Anyway, all trains and buses should lead to Kabobi

One place that gets more accessible is Cafe Beograd on Irving Park

I would use it more often to/from the Japanese American Service Committee near California & Lincoln, but the real issue is the frequency (same for the 11 bus).

(I took the 93 yesterday, entirely in Evanston)

Another great long jam in this studio footage. (note Boogarins poster in the background)

This is one of my favorite long instrumental outros. Apocalyptic content was eerily appropriate for early 2020.

used to go to Downtown Evanston a lot, for the go club (almost never since the kids...). 10Q is Korean. I used to mostly get the sandwiches but really everything has been good.

also generally a great, transit-accessible, quick, kid-friendly meal. exactly what we needed today.

A big side benefit of this appliance is that the kids can more easily watch me cook, and help out in age-appropriate ways

Not the best yakisoba I’ve made, but the most

My big thing right now is holding the 3-year-old’s hand

I've been using adobo sauce to accompany omelette—I really like it but 3yo just likes the omelette now—and that actually suggests using adobo sauce or mole with okonomiyaki.

Some little things:
Mix-and-match w/ pickles from both cultures.
Raw white onion as garnish instead of scallions.

Regular readers know I've been playing with putting adobo into fried rice. More pan Asian than strictly Japanese, but that's been nice.

Using adobo as miso substitute also seems worth exploring.

what I came up with: yakitori or kushiyaki w/ Mexican options for ingredients (some meat preparations, nopales), glaze, and dipping sauce. So basically grilling or deep frying w/ mixed ingredients/methods.

Details matter here, but I think there's promise.
