Ryosuke Yoshioka, Chef-Owner of Sushi-Man Restaurant in San Francisco
I was chatting with a friend the other day when she asked me if I had heard that the owner of Sushi-Man Restaurant in San Francisco was stabbed to death. No, I hadn’t. I quickly searched Google and found the article on the San Francisco Chronicle’s website about the killing. Needless to say, I was shocked, dismayed, and downright sad to hear the news.
I was tooling around the flogosphere last month when I came across the Braised Oxtail post at Dinner Diary. It looked so good, I knew right then that I had to make some braised oxtail, and soon!
Pandan chiffon cake is one of my comfort foods from Malaysia. The fragrance of pandan, the softness of the cake, the sweetness of the coconut milk are all very much a part of Malaysia to me. There’s something wonderful about taking a bite of cake and having all these flavors and textures combine and then just as you’re savoring it, you’re left with only the memory of the light fragrant delight until the next bite, and the next.
