BLACK PEPPER BEEF

DINNER AT HOME

Came home from a day trip to Kona to have a delicious Black Pepper Beef dinner on the lanai with my gals.  This was peppery and so good!

I really enjoyed Morimoto Asia.  Food and service were great.  My Wife loved the service but wasn't as happy with the food as me.  From the time we entered Morimoto the service was exceptional.  Our waiter was a super star and guided us through the menu and every ingredient and preparation.  He knew his stuff and when he described the Special Sea Bass we immediately said "bring it".  We started with the Hamachi Tacos.  Mini Tacos with a Wonton shell filled with fresh Hamachi.  The Guacamole and JalapeƱo complimented the fish well and made these little bites the perfect way to start our meal.  Next up was the Tuna Pizza which has been a favorite of mine since eating it at Morimoto's original restaurant in Waikiki.  The fresh Ahi was delicious but there were Olives on the Pizza that shouldn't have been there.  Totally overpowered the taste of the Ahi.  I ended up picking them all off the Pizza.  The Sticky Ribs were amazing.  Perfectly cooked so the meat just fell off the bone.  A little bit sweet and a perfect little spice.  This is a must eat appetizer.  We went for the Black Pepper Beef because they do not prepare it at the table.  Some of the other dishes are brought to the table and cooked on a hot stone.  The outdoor terrace was pretty hot and filled with smoke from other tables cooking.  This all went away when they opened the sunscreens as the sun set.  I loved the Black Pepper Beef.  The beef was cooked to perfection and mixed with vegetables and a delicious sauce.  If I were not eating low carb, I would have ordered a bowl of rice and drenched it with the sauce.  We were going to order the Angry Lobster but when our waiter explained the Sea Bass Special we ordered it.  The Sea Bass was amazing.  Cooked perfectly with a nice sweet crust on the outside and moist on the inside.  This is why you go out to eat and pay $30 or $40 for an entree.  I am going back to Morimoto Asia to try some more menu items.  In my world this place rocks!

BLACK PEPPER FILET MIGNON

DINNER AT HOME

We had an incredible Black Pepper Filet Mignon at EMC Seafood & Raw Bar on Santana Row in San Jose.  The meat was seasoned perfectly and cooked to a perfect medium rare.  My Wife fell in love with the dish and wanted to replicate it when we got home.  She did it and it came out pretty perfect.  Great flavor and perfectly cooked.  She added her own touch with Red and Green Bell Peppers, Green Onion.  This will now be on our favorite dinner rotation.

PANDA EXPRESS LOW CARB

PANDA EXPRESS
SOMEWHERE IN HONOLULU

When my co-workers said they were going to Panda Express I said no way for me because the food there is really high in carbs.  I decided to check out their website to see what menu items were low carb because I was so hungry.  Went with Veggies in place of Rice or Noodles along with Black Pepper Beef and Pepper Chicken.  Both were delicious and I even enjoyed the Broccoli which was cooked perfectly.  I ate half of this plate one day and half the next so I think this would be ok for my low carb diet.  Yummy too!

HOURS:  Daily 10:30AM - 10PM / Friday and Saturday 10:30AM - 10:30PM

After a long work week decided to order some Chinese food and have it delivered by Bite Squad.  Went to the Bite Squad app and ordered from Little Village Noodle House in minutes.  Set the time I wanted the food to arrive and it was at my house on time and hot.  Was able to track the delivery on my phone so the Bite Squad experience was excellent.  Food was good too.  We Started with the Mu-Shu Pork Rolls ($8) served with tortillas and Plum Sauce.  Served with three flour tortillas so you can make burritos.  My Wife really liked these. The Hot and Sour Soup ($10.75) came with a nice portion for 3 or 4 people.  The soup was hot and was good.  Just thought something was missing to make this a really great soup.  The Sweet and Sour Pork ($12.20) was really good.  I liked the large pieces of Onion and Pineapple along with the Pork.  The Black Pepper Beef ($11.75) was delicious and served with lots of onions.  Really liked the peppery flavor.  The Szechwan Spicy Chicken looked a bit dry but had nice flavor and a bit of heat.  Would be great though if this dish had a bit of sauce.  All in all our Chinese take-out was great.  Watched a movie on Pay per View and enjoyed a quiet evening at home with the Wife.  Definitely will do this dinner at home again with Bite Squad delivery.
