the place has a fabulous dessert menu, I’ll somtimes order an appetizer, then dessert.
#2. How predictable are you when eating out? Do you usually order a meal that you’ve had before or do you like to try new things?
I’m somewhat adventuresome. I have a lot of dietary restrictions, so at some places there are only a few things I can order, but if they have plenty of stuff I can eat I’ll try different things.
#3. When eating at a restaurant, what beverage do you like to order with your meal?
Iced tea. Always. It’s a Southern thing. 
#4. Name a meal that you ate at a restaurant that you liked so much you tried to recreate it, as well as the name of the restaurant and the recipe.
Kalbi Ribs (that’s the meat on top in the photo above.) They’re available at all of the local drive-ins and Korean restaurants, but I like them best from Barbeque Kai right here on the Coast. They’re easy to make. Mix sesame oil with shoyu (soy sauce - I prefer low-salt.) Add fresh grated ginger, garlic and some sesame seeds. Marinate the ribs in it for a couple of hours, then grill. Yummy!
Hmmmmmm! Val wants suggestions on how to improve, add to or enhance Fun, Crafts and Recipes. It’s perty perfect as is. Maybe more recipes with pictures? I dunno - it really doesn’t need anything at all!

[…] Skeet shared instructions on how to make a version of Barbeque Kai Kalbi Ribs. Sheet says she’s adventurous as long as the foods on the menu meet her dietary restrictions. […]

Well, then, Val - make them!

Agree with Val, those ribs look mouth-watering. Is shoyu a sweet soy sauce that gives it that wonderful color?

Skeet - if you don’t mind me asking, why the strict diet? Seems like you’re kind of bummed to miss out on stuff sometimes.

That really makes me hungry. lol I hope your dietary restrictions are not too limiting. But if they are, promote more of it on your site, so that those with these limitations will have easy access to info.

Maybe I haven’t been paying attention, but I didn’t know that you are from the South!

Mmm kalbi ribs! I like the low sodium soy sauce too. I had regular by mistake once and it was like liquid salt. Bleck!
