Best meal out of the week came from Rang’s Cocina Moderne. They offer a mix of Italian, Spanish, and Asian Cuisine. The food and service is always great and you sure can’t miss going here. This time we enjoyed the really nicely made focaccia bread with THREE different butters that represent the three basic styles of flavors that are offered here. They are delicious and different.
Dinner was fish Florentine (meltingly tender fish and really scrumptious potatoes)
and the new meatloaf with a special spiced guava sauce made with a special blend of high quality spices for a special zing.
(above is a secret zing ingredient to the guava sauce)
And we had to finish with Rang’s INCREDIBLE wasabi cheesecake with soy caramel.
We also enjoyed a nice lunch at Gung Chae Healthy Korean Kitchen. We enjoyed the Spicy Chicken Bibimbap and the Spicy Pork Bibimbap. They call them spicy but aren’t too spicy. It’s a casual place. You order and pay at the counter type place. The food was good to us but they were very generous with the chicken but on the day we were there they were very light with the pork. Last time my husband had the bulgogi and thought that was good too.
We also tried Montreal Smoked Meat for the first time at Lester’s Deli in Henderson. They are a Canadian based Deli that specializes in serving Montreal Smoked Meat (brisket), poutine, and a few more things.
Many people refer to the Montreal Smoked Meat as Pastrami. My opinion may differ from yours but this is good but doesn’t taste anything like pastrami. It’s milder without bark and has a slightly fatty feel in the mouth. To me it’s more like a pickled roast beef. Good but just not pastrami to me. I did think that the lox plate was good. Pickles were good. Fries are a bit over done for my tastes but maybe? they do them that way to hold up to the creamy cheese sauce for their poutine dish.
In NORTH Las Vegas – A brand NEW El Super – Super Market recently opened on Craig Road. I saw some things that I don’t find at other grocery markets. The bakery section looked really nice on the day of my visit. Purchased some hard to find epazote dried herbs there.
