Wine: Domaine Des Relagnes Cotes-Du-Rhone 2003
Cliff had a cold for a week and apparently is guilty of giving it to Cathy. Sunday night we cancelled going to Lucques (our usual Sunday dinning). Instead since we were sick, we had Thai delivered from our local Silver Lake Thai Restaurant: Rambutan.
On Monday, we always eat at Campanile, but due to the immigration demonstrations the restaurant closed. We know many immigrants both legal and illegal and are in total sympathy with their desire to obtain legal status.
Since Campanile was closed and we were sick it seemed like a perfect night to cook at home. For a first course we had the left over Larb from Rambutan. We planned to cook only one course: Orecchiette Pasta with Rapini (Broccoli di Rape). It is made with sausage and gave us another reason to use the sausage from Fra’ Mani Handcrafted Salumi. The sausage had passed the test, we really like it. We let Chris at The Cheese Store of Silverlake know, and hopefully he will stock it! Cathy had adapted the recipe from Julia Child: Cooking with Master Chefs. It is another winning pasta recipe. It was great the first night and will make delicious leftovers.
For dessert we had a Chocolate Chip Cookie we had previously purchased at one of our favorite places: Clementine.
