Finalized menu for... Monday?

Braised Pork Belly w/ Pickled Mustard
Citrus-marinated Salmon w/ Pea Shoot Coulis
Ong Choy in preserved tofu/garlic sauce
Steamed Rice
Mango-Pomelo Tapioca

Mangoes aren't in season, so the dessert soup tastes a little sour when it's supposed to be my sweet dish.

Hopefully the pork belly will be fine once it's steamed and glazed w/ the sauce collected from its braising.

The pea shoot coulis has a very intense, deep green color. The individual components from Thomas Keller's dishes amaze me. So much work going into each piece. It's too strangely familiar to a research publication.

Well, will see if Kaiser approves of this meal. Didn't have time to actually cook for her last week with the schedule being pushed back each day.
