Black Bean Prawn Stuffed Egg Plant.

Black Bean Prawn Stuffed Egg Plant. This is one of my favourite dim-sum items that sure hits all the right flavour notes. Very light and satisfying. The Asian tube eggplants are mush sweeter and very digestable. Give this a try.       The wild caught prawns at the Steveston Pier are fresh head on and alive.

Grilled Albacore Tuna Soft Street Burrit...

Grilled Albacore Tuna Soft Street Burrito.             I like using soft taco/burrito shells. There are several to choose from. I find that the authentic Mexican soft tacos best.

I season mine with sea salt pepper hot sauce and olive oil. I add some fresh chopped cilantro, minced garlic and a dash of smoked paprika with a squeeze of lime juice....
