2. French beef stew / Pho pot-au-feu

At a glance, Cassia's French beef stew is no different from classic French practice-the beef steak is gently stewed in the broth, served with potatoes and carrots, and bone marrow-filled bones stick out from the edge of the bowl. But Cassia uses this dishChinese CasseroleYes, brothStrong but refreshingWith the aroma of charred onion, cinnamon and star anise.

Ray Garcia may be the most popular in Los Angeles this yearbreakthroughChef. His fluid cuisine underpins two new restaurants in the heart of Los Angeles.

Khinkali is a soup bun in northern Tbilisi, Georgia. About the size and weight of a lemon, the strong skin is folded in half and wrapped with the onion-flavored meat filling, forming a thick noodle on the top.

Remember the first time you faced crab meat Xiaolongbao at Dingtaifeng? There is something in common in the way of eating. Grasp the noodles on the top. This is the only part that is not hot; bite a small bite, suck the hot soup, and solve the remaining one or two.

You may still be holding noodles in your hands and theoretically you can eat them, but don't eat them anymore. In the end, a pile of noodles on the plate, like a large pile of empty shells in a seafood restaurant, witnessed a satisfying time.

Of course, Baroo will not directly give you pure mold or any mud. The Aspergillus here is a piece of fermented grain, mixed with various spices, dyed into a powder brown with beet, with a hint of salty mouth. Although this dish has roasted sunflower seeds and macadamia, the light nutty flavor of the dish itself seems to have nothing to do with these nuts.

 

If you have a seizure, this dish also has a concentrated seafood broth, some kind of crisps and rose-flavored powdered onions. The taste of Noorook is definitely something you have never tried before. But there isFuture taste.
