Lmao it's the nature of different culture. They have been here for 30 or 4o years and still eat the same food from home towns.

Honestly I don't have one.

Not classically trained at all. Just moved up in the world to get to where I am. I see a dish. I can make it.

I see a dish, I can change it and make it my own.

D@mn. A meal like.that and a Flexeril is a winner. Youre killing me with the grouper recipes and I think the last incorporated red snapper? Two of my favorite fish, unfortunately the local fish monger dude has outrageous prices.
One of Japanese advisors got me hooked on salmon and tuna done "tatami" style, but I haven't attempted it yet. He called it another name but I can't recall the name at the moment, much less spell or pronounce it. His English is way yonder better than my Japanese.

Well have to look up that "tatami"

Red snapper or any snapper in general is an easy/hard sell: guests will always buy it but most of the time I'll lose money on it. Cause of sizing issues.

Would your restaurant possibly offer delivery service . . . . to Los Angeles? That special kicks major ass! Any chance you guys watch "Top Chef"?

Lol we don't but do have one or two over your way.

Beverly Hills closed, but Costa Mesa is doing real well over there.

My wife and I used to. Not much anymore. We like the Gordon Ramsey shows like Hell's Kitchen and the one that's home cooks, especially when it's kids

LOL, either I butchered the name or the autocorrect put the fvck on me. It is tataki style tuna and salmon? I think tatami is a type of a mat made from rice straw.
My bad.

Not the Beverly Hills type myself, have worked there, but the place is too highfaloutin for me. Might have to check out the Cost Mesa location. We dig the Gordon Ramsey show with the kids as well.

Lol damn auto correct.

Looked up tatami.

Looks awesome. Could basically be another way of doing "poke" the Hawaiian dish.

You could try Costa Mesa it will be very good, can't say it would be better or the same as my location though

Looks very similar. Tataki is barely seared, I mean really lightly but is very good. What's the best way to know that I am buying sashimi grade fish, Sfla? I love rare/ raw tuna, salmon, etc., but want to make sure if I attempt to prepare it, I don't pick up parasites.

Hmm that's tuff Ag. I would say it's the exact same thing we say here about gear.

Have to trust the "source" u r getting it from.

You have publix there correct? Like I would never buy fish from them lol. They might get good quality sometimes. But not many people buy it. So it could sit for a day or two .

There are grades of tuna but I am unsure of them

Ah, dang. I was hoping you would say Publix, . I'll go back by the high priced fish monger guys place. He has a driver that makes nightly runs to the coast. Thanks, Sfla. Much appreciated, buddy.

If you are cooking the fish all the way through. Then publix isn't a bad option. But for sushi/ sashimi I wouldn't

I am really into Japanese and Chinese dishes.

My work is not like that, its 3/4lb prime burgers, and Americans bar and grill style food.

But my home cooking I do for family is always healthy, tasty, and beautiful looking.

I like this one alot, SALMON fried rice.

Marinate skinned salmon overnight in 70% soy sauce (low sod) and 30% general tso wok sauce.

Slightly steam (90 seconds max of serious rolling steam) fresh Brussels sprouts. Remove, rinse cold. Marinate in orange juice and zest. Over night.

Next day prepare a fried rice using brown rice, carrots, water chestnuts, and fresh peas.

Cook 4 cups of brown rice in water, set aside

Use grape seed oil as oil for fried rice.

Boil veggies for 3 to 5 min, add peas at end and drain.

Heat 2 tablespoons of grape seed oil in large pan or wok

Add veggies, fry for 45 seconds, add 1 cup of egg whites stiring briskly to scramble with veggies.

Add 4 cups cooked rice, fry thus mix turning it over on itself for 2 min

Grill salmon skin side down, closed lid, brushing with marinade frequently.

Grill Brussels sprouts on too rack, basting with orange chicken sauce. (Make from scratch, or store bought kikoman sauces are just as good notice not enough difference to write home about.

Plate and enjoy.

I like to keep salmon and rice seperate, some people like it mixed.

I am considering getting into sushi and sasishi , but need a good local source of fresh to frozen fishes

There's a bar here in L.A. called "Father's Office"; for years voted as having the best burger - we go maybe 1-2 x /year never had a better hamburger ever. Came here for AAS, got foodies as well - winner, winner.

We have a donut burger called 're hole in one' and a deep fried burger topped with 5oz pulled pork called the "divot" burger.

Both are guaranteed to explode your aorta. Lol

Awesome recipe!!

Check out one of the beginning pages I do a fried rice as well.

Do it crispy rice though. Ads texture and changes the flavor of the brown rice.
