Banana Bread
This actually is the best banana bread you will ever taste. I'm serious. Whichever minion of Martha's came up with it deserves a nice firm handshake and a cigar. Or something. Anyways, this is the moistest (moistest?) banana bread you will taste. It keeps really well, although I don't think you'll have to worry about that.

Daring Cooks Dec Challenge- Salmon en croute

An easy Challenge... just what I needed this month. Considering all the cookie baking I've done just the last 2 weeks, I'm glad for a simple Challenge.

( Onward! )

chocolate cherry brownies

The tiny pieces of chopped dried cherry lended a subtle fruity tang to the velvety melt-in-your-mouth deep-flavoured brownies. Moist, chocolatey, and topped with the prettiest characteristic paper-thin crust, these smooth flourless-cake-like brownies may not be the signature fudgey chewy type that I love, but these dark brown squares are so packed full of flavour that it definitely deserve a place on your next party table, or in the Christmas giftbox you’re bringing over to your friend’s.

Hop over to my foodblog for the recipe!

Din Tai Fung in Sydney
My favourite restaurant in Sydney - my family ate there every night for an entire week. My favourite part was watching the guy who cuts the dumpling dough and then weighs and measures them periodically to make sure they're all exactly the same.

Gnocchi and crab in an uni sauce (Seattle)

Gnocchi with Crab, originally uploaded by Jen Chan. Read the blog entry

The vibrant yellow of the uni sauce was as pleasant to the eye as the taste was to my palate. My favourite dish of the night. Served with a white that was light and a great match to the gnocchi.

It was definitely worth a second visit to Elemental on foodpr0n.com
