When Poirot was a puppy, he spent most of his time sleeping. |
I did not want to disturb his sleep, but he was too cute no to touch him while he was sleeping... |
But once he fell asleep, he did not wake up even when we touched him or made some noise. |

Today, I got a sudden crave for Spanish food for no reason, so we went to Toro in South End. This restaurant is always crowded, but does not accept reservation. Since we do not like to wait in line, we decided to go as soon as it opened (5 pm; but bar opens at 4:30 pm). |
However, when we arrived at 5:02 pm, 80% of tables were already occupied. Glad we came early. |
Bread. |
Pimientos del Padron (Hot green peppers with sea salt). Some were very spicy, others were not. Simple but very tasty. |
Water and iced tea in the Coke glasses. |
As always, Poirot was so curious about what was on the table. |
Crispy Chicken Salad. |
Crispy Chicken Wrap. Nothing to report about.... But we got enough energy to continue shopping. |
We got some clothes for my nephews (plus some clothes and shoes for ourselves!). Poirot got a little tired as he walked around quite a lot. |
Lots of foods (chips, salads, etc) on the table. |
Desserts and alcohols here. |
"Can I get something? Do you have anything to eat? I can take whatever you have!" |
My friend has three Labradors. These are two of them. They are very smart and good at playing Frisbee. |
Once a month, my husband goes to various restaurants for dinner with his "foodie" colleagues (~10 members). Tonight's restaurant was Fuloon which I mentioned several times in this blog. Since we live near-by, I decided to join the dinner. |
Minced Crabmeat with Sweet Corn Soup. But they used imitation crab instead of real crab meat!!! Cheating!! |
Spicy and Sour Nappa Cabbage. It was spicy, indeed. |
Special Fried Rice with Vinegar. I love vinegar, so I like this fried rice, too. |
Crabs with Garlic and Red Pepper. It takes a lot of efforts to get crab meat out from shell, but you can't stop eating it. |
Tea Smoked Duck. Duck meat was very crispy and not smelly. I think other people also liked this dish. |
Fresh Fish Fillets in Special Hot Sauce. Boiling oil and enormous amounts of chili peppers in the pot. |
After removing peppers, you can find fillets of fish. Fish was very tender and tasty. |
Wok Baked Shrimp and Scallops. I liked scallops, but did not like the sauce too much. |
Today we found a football in our backyard. Poirot got very excited! |
Because of the oval shape, Poirot could not predict where the ball would go, and he had to work hard to chase the ball and catch it. |
But in less than 5 min, he got tired of playing with the ball, and started eating grass. Poirot, you really have a short attention span... |
Today we were supposed to go for dinner with our friends who live near us, but they could not make it and thus we just went to a near-by Pan-Asian restaurant, All Seasons Table by ourselves. |
This restaurant serves dishes from various countries in Asia. This is Seafood Scallion Pancake. |
I ordered Pork in Malaysian Curry Sauce. It was not spicy at all, but pork was tender and it was not too bad. |
My husband ordered Basil Duck with Chili Thai Style. It didn't look too appealing, but the taste was OK. |
At that time, he was sleeping most of the day. |
He looked like he got lost and wondering where he was... |
But once he got used to the new environment, he was curious about everything and anything (maybe more than you wished for)! |
