"The pulled pork was fantastic!!  Believe this is now my favorite.  Can't wait for lunch!"  - Karen 

"Loved the pork and the sweet garlic ranch. Tasty!"--Irene "It was absolutely WONDERFUL!!!! The pulled pork was so tender, and had an incredible amount of flavor. Both my husband and I raved over it, and can't wait to try more of your yummy dinners." - Debi

If you're not a fan of pork, this dish might just turn you into a pork lover. It is pure torture to be in the same room while this is slow cooking for 5 hours! The pork is incredibly tender, juicy and massively savory. It goes perfectly with the Garlic Rice. And finally, to top it off are 2 sauces that totally compliment each other: Spicy Cilantro and Sweet Garlic Ranch, which you can also use for your salad dressing!

Menu: Mar. 28th - 31st




MONDAY




Lemongrass Chicken w/ Steamed Rice & Veggie Stir Fry

"Dinner was yummy! Everyone else missed out!" - Nicole

Get ready for a fantastic fantastic treat.  This is old school lemongrass chicken.  You may have a hard time finding this at restaurants.  Skinless chicken thighs are deboned then cooked with the bones, carmelized onions, garlic and lemongrass until it looks like what you see in the pic- a sweet, savory pot of tender chicken sitting in a sauce that I call liquid gold.  You will want to pour it all over your rice it's so good.  This is a dinner I can guarantee you will not have any leftovers.   


TUESDAY

 *Grilled Salmon w/ Pineapple Salsa, Coconut Brown Rice 
& Sweet Sesame Spinach Salad

Grilled salmon topped with a sweet and tangy pineapple salsa.  The sticky coconut brown rice is so good, it can almost pass as dessert.  Finish off with a healthy spinach and mushroom salad with a sweet sesame dressing. 


WEDNESDAY


*Shrimp & Veggie Tempura w/ Japanese Rice
& Miso Soup


"The meal last night was awesome!!! I would have eaten the whole thing if my kids didn't fight over it!!! LOL We loved it and we will definitely order that again!!! My oldest daughter did not finish her plate of food so my youngest slid it over and finished it for her!!! LOL This is definitely one of my favorite meals!!" -Lydia 


"My husband and I absolutely loved the Shrimp and Veggie Tempura.  The green beans were wonderfully crispy, the best I think I've ever had." - Susan

"The shrimp/veggie tempura was wonderful!!  Not a morsel left :) Actually everything was really good...rice and soup as wellIt was the best miso soup we've ever had." - Karen

 
This is one of my favorite things to eat--Tempura with a bowl of steamy sticky Japanese rice and a sweet tempura dipping sauce.   Reheat tempura in the oven at 375 until crispy.  While you're waiting, you can sip on a hot bowl of miso. 


THURSDAY


Country Chicken Salad w/ Wild Rice & Green Beans

 TUESDAY
Honey Pecan Salmon w/ Cinnamon Sweet Potatoes 
& Sauteed Broccoli 

*2/$25 or 4/$45*

"I loved everything about the salmon dinner! and it still felt healthy and well-balanced despite the candied pecans (which were by far the BEST part)." - Amy


"Another great dinner!  You were right about the pecans!" - Karen
  
If you're a fan of those yummy sticky cinnamon buns, you are in for a treat!  Just replace the bun with a piece of salmon and you can still get the same sweet and crunchy topping without the obscene calories. The salmon is coated with honey and pecans then pan seared. This goes beautifully with the cinnamon sweet potatoes and sauteed broccoli. 




WEDNESDAY
 Saigon Pulled Pork w/ Rice Noodles

"I think the Saigon Pulled Pork is one of my favorite.  It's even better
then the regular pulled pork.  I was glad that my husband wasn't home last
night so I could have lunch today!" -  Irene

Pulled Pork Saigon style!  Pork shoulder slow cooked with caramelized lemongrass and garlic.  Served this at my first Dupont luncheon last Friday, and was told there were some happy eaters!  As requested,  it's on the menu this week!



THURSDAY



Peruvian Chicken w/ Garlic Rice, Plantains and Side Salad
*2/$25 or 4/$45*

"Last night's dinner (Peruvian Chicken) got a huge WOW!  Definitely a keeper! " - Suzanne  

"The Peruvian Chicken last night was delicious!!!  My mom, my husband and I enjoyed it very much last night.  Can't wait to have the left over for lunch today. YUM!!!" - Irene


First, let me warn you, this is a lot of food!  I don't make this often, but I always look forward to it when I do.  This is just one way I'd like to show my appreciation for all my customers.  One whole chicken marinated in a smoky cumin sauce then slow roasted. Just go ahead and put away your forks. The best way to eat this is to rip apart the meat with your hands, then dip it in either the Sweet Ranch or the Cilantro Sauce. Follow up with a sweet piece of plantain.and the rich and savory garlic rice.  When I serve this to my family, I place the salad on the bottom of the rice and pour some sauce over it.  You will love the variety of flavors working so well together!

Get ready for a delightful combination of flavors on your plate!  Garlic sauteed chicken breasts with a creamy white wine caper sauce over spaghetti (you won't believe it's actually whole wheat!).  Although no picture available, the spinach salad can stand on its own.  Spinach, grilled pears, roasted pecans, artichoke hearts and feta tossed with a white wine vinaigrette.  


TUESDAY

Bacon Wrapped Pork Loin w/ Garlic Angel Hair
& Apple Pecan Salad w/ Honey Mustard Vinaigrette

I really can't tell you what I like most about this dinner.  It could be the crunchy yet soft grilled garlic bread, the rich orzo with sweet veggies or the meaty panko & herb cod fillet that would make it easy for anyone to give up eating meat. I actually ate all my garlic bread and was half way through the orzo before I realized there was more dinner to enjoy.  You will be pleasantly surprised to know this entire dinner is butter free.  Only olive oil was used.
