My Birthday Week Begins

To bid adieu to "33"(my best year so far) I will spend the week eating as many of my favourite things as I can afford/find/handle.

1
Prime Rib with roasties and beets, served with Chianti
cost: $70 for the roast (naturally-raised superyum from Cumbraes) plus more for mise en place, veg and wine
location: the Brit's apartment, on a wobbly IKEA table
soundtrack: a Lee Evans comedy dvd
dress code: track pants
value: priceless


I mean come on. Ridiculously good. Perhaps the best roast beef I've ever eaten, made even more wonderful by our almost inappropriately casual dress and setting. Not sure how the rest of the week could possibly even come close.

Up next: toast with butter
