A couple things i did at school, currently in baking and pastry class...

I tend to wing the recipe a bit. But...

1 loaf Safeway French Toast bread
3.5 cups Half&Half
2/3 cups brown sugar
1/4 cup butter
4 eggs beaten
3 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup butterscotch chips
Pinch of Cinnamon
2 tbl Bourbon

1. Preheat Oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Get a 9x13 pan.
3. Rip bread into 1-inch strips.
4. Spread evenly on pan.
5. Lightly toast in oven for a minute.
6. Sprinkle butterscotch chips over the layer of bread evenly.

In a decent size bowl:
1. Melt butter completely
2. Add eggs and beat.
3. Whisk in Half&Half, Cinnamon, Vanilla, & Bourbon
4. Gradually stir in brown sugar. (Don't dump all of it in at once)
5. Optional: Add pinch of nutmeg.
6. Pour mixture over bread. (Make sure to soak all of the bread)
7. Let mixture sit for a couple minutes. (I push on the bread to get
It all soaked up)
8. Bake on middle or bottom rack for 50 mins.

You should probably google a bourbon sauce of some kind. I ran out of sugar for a sauce, so I can't recommend one. I thought the pudding was decent by itself, but a sauce would definitely put it over the top.

It was actually really cheap, it dropped down in price this past year. I'm paying 20K. If you were to get financial aid, it'll make it much easier too.

What place on the Wharf did you get the clam chowder and calamari?  Also, was the Chinese donut from San Tung's as well?  Thanks in advance!

^ The clam chowder was at: http://www.yelp.com/biz/sabella-and-la-torre-san-francisco#query:fisherman's wharf clam chowder

Skip the calamari, trust me...It was okay, but wasn't that great. The Chinese donut is at Fat Wong's in San Bruno/San Mateo. Love that place!

 

[mojodmonky1]

Just got back from a quick vacation to Japan (Tokyo/Osaka/Kyoto) and China (Shanghai/Hangzhou) this Sunday. The food, for the most part, was outstanding. I dont really take any pics of my food because I'm too fat/impatient and just want to start chowing down ASAP.

Even before going to Shanghai I loved Xiao Long Bao (shanghai soup dumplings) but now I am borderline obsessed with em. I had a chance to take a cooking class on how to make them while I was out there, with mixed results. I'm not the most dexterous person out there, and I am cursed with short sausage fingers.
