the BASTARD BURRITO
Until last week, I had not eaten a burrito for over 20 years. That is one thing I know about. Things I do not know about are how to build a traditional burrito, if in fact the burrito is traditional Mexican cooking at all. But I am in luck because I have a default setting…

Steak and the things I might like to have with it ie. Cafe de Paris butter
Steak is something that is honoured with no particular favourite sauce/dressing for me. It could be something green and herbaceous. Maybe salsa verde or a twangy chimmichurri. It might be something creamy. A porcini mushroom and bacon sauce perhaps. Or maybe a classic jus or gravy. I have been known to adorn a nice steak…
