Starry Kitchen

Believe it or NOT: that above is NOT meat. Guess what… BELIEVE IT! And believe this: that above is actually FRIGGIN’ GOOD too! That my friend(s), is the Jackfruit veggie version of our “thit kho” (want to jump into a time travel capsule re-cap of this oldie but goodie w/ tasty and tantalizing pics to lure you in to eat some of deez Pan-Asian taco tastiness… well click HERE foo’s!). All the same flavor, but with out the meaty… umm… MEAT! This is what we’re servin’ your arses as well as the THIT KHO this Wed nite (July 15) from 6-9p! Come try ‘em, compare ‘em, and revel in the flavor-lution that is… STARRY KITCHEN (or something like that)

And actually, forget the VEGGIE FRIENDS tag on this one. This one goes out to our JEWISH and Veggie friends ya’l! Hey, I think we can hold up a glass of manischewitz wine and say “L’haim” to that my Jewish brothers and sistah’s! L’HAIM!

Hey, is anyone wondering why out posts are shorter? Yeah, I’m wondering the same thing too. I was hoping you could give me the answer. :)

Things have been busy, but good busy (if there’s such a thing). So just be patient, and for the 2-3 people that enjoy reading this blog… we hope to give you more STARRY KITCHEN branded blog posts as well as the Pan-Asian Mexi-mix taco, burrito and banh mi sandwich goodness you’ve grown to love… or not?!?!

And since I’ve consistently added a different and hopefully funny video of the day… here’s another one from our friends Unco Same & Chin. Just watch it, laugh, cry, kick someone in the nutz for old times sake and enjoy:

ATTENTION all Starry Kitchen shoppers… we are going radio silent on flyers and going covert BLACK OPS!  I repeat, radio silent on… ummm… flyers?!?!  (and how does one going covert black ops when I’m posting on a publicly accessible blog anyway?!?!)

Alright, alright.  You’re probably still confused because I haven’t mentioned anything coherent since the beginning of this post (but isn’t that WHY you read this!!!).  Plus it’s my… I mean OUR blog darn it. If we want to be completely nonsensical and randomly refer to stuff that no one gets while debating the mating habits of goats (I actually even found a link for this one HERE), Salman Rushdie and why Padma Lakshmi (she’s so HOT & gotta love that TOP CHEF) is better off without him and she should marry Ned Flanders instead cause he’s the best-EST!

From Blog Pics…

I think I’ve lost everyone but Erik Tolo (thanks for the add Erik ^^).  While it could have been: Chuck Norris and his evil team of Solo Flex (sorry, no link this time, read the previous post suckas!) salesmen are on the loose, and we gotta lay low or else I might be coerced into trading all this Asian Mexi-mix goodness for a good for nuthin’ Solo Flex machine… I’m sorry to say it’s not.  We’ve been picked up on the radar by some suspectin’ individuals that have yet to experience the FLAVOR ENLIGHTENMENT that is Starry Kitchen.  SOOO, it’s time to go GGRS (Guerilla Grass Roots Style) and continue pushing this mutha sucka out there!  No more flyers, all FB updates, Twitter and emails.  And of course we’re talking about catering events now so that helps too. :p

Oh yeah, we have a picture of food above too!  haha  Sorry, when I eat Starry Kitchen food I reach Nirvana (the state of mind, not the rock band dummies!) and… well, you get it.  I just can’t be held responsible.  TODAY’S CULPRIT: thit kho tacos!  That is exactly what is pictured above.  The piece de resistance are the hard boiled eggs that are also cooked into the stew which gives them that rich and tasty brown color all us Vietnamese kids have grown to love.  And we sold out, and that’s the story I’m stickin’ to!

Check out our Facebook fan page (link in the right column foo’s) for more pics too!  For our first weekend night, it was pretty good.  Another shout out to Anderson Le for inviting some people out too!

OMG, this post still isn’t over yet?  Well, I still have another food pic to tantalize you with AND another hint… so like Freddie Mercury sings in one of my favorite Queen songs (oh come ON, do I NEED to give you a link for Freddie Mercury and/or Queen… you can type THAT into google yourself bozos! LOL) “the show must go OOOOOOoooN”

First, an artifact from last week’s CHICKEN EXPLORATION WEEK: Vietnamese Lime Chicken (…so DAMN GOOD!)

From Blog PicsNext stop on the blog posting train, the HINT OF THE DAY.  I wish I had an elaborate set of characters like in Pee Wee’s Playhouse to help me introduce this… don’t you?  if ANYONE is keeping up with the hints, I’d like to think I’ve kept up the difficulty a little bit.  Well, I just had an epiphany on how to keep it up.  Your ONLY hint today is related to film that I worked on called OWL AND THE SPARROW (keep on the look out, it’s good).  One part of the name lies on the home page HERE.  Enjoy!

Lastly, since we’re on a roll and I’m now the only one reading it to increase my stats on Google Analytics (it’s free and I can’t help being an blogging narcissist!), here are some pics of families stopping by to consume the Starry Kitchen goodness.  Check it out!

“Hey mommy, why are you posing with my tacos???”

Our friends with Child #1 and Child #2…pssst, the baby is Child #2!
From Blog PicsWe call him WEBSTER!!! And I know, HE’s not a SINGULAR family, and he wasn’t there but ain’t this a cute pic!



Alright, that’s it.  It was a good night.  See ya on Sunday, and we’ll keep posting more info until then.  Don’t forget that we’re prepping for catering too (we just catered today in fact for 20 people which was SCHWEET!), so if you have an event that you’re trying to impress people with… we’re the peeps to knock the socks (and maybe pants- wink wink) off that special someone.

Okay, gotta go relax now… and NO, that doesn’t involve cooking.  Here I am at my most relaxed:

HOLY MOLY!!!  It’s..THIT KHO TACOS (end caps lock…now).  Pictured above are taco-less “thit kho”.  I know, I know!  This could be considered slightly pervasive by “pushing the envelope” by those right wing Vietnamese cuisine conservatives, and seen as being obscene since they’re nekkid in photos… but damnit “Jim” if I don’t love to push the internet envelope to it’s outer boundaries and if I don’t now who will… WHO WIIIIIIIILL!!! (end scene)

If you need a reminder, here you go again JUST for you CHUCK NORRIS (darn you for getting me to buy that soloflex… DARN YOU I SAY!!!):

From Blog PicsSo it’s late, I’m crank-yankers and I have to wait a whole couple of months for a new Gossip Girl episode (I love my Queen Bee - XOXO) so I’ll just cut to the chase.  We’re on tomorrah (or today since it’s Wednesday already) for our June 10th, Wednesday night service from 6p - 9p.  As a redundant reminder, here’s our flyer :D :

From FlyersI unfortunately couldn’t hand out flyers tonight ‘cuz my printer ran out of ink printing out stupid TPS reports (damn you Lundberg), so PURDY please spread the word, forward the blog to a friend or 10 and come out for some fun under the… ummm, sunset?!??!

And to close, I’ll hand it off to Brak to lullaby us with this truly astonishing all-American classic.  Just as American as thit kho tacos are to every red-blooded Vietnamese-Texan-American like me! ^^
