Peach pie ice cream – Nitro’s Creamery

Peach pie ice cream - Nitro's Creamery
On Fridays, there’s a small farmers market outside the Ronald Reagan Building. It was a warm day so I decided to grab one of these ice creams. Since I’m a lover of everything peach, I opted for the peach pie flavor. It was fun to watch her make the ice cream and it tasted great. It had peach bits, peach puree, and pie crumbles. Mmm!

Blanquette de veau – Monsieur Benjamin

Blanquette de veau - Monsieur Benjamin
Veal, Paris mushrooms, pearl onions, steamed potatoes. $28
Monsieur Benjamin, San Francisco CA

This dish lacked the warmth and comfort that comes with good French food. Don’t get me wrong, it tasted fine, it was beautifully plated, and the technique was there but it didn’t draw any emotion from my while I ate. Sad…

Spicy pork rice box - Korean BBQ Taco Box
Pork marinated in Korean hot pepper paste, served with rice, house ginger dressing salad, spicy chicken wing, fried cheese roll with spicy mayo, and yogurt drink. $8.99
Korean BBQ Taco Box, Washington DC

This was ok. It certainly came with plenty of food, but not much finesse to any of it. The pork was a bit dry and some pieces were difficult to chew. I liked the variety of their rice box though.
