Food Photo: pork fried rice

Wish I could give you the recipe for this but I'm not even sure how I made it. What I can tell you is how amazingly delicious it was. Oh and that it really doesn't need a recipe; kev and I used mostly the same ingredients and ended up with two very different fried rices.

What I used:
Brown rice
Carrots
Celery
Mushrooms
Peppers
Onion
Garlic
Ginger
Soy sauce
Rice vinegar
Sesame oil
Fish sauce
Canola oil
Pork
Egg

Wow didn't realize how many things actually went into this meal. Well it was worth it

THE SOCIAL TABLE

THE MENU
                                      
A few weeks ago our lovely friends at Bloomberg TV (Arty and Meredith), took us (us being my team from work) to "The Social Table."  What is the Social Table you ask? Well, straight from the website, the Social Table is...."the place where good food and fun people get together to share a meal, a glass of wine and the experience of cooking."  Its learning basic cooking fundamentals, like properly cutting an onion without slicing your fingers off, while creating a meal with fun people. The ultimate dinner party; a little wine, great  food, lots of fun combined with some culinary skills. Chef Rebecca is awesome, she's fun, down to earth  a wonderful teacher who creates an environment that is relaxed and entertaining. She taught us simple yet necessary skills for the kitchen, making sure to include everyone in all the processes. We not only cooked dinner but we learned about food, asked tons of questions and had a great deal of laughs.  Even if you don't enjoy cooking, you will have a great time at The Social Table. I highly recommend making a reservation; but reserve sooner rather than later as she is completely booked solid through, I think, April.
