I have news to share. Guest what? We’re moving back to Los Angeles! I know… You must be thinking “WHAT?” Long story short, Bryan got another new job, which is back in LA. Although no one has to go to the office right now (covid), he will need to go back to the office eventually. Since our apartment lease is ending next month, we have decided to move now instead of later.

Even though we have only been in the Bay Area for a year, I can’t tell you how much we love it up here. The greenery just can’t be compared. Redwood trees are all over the area on the west side. It feels very good looking at them and walking around them. Also, I never thought I will say that, but I love the suburban. Housing is more spread out, streets are bigger and it’s less crowded. Then, there is the accessibility of Asian food and grocery. The South Bay is so small. You can get from east to west or north to south in about 20 minutes, which is impossible in LA. It’s very convenient, especially during covid time.

We never regret moving up to the Bay Area. Bryan didn’t regret taking the job (the one that moved us up here) either. We’re very happy that we got the opportunity to live somewhere else other than Southern California. We wish we could have explored the Northern California more. We wish we could have more time meeting up with old friends and new friends. It was not an easy decision. But at this moment, moving back is for the better. I’m a bit sad, but I know we’ll come back to visit in the near future.

Ok, back to recipe. Salmon is my favorite go-to fish. Easy to get and flavorful! This recipe requires very little work. All you need is to season the salmon and cover the salmon with the sauce, then bake.

The sauce is a honey mustard sauce. Melted butter, honey, whole grain mustard, dijon mustard, lemon juice & garlic. Just stir everything together. It has a good balance of flavors, sweetness, richness & acidity. I have been kind of obsessed with whole grain mustard lately. The mustard seeds give the smooth sauce a little texture. It was so good that Bryan wish there was more sauce.

I know weeknights can get busy and chaotic. This recipe will be your best friend. You’ll need only 5 minutes to prep. Easy clean up too. Give this try and hope you will like it.

We’ll be moving in just a couple weeks, so I need to get back to packing. Have a wonderful week!

The food in the picture is sweet glutinous rice dumplings w/ black sesame 落湯糍(糯米糍). The word “糍” sounds similar to “錢”, so the dumplings represent money. Eating them will bring you lots of wealth! 

The dumplings are chewy & gooey like mochi. Coated in black sesame seeds. Right before eating, dip them in sugar. Perfect sweet treat for the new year!

We just can’t get enough of @somisomiicecream! T We just can’t get enough of @somisomiicecream! Their soft serve is creamy, yet not too sweet. Lots of choices too, like ube, matcha, black sesame etc. The taiyaki is crispy on the outside & filled w/ goodness, like Nutella, red bean & custard. My only wish is that they open a store in the San Gabriel Valley, so we don’t have to travel far every time!😆

2022 is coming to an end! It has been a much bette 2022 is coming to an end! It has been a much better year for me personally. We traveled a bit more (Denver, Monterey, Maine, & Boston) & ate lots of incredible food. I’m drooling just thinking about some of the food. Also, my parents flew in from HK. We finally got to see each other after 3 years. We spent time together & attended my sister’s wedding. And we all finally got covid. It’s looking like things are getting back to normal. I truly hope it is!

Galbi mandu (dumpling) from Chang Hwa Dang (CHD) a Galbi mandu (dumpling) from Chang Hwa Dang (CHD) are so damn GOOD! 🥟 Smokey, little sweet, meaty, & crispy skin. I could eat a few plates of those! We first tried the sampler, but was most impressed by the galbi ones. We like the pork too, but the jalapeño one was way too spicy for my taste. It actually has half of a jalapeño in it.🔥
