Part 2: What Then?

I promise I have a life, but I couldn't help writing part 2 today! This takes place the same day as the "Development Day" when Syd and Carmy are thrown off by each other's answers during an ice breaker activity. Post-season 2. Feel-good fluff.

"So those are the menu changes for Chicago Restaurant Week. If you have questions, feel free to ask me or Chef Sydney. You should also have an email from Natalie by later today. Okay, let's prep for night service!"

Carmy closed the meeting, grateful that it was finally over. He was no longer afraid of public speaking after rising in the ranks of various kitchens, but his mind was not in this ever since the ice breaker. He, Carmen Berzatto, had made Sydney's favorite meal ever? The last time he prepared the pork confit and the Milk and Honey dishes she mentioned was several years ago. Back then he was at Eleven Madison Park, a rising star on the culinary scene, who chain-smoked, slept 3 hours a night, and was berated by the EC daily. It was a nightmare peppered with flashes of genius. He was dying to ask her about it, but before he could get her attention Sydney had slipped into the kitchen.

He stared disappointed at the window that separated the dining area and kitchen.

"Hey Bear, what's up with you?" Richie said sidling up to him trying to follow his gaze.

"Nothing cousin."

"Yeah, right. I missed when it happened, but it seems like you crashed and had to reboot during the meeting. Then you were lost in Sydney-land. Want to talk about it?"

Carmy rubbed his eyes and raked his hands through his hair. When he used both hands, Richie knew without a doubt he had hit on something.

"First, cool it about Syd. That handout you gave us was really cute. And yes, there's something on my mind, but it's not for me to say."

Richie grinned and rubbed Carmy's shoulder.

"Fine, just get your head together because tonight is going to be loaded and it includes three anniversaries and a birthday. And second, you need to cool it about her or do something. It's like I'm living in The Wonder Years with Kevin and Winnie."

"What?"

"Oh, right. That's probably before your time. Kids!"

With that Richie sauntered over to the host stands to strategize with the wait staff and hosts.

Meanwhile in the kitchen, Sydney who had a thousand things to do, was adding at least a hundred more onto her plate. She didn't want to appear like she had a moment to spare. She and Carmy could talk at the end of the night as usual, without any eavesdropping. This would also give her time to think of an explanation as to why she never mentioned eating at Eleven Madison Park and that she wasn't a stalker who followed him to The Beef. To top off this awkward sundae, Carmy casually admitted his favorite part of the day was closing, the only time they are alone every day. She hoped no one else had connected the dots on that last part.

The afternoon and the night never went quicker to her chagrin. Even when one of the line cooks was sent home due to illness and a large group put in an order for 7 Fishes two minutes before tickets closed, she thought the night couldn't last long enough. Fortunately, Carmy seemed resigned to waiting and didn't look at her more than usual. In a flash service was over and no one was in the mood to hang around. By 11:00pm Sydney had cleaned her station for the third time and forced herself to go to Carm's office. He sat there pretending to do busy work, patiently waiting like a child who consoled himself that his parents wouldn't make him wait too long to open his Christmas presents.

"Hey Syd...it was a good night," he said softly not wanting to scare her away.

Sydney nodded and took a seat. Might as well get it over with it.

"Okay, yes. You made the best meal I've ever had. During a break at the CIA, I went to NYC and ate everywhere on my list, including Eleven Madison Park. It was a Wednesday night and I ordered several things including pork confit and Milk and Honey."

Sydney couldn't help closing her eyes and smiling at the memory. Her guard began to slip.

"Carm, it was like tasting my future and the best part of my past at the same time. I asked the waiter who made those dishes and he said Carmen Berzatto."

Carmen leaned forward on the desk. Whenever Sydney praised him, he felt like a cactus in an unexpected downpour. He wouldn't waste a single word. Her sunny existence and her belief in him sustained him during his dry seasons. He reached for her whenever he looked at the debt they still owed Uncle Cicero, when his mother finally visited The Bear and cried saying that he had erased Mikey, and even when their success seemed too good to be true. 

Sydney opened her eyes to find him looking at her in the way he had. It was terrifying because she had a very specific plan for her career. It also thrilled her, knowing the power she had over him. Five months ago, she had been begging for his focus and now she knew every her mood, glance, and word she spoke impacted him. Once for the fun of it during a slow night she stared at him until she drew his attention and smiled. He blushed, smiled back, came towards her without saying "corner", and crashed into one of the servers, sending three Michael cannoli to the floor. That was three months ago when she first realized something was going on with him. She'd refused to abuse her power since, going so far as to convince herself that she was overestimating his feelings. Then he said the best part of his day was closing. She hoped, well sort of hoped, that they could maintain this close, but not too close partnership and friendship without complications.

After a long pause Carmen sighed and sat back in his chair.

"So, how did you find me?"

"Well, like I said when we met, it was the job posting. I recognized your name and also The Beef from my dad taking me here."

She shrugged thoughtfully.

"It felt like it was meant to be. It gave me hope for the first time since Sheridan went under."

He nodded.

"It's really strange. You came here because I inspired you and the only reason, I felt capable of attempting something this big was because of you" he said gesturing to the ceiling.

"Yeah?" Sydney whispered.

"Yeah."

He stood up and walked around to sit on the desk facing her. Now, Sydney felt vulnerable looking up at him. It was so easy for him to unnerve her when he spoke this way, like under the table.

Carmy took one her hands and after a moment brought it to his lips.

"Thank you for telling me, Syd. It means a lot."

Sydney was unable to speak. Her throat had closed.

"Soon, is your one year work anniversary and I think we should celebrate."

She nodded.

Carmy set her hand down.

"It's late. I'll drive you home."

With that they left the office, gathered their stuff, and walked to his car in silence.

As they drove, Sydney attempted to talk herself down. Was that hand kiss, an Italian thing? Possibly. It also seemed like Carmy decided to do...something, but what? Worse, she was feeling like they had traded positions in mere seconds. She'd enjoyed having the upper hand. Oh, well. With a goodnight's rest she'd be back in form tomorrow. Maybe "accidentally" brush past him, or ask him to lift something heavy for her and comment on his strength. Then it would be game over for poor Carmy bear. For now, she wouldn't worry about the work anniversary. It was probably just going to be a cake Carm commissioned Marcus to bake.

Probably.

Convenience Meets Faith: The Rise of Halal Meal Delivery Services

Halal meal delivery services are transforming the way people enjoy convenient, delicious, and ethically prepared food, especially for those adhering to specific dietary requirements. For those observing a Halal lifestyle, finding meals that align with religious guidelines can sometimes be a challenge, especially in places where options are limited or where traditional fast-food chains don’t meet these standards. The growth of Halal-certified meal delivery services offers a solution, providing not only convenience but also peace of mind for individuals and families who seek meals prepared with integrity and respect for Islamic dietary laws.

The modern lifestyle often demands quick, accessible food options. Balancing a busy schedule with family, work, and social commitments can leave little time for cooking, yet traditional fast food and some restaurant options may not offer Halal-certified ingredients or processes. Halal meal delivery services bridge this gap, ensuring that busy professionals, students, and families can access fresh, wholesome, and, most importantly, Halal-compliant meals with minimal hassle. These services deliver directly to the customer’s doorstep, eliminating the need for meal planning, grocery shopping, and cooking. This way, individuals who adhere to a Halal diet can focus on their commitments without compromising their dietary values.

One of the primary concerns for consumers seeking Halal food is the assurance that the food’s preparation follows Islamic guidelines. Halal certification is a process that confirms ingredients, preparation methods, and handling adhere to Islamic dietary laws. By offering Halal-certified meals, these meal delivery services allow their customers to eat with confidence, knowing that every step of the process—from sourcing to cooking to packaging—has been undertaken with adherence to these guidelines. This certification is essential for peace of mind, as it guarantees that the ingredients used are free from prohibited items like pork and alcohol and that animals were slaughtered according to Halal procedures.

Beyond religious observance, Halal meal delivery services also emphasize quality and nutrition. Providers often partner with certified butchers and local suppliers, using only fresh ingredients to craft meals that are both healthy and satisfying. Menus typically include a wide variety of dishes, often inspired by global flavors and traditional cuisine, which appeal to a broad spectrum of tastes and preferences. From classic comfort foods to international delicacies, Halal meal delivery services offer an exciting and diverse culinary experience that doesn’t sacrifice quality or taste. Many services also provide options that cater to additional dietary needs, such as vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets, broadening the appeal for households with diverse nutritional requirements.

Sustainability and mindful consumption are other important values supported by Halal meal delivery services. The preparation and distribution processes used by these services aim to reduce food waste by providing portion-controlled meals, which not only minimizes leftovers but also encourages more mindful eating. Many companies are also adopting eco-friendly packaging and delivery methods, reducing their environmental impact and appealing to a more conscientious consumer base. For customers, knowing that their food is both ethically sourced and environmentally responsible enhances the overall experience of using a Halal meal delivery service.

Another key advantage of Delicious Home Cooked Meals in Sydney is its convenience. Most services provide flexible subscription plans, allowing customers to select meals for daily, weekly, or monthly delivery. Users can conveniently choose from a variety of meal plans that best fit their schedules and preferences, making it easy to maintain a Halal diet even on the busiest days. In addition, these services usually offer options for customization, allowing users to tailor meals to their specific tastes. Some services even provide family-sized portions, making it easy to share a delicious meal with loved ones without the hassle of cooking or cleaning up afterward.

The positive impact of Halal meal delivery services extends beyond individual households to the broader community. These services support local Halal-certified suppliers, contributing to the growth and development of the Halal food industry. They create job opportunities, provide valuable services to communities with diverse dietary needs, and promote a more inclusive food industry that caters to individuals from various backgrounds and faiths. As the demand for Halal food grows, the availability and accessibility of Halal meal delivery services will continue to expand, allowing more people to enjoy the convenience and peace of mind that these services provide.

In essence, Halal meal delivery services offer a harmonious blend of convenience, quality, and respect for Islamic dietary values. They empower people to embrace their busy lifestyles while adhering to their faith, bridging the gap between tradition and modernity in a way that’s both accessible and enjoyable. With the growing interest in Halal-certified products, these services are set to become an integral part of many people’s lives, making it easier than ever to maintain a Halal diet without compromise. For anyone looking to simplify mealtime without sacrificing quality, nutrition, or ethical values, Halal meal delivery services present a delicious and practical solution.

Yesterday, we got the chance to dine at Central BBQ in Lidcombe in Western Sydney for the first time.

The ambiance is nice and the place is conveniently situated at the heart of Lidcombe, one of the best places for food in Western Sydney. It’s very accessible both by private and public transportation.

Even though it was just me and my husband, we didn’t hesitate to order as many dishes as these. Anyway, this is the first time we’ve been here so we wanted to make the most out of our visit and besides, we can take home the left over.

The beef brisket wasn’t marinated at all, so it’s up to the guests to season it with their desired ingredients.

Meanwhile, the beef bulgogi had that evident taste of sweet soy. We enjoyed both dishes and we immediately became satisfied and full.

Each dining experience comes with complimentary side dishes, which include japchae, salads, potatoes, and pickled vegetables such as kimchi.

Among all, I enjoyed the cheese pork ribs the most. Even if I was already full, I couldn’t stop myself from eating it. It also comes with pieces of tteokbokki (Korean rice cake) which gives it a chewy texture, so it’s not just all meaty.

I ordered the mild spicy version (there’s a spicier option!) and it didn’t disappoint me at all. I love spicy food but I don’t like too much spicy food to the point that the chili already overpowers the savoury goodness brought by the other ingredients.

Out of five stars, my rating is: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Absolutely perfect! I can’t wait to go back to Central BBQ in Lidcombe to try their other menu offerings.

Review: Irene’s Restaurant In Newtown

Irene's is a vibrant pop-up restaurant located in the former space of the beloved Newtown diner Hartsyard. Co-owned by Jarrod Walsh and Dot Lee of Hartsyard, and helmed by Indian-born chef Neville Dsouza, the restaurant pays homage to Dsouza's childhood memories of his aunt Irene's cooking.

While not strictly an Indian restaurant, Dsouza incorporates bold flavors and nods to his upbringing into the dishes he creates. For example, the goat curry on the menu follows his aunt's original recipe, which he still has in her own handwriting. This staple dish is made using a whole goat from Marrickville's Whole Beast Butchery and is served with bread rolls and raita.

Other menu items include a salty, sour, and crispy cucumber snack with goat's curd from Rozelle's Willowbrae Cheese and chillies, as well as larger plates such as fried pork loin with 'nduja butter and tamarind chicken. For dessert, there might be a mix of raw and ripe mangoes with chipotle oil, which Dsouza recalls buying from street vendors in Mumbai.

The drinks list also has a personal touch, with Dsouza's favorite Kingfisher beer and a mango lassi spiked with yoghurt-washed Brix Distillers white rum, mango syrup, and lime on offer. Irene's offers authentic, produce-driven cuisine inspired by Dsouza's family traditions and his experiences working in some of Sydney's top restaurants.

Are You Searching Best Halal Restaurant Sydney?

Whatever the type of your occasion, food is at the top of the priority list. The location may not be as significant as long as people have access to the basic amenities such as parking, restrooms, a meeting place, tables and chairs and carpets. Nothing, however, is more important than eating.

Many corporate gatherings are limited in size. Event managers must be conscious of attendance and understand peopleÕs food preferences. IÕm referring to board or panel meetings here. The risks are higher when it comes to a general meeting, movie premiere, new product, stakeholders gathering, product specifications day, or any other type of event. You may have hundreds of meal selections, although if your visitor is not able to consume meat owing to religious restrictions, they will be limited to veggie dishes. When your attendees are Hindu or Muslim, halal catering is a great option because it provides a wide variety of culinary options.

Halal near me for any event is ideal for catering to Muslim religious customers. If youÕre throwing a pool party, a Halal food would be ideal for your Muslim visitors. IÕve seen a halal section of food stations serving exclusively halal foods with the assurance halal certificate shown at several corporate gatherings. This halal nook is incredibly beneficial and entertaining, and it pleases customers, colleagues, and guests together. Muslim religion guests would feel welcomed and included in the event, knowing they can eat practically anything on the table and appreciate it just as much as everyone else.

Even though many people enjoy Indian curries and rice, sambar, biryani, chicken curry with bread, samosa with curry sauce, & pakora with yoghurt, chutney, and papadum, most corporate or commercial events handled by Muslim restaurants are no longer just for Muslim visitors. These are now so common at corporate parties that they will frequently transform the occasion into such an Indian themed party, with waiters wearing traditional attire and the decor updated at no extra cost.

When youÕre going to a corporate gathering, donÕt bring a sandwich. In fact, you may not require dinner later as youÕll be so full with delicious Halal food Sydney.

Some non-Muslims recognize that Muslims cannot eat pork, but few realise that halal encompasses more than being free of pork and alcohol. Any animal that has not been slain in the name of Allah, with the possible exception of shellfish, is not halal. When chickens, cattle, calves, or turkeys are not killed as per Islamic requirements, they are considered non-halal. According to Islamic standards, animals must be slain by making cuts at the front their throats with very sharp knives. To remove all of the blood in the body, deep incisions must be made into the jugular vein, wind pipe, and subclavian artery.

With the increasing demand for Halal food Bankstown, more butchers are becoming certified. Only certified Halal square butcheries should supply meat to Halal restaurants. Food preparation, in addition to obtaining meat from Halal sources, is critical in establishing whether or not a food can be designated as halal.

National Filet Mignon Day

National Filet Mignon Day is on August 13 — an occasion that celebrates the creation of the delicious filet mignon. The steak is the epitome of luxury and is in high demand by the rich in every society. This is because the meat of a filet mignon just melts in the mouth and is a pure definition of decadence and magnificence in the world of cooking. Filet mignon is basically made out of tenderloin meat that is one of the most prized cuts of beef. Hence, it’s not a surprise that the dish is so delicious and one of the top favorites in every restaurant.

History of National Filet Mignon Day

Filet mignon is basically meat that is cut from the smaller end of the tenderloin of an animal such as a pig or a cow. While pork tenderloin is famous and is known to tingle one’s taste buds, several religions forbid pork meat and the followers instead opt for filet mignons made from beef. However, each meat version has a taste of its own and it is recommended that every foodie try both.

The history of filet mignons is unclear because the dish has existed and been served in the U.S. since before the 18th century, and was also one of the most popular items on the menu. The only difference is, they were known as medallions or tenderloin steak since the term filet mignon was not coined until 1906. The word ‘steak’ on the other hand, was first used in mid-15th century Scandinavia and became popular in Florence, Italy. Whereas, the name ‘filet mignon’ was first used in William Sydney Porter’s book “The Four Million,” and was marketed as an expensive and luxurious meat cut that the poor could not afford. Building the image of the dish as one that was out of the reach of the masses only increased its popularity, and it soon became the most wanted item on the dinner table of the wealthy and the royals. While the dish is consumed today by millions of individuals yearly and is no longer ‘unaffordable,’ it is still an undercut that is pricier than the usual meat items.
