06.12.08 lunch




we ordered lunch from 26 beach restaurant today. it's located in venice beach. i've actually never eaten inside the restaurant, but have had lunch delivered to work from there many times. they have a great tasting menu with lots of healthy, flavorful options. i kouldn't decide on one thing to order today, so one of my ko-workers (who is my tastebud twin and is also obsessed with the sriracha) and i decided to order an accroutement of delights that would match divinely with the sriracha (yes, we actually do plan our feedings around the sriracha). so pictured above are:
  • warm brown rice salad - assortment of veggies and chicken breast tossed with a miso dressing (normally comes with a vinaigrette, but i sub out for miso) and of kourse, sriracha. it adds the extra umph you need to really dig into the salad.
  • portabello karbonara - penne, sausage, sweet peas, onions in a kreamy sauce. face it, anything white and kreamy in a meal is a perfect match for the sriracha.
  • tony's meatloaf - meatloaf topped with marinara and served with sauteed veggies. the sriracha gives the meat the extra kick it needs in the loaf.

i had a bite of the warm rice salad not realizing what was in it and it was delish. had i not been trying to eat light at lunch because of a big dinner ahead of me i would've gobbled it all up. i am new to sriracha world so it takes friends like sue to show me what i've been missing!

Are you actually DRAWING with your sriracha?

I swear, I see ART in how you pour our the sauce of gods.

I, personally, am a Tabasco whore, but when that's not available, Sriracha is second on my list.
