New York on Pause: 3 Meals a Day <Part III>【紐約居家防疫之一日三餐：第三篇】
New York State on Pause: 3 Meals a Day <Part III>
Braised Minced Pork over Vegetable Fried Rice with Fried Egg/ 荷包蛋肉燥蔬菜炒飯
Brunch:
Braised Minced Pork over Vegetable Fried Rice with Fried Egg
Afternoon Tea:
Homemade Chocolate Flourless Walnut Cookie
Iced Coffee with Whipped Cream and Cinnamon
Dinner:
Karaage (Japanese Fried Chicken)
Daikon Salad
Beverage of my Choice:
Kamotsuru Tokusei Gold Daiginjo, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan 🇯🇵
I have been craving fried chicken lately so I asked Chef if we can have it for dinner. He froze for about 10 seconds and then said, “ Okay, how about making karaage (the Japanese fried chicken) and daikon salad for dinner?” Hooray! We have transformed our dinner table to an izakaya tonight.
Kamotsuru Shuzo was founded in 1918. The “Tokusei Gold” is their signature with gold cherry petals in it. A fun fact is that when the former U.S. President Barack Obama met with Shinzo Abe, the Prime Minister of Japan, in April 2014, they enjoyed Kamotsuru sake at a meal together.
This “Tokusei Gold” is round, silky and delicate. Even with a profound aftertaste it is still refreshing. The gold cherry petals are a nice touch to make this sake even more distinctness.

Homemade Chocolate Flourless Walnut Cookie served with Iced Coffee with Whipped Cream and Cinnamon/ 手工無麵粉巧克力核桃餅乾搭配奶蓋冰咖啡
早午餐：
荷包蛋肉燥蔬菜炒飯
早午餐大廚迅速地炒了蔬菜炒飯，煎個蛋，淋上日前滷的肉燥，快速又簡便的早午餐，輕鬆上桌。
下午茶套餐：
手工無麵粉巧克力核桃餅乾
奶蓋冰咖啡
第一次做無麵粉巧克力餅乾，食譜裡使用糖粉的量超乎我的想像。自己偷偷減糖量，已經比食譜減少了三分之一，罪惡感仍如潮水般不停地襲來。只好一直安慰自己說，不然一次吃一片就好了。
晚餐：
日式唐揚炸雞
柴魚白蘿蔔沙拉
餐酒：
賀茂鶴純金箔入大吟釀 🇯🇵
居家防疫期間想吃炸雞，是難事也不是難事。跟大廚叨唸了一番，他當機了10 秒後說，那不然來弄日式唐揚炸雞好了。耶！成功地𢳆到炸雞吃了！
我特地挑了賀茂鶴大吟釀來當餐酒，其質地溫潤雅緻，擁有絲滑柔順的口感又充滿餘韻。瓶中置入了五片小小的櫻花金箔，看來可愛，喝來更顯高貴。
不能上餐館的日子，也唯有轉化心境，才能舒心。不能去居酒屋吃飯飲酒，那就把家裡的餐桌變成居酒屋吧！かんぱい ！
