Starry Kitchen

Good morning sunshine!

It’s another day, and another day closer to our Wednesday night service! ^_^  Thanks again to Harold for a great post yesterday.  It made us all verklempt (stupid spell checker, that’s Yiddish for being all choked up on emotion fool!)  And thanks to you (not in a sarcastic way, I swear) now the entire internetS knows our gate code (#141 for the rest of the internets that hasn’t found it yet), so there’s no turning back.

WHY CAN’T YOU FIND US GOOGLE MAPS? WHHHYYYYYY??

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that we’re finding that people are getting lost when using Google Maps (doh!)  It’s taking people like 2-3 miles west of where we actually are.  NOW I know why people are getting lost (outside of the fact when n00bs drive up and then realize “oh my, it really IS an apartment building”)  SO, one of our new patrons and best-est friends (we’ll get to be BFFFFFF’s soon.. I’m sure of it) figured out the trick to getting the right directions.  I’ve already changed it on Yelp, but the correction is a SIMPLE space between the double ‘C’ on Mc Cormick:

11049 Mc Cormick #205
North Hollywood, CA 91601

It’s dumb, but that’s the way it is here in the Wild West of… North… Hollywood. Hmmmm, that doesn’t quite roll off one’s tongue very well, but that’s just the way we does it here… YESSIREE! ;)

ACH! Stop Wasting Time, WHAT are we eating on Wednesday already???

WHOA, slow down young padawan. In due time… in due time… and I guess the time is… now… I think. :)

You can already see the pics in the convenient slide show above in 2 exciting parts (because it’s THAT epic ^_^).  Or if you want to make it easy and can’t tell at a glance, it’s VN BAKED GROUND GARLIC PORK (or NEM NUONG for the Vietnamese or BRODARD restaurant inclined).

“Why the two part riddle?” you MIGHT just ask me.  Oh mom, you know how to make this so why do you kid with me so!

Well mom, since your senility is setting in (she’s actually quite coherent and present, so I will probably give me a good butt-kicking and no home cooked food next time I’m back in TX) we take-sies the meat-sies and puts in the fried egg roll wrapper…sies and we add it in for one crispy culinary adventure you guys will not soon forget (unless your food has that “special” ingredient like in Randall Park’s hilarious short… THE FOOD, which I’ll include below).  And to top that off, we make this AWESOME-TACULAR special Vietnamese sauce that traditionally compliments the meat, and is also incredibly pain staking to make (but we promise it’s “conflict free”) but OOOOH delish.  We likes to call it our YUM YUM SK SAUCE!

So what’s this we hear about expansion plans?

My answer to that can be summed up this clip (which I think I’ve used in a post before… but BLAH… who cares):

And if you’re still reading, you get the benefit of actually hearing (or in this case “reading”) the update.  WELL, we’re still figuring things out and we ARE looking at taking over a downtown location.  The ONLY thing with it is that we won’t be able to keep our current concept at this location, but it will be a variation…  And it will still be JUST as tasty at the very least.  And that’s not to say we won’t do our concept in other ways… we HAVE ideas! ^_^

Also, in the next day or two we’ll probably announce a SUPA DUPA SPECIALISTIC SATURDAY BIRTHDAY BRUNCH-TACULAR (my b-day’s on the 25th… WHOOPEE), but just surf Facebook or something until we make that announcement.  M’kay?

Alrighty, for that ONE person that’s actually read through all of this, check out this HILARIOUS short film called THE FOOD.  Not only does this make me laugh, but that “Asian looking guy”, Randall Park, makes me laughsies too (he’s AWESOME in THE PEOPLE I SLEPT WITH that yours truly happens to be involved in ^_^).

“How ‘bout some NOSE pizza?”  That’s hilarious I tell ya… HILARIOUS!

But beware, this clip ain’t for the kiddies (unless they’re like 8 or something because they use ALL these profanities already… trust me!):

I think we’ll just end on that note (hopefully it was a funny note for you ^_^).  See ya Wednesday!

Peace,

Team SK

So sorry blog entries have been lacking.  If you missed it, we’re BACK in action today (Sun, Sept 6th). We’re serving CHINESE SPICED HAMBURGER, SESAME CRUSTED TOFU all served with a side of JAPANESE GARLIC NOODLES.
Btw, we thought everyone would be gone for Labor Day weekend… But we were wrong.  We anticipate a complete sellout.  Hope to see you here!

WOW,

This is either a really LATE post, or REALLY early! ^_^

So, it’s technically Sunday, so we tell you what we’re trying.

Meat: SOY-GINGER BRAISED GARLIC CHICKEN

Veggie: SESAME CRUSTED TOFU

Side: GARLIC SUN-DRIED TOMATO MACARONI

The best way I can describe SOY-GINGER BRAISED GARLIC CHICKEN is: SUCCULENT-LICIOUS!  Now, I have a penchant for making up words (or I’m just an idiot at best), but if that doesn’t work… it has a similarity to our Taiwanese 3-cup chicken but w/ more soy, garlic and ginger sprinkled in there.  And if you haven’t had that dish…hmmmm… how ‘bout it’s just plain good???  ^_^

Btw, I JUST found out the KITCHEN NINJA marinates this tofu dish in a sake & soy sauce concoction. SWEET!  She never ceases to amaze me.

Alrighty, gotta get some sleep to get ready to serve your from our (and this is something I got from an inquiry recently) covert culinary operation!  That just sums it up, right?

Xoxo,

Team SK
