Iron Chef of course. I'm a very picky eater.
Did not have any tea yet. I think I'm going to make a huge pot of Sencha

Iron chef, I'd love to cook with a whole menagerie of ingredients in front of me.
This morning - The last of some ding dong that I had laying around.

Oooh find me a "gourmet chef" who would work for me and follow my orders... I'll be your slave forever..
Today I'm drinking Tea Gallery's Keemun and enjoying it very much! Rich deep taste. But it's the first steep and I made what is for me a long one... I'm going to hold it to the test! Yummy and delicious so far!!

I said BBQ slinger, cuz I could go for something like that, and outside. I made some pretty good tandoori chicken on the grill once..
This morning, finishing off yesterday's pot of 1980's Chang Ning Fangcha, a yummy pu-erh sample I got in the mail last week. Nice stuff!
Sal -- "Late filers"?? Don't you mean "on time" filers??

I sent mine off last week, earliest I've ever done it! Usually I'm an April 15th, stand in line at the post office kind of guy.

Hey Drax, I've never heard those terms when describing tea, but the second I read that, it put a label on a very distinct thing I taste in some of those younger Menghai shu pu-erhs! I'll have to add those terms to my tasting vocabulary, thanks.

Gourmet chef would be my choice but anyone would do as long as I get some good seafood or fish yumm.
A little tired of herbals. Maybe I am becomeing a caffeine addict

Iron Chef all the way. I drool everytime I see the original series from Japan. A little adventure each meal with the drama of dueling iron chefs, well, I guess 2 iron chefs each meal to keep it real and keep them on their toes!
Started the TeaDay finishing off dribs and drabs, seems to be a theme here as of late, but this means I also get to open new tea very soon! Anyway, a bit of several sencha, came out OK but not exceptional. SweeTea seemed to like it more than me. Lil Bit, Wulong, TEAh, and Ceylon stopped by, but I guess Pyrit slept in this morning.
Next up, Kagoshima sencha from Yuuki-Cha, much better than the morning brew.

blah blah blah SENCHA blah blah blah!!!

Fusionaire sounds just adventurous enough, blending cuisine from a couple of different cultures to make something delicious but not too over the top.
Today's lunch is left-over pork roast with sliced banana peppers, onions, tomatoes - that's about as fancy as my cooking gets.
Teas so far today: White Assam started the day, then to Chai at the office but its steeps are over so now to find something else to get me through the afternoon.
