I'm going.
Fuck ya'll.
Mmmmmm deeerrrrrrr
So ... let us take a little trip ...
Off to the right, that new seafood joint with all the stonework I shared a few weeks ago ...
To the left, though, my old stomping ground ...
Good old Morton's Market ...
Land of endless awesomeness ...
Where every item is ordered in from the best source ...
In fact, I even found hogleg's fav olive oil company offered ...
But this is about dessert, today ...
Say Hi! ...
I haven't been in around a year, so it was nice to see all of my favorite folks ...
There's so many stuffy people that shop there, the employees love D and I ...
Now, though ... cannoli ...
Swoooooooon!
Perfectly light, soft, layered crust ...
Rich, but not overly heavy filling ...
And magical chocolate chips that still manage to melt inside of 15 seconds despite coming out of the refrigerated case ...
Like everything that rocks, enjoyed quickly over the sink!
That ... well ... that's what I'm talkin' about ...

Very nice!
You got a "spot." It's good to have that, many people have Starbuck's and think that's pastry.

All of the best stuff I've ever posted here, came from there ...
Back when construction was slammin' busy and I worked 75-90 hrs each week, I shopped there all of the time ... the old Drunken Chef days ...
That's where the cave-aged gruyere came from, the Peppedew cheddar blocks, and buf moz/burrata etc ...
I've missed it, honestly, but Shipt is soooooo easy ...
It really is a magical place if you like to eat ...
They've got some awesome new stuff going on there, that's new since I was there last ...
Perhaps most exciting for me, chamber vac'd meat and vegetables in marinade that can be plopped right in your sous vide without having to do *ANY* prep ...
While they don't still have the loss-leader on the boneless/skinless chicken breasts at $2.99/lb ... it's only $3.99/lb ...
These chicken breast are 1.25 to 1.5 inches thick ... each half breast is over a lb ...
I cruised the cheese area to see what was doing, and found they still have all of the stuff for kick-ass pizza-making ...
It's a heavenly place, really. I'm glad you guy's tempted me to head back over there ... and I'm sure I'll be headed back soon, again, now ...
They had a whole shoulder of wild boar ...
That sounds fun.
They had air-chilled chicken, too, that I noticed.

When I was younger I used to eat a good bit of boar bacon at my friend's house ...
They hunted them in the palmetto brush on their citrus farm ...
Good stuff. I think I'd Google smoking the whole shoulder ... sounds fun.

They sold their farm to Tropicana in the early nineties for $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ ...
But ... here ... I think you can hunt boar on the public land for parts of the year (as long as I'm there, I think - I believe someone has to have an in-state driver's license, is all) ...
There's no shortage of deer and/or boar here ... but I believe the deer are small, if I'm not mistaken ...

Haha okay ...
Since I don't hunt, it's even funnier that I have a deer stand (bought for brew-in-a-bag) and a chamber vac and two extra chest freezers ...
I'm pretty sure the same license I renew yearly for fishing, applies to hunting, though ...
I like the journey. More posts like that one. Except when you go the the Russian baths.
Yes, yes ... smiling pics from my taint waxer ... I totally get it ...
