Momofuku Bo Ssäm Meat Feast

Do you want to feast on a huge delicious pork butt slow cooked until the meat is falling off the bone? How about wrapping it in crispy lettuce leaves with tangy homemade Asian sauces. Just to sweeten the deal, why not have some succulent oysters?

The brainchild of heralded chef David Chang, the Momofuku Bo Ssäm Feast is all that for about 20 bucks a head (not including tip, taxes, or drink) for ten people. Please don't RSVP yes unless you know you can make it. If we don't get ten people here, I have plenty of unfortunately non-paleo, but still meat loving friends who can fill in.

At the meetup we can feast to celebrate the new article in the New York Times, but also discuss the paleo diet, future meetups, and meet new people!

If you want to come but not be part of the communal pork and oysters, then let me know. There are no reservations for Ssämbar besides if you are taking part in the pork butt, but you can come and hopefully get in on our table. I can confirm that the rest of the menu is delicious too! My favorite are the Sichaun Beef Tendons!

Please don't plus one unless you contact me first.

Drinks at Grand Central Oyster Bar

Come have a drink at Grand Central Oyster Bar. Easy to get to…right in the middle of Grand Central. We'll be at the bar, which is on the right as you walk in.

We can meet each other, talk about the paleo diet, and discuss future meetups…as well as talk about the New York Times article that just came out.

Feel free to plan on grabbing a bite if you want. They've got some inexpensive counter menu in addition to their main fare. Even if you don't want dinner or a drink, there's always plenty of space, so stop on by.

They close at 9:30, so we'll be there during that window.

Look forward to meeting some more of you!

Northwest Valley Auto Immune Protocol Support Group

I understand that many of you need to take Paleo one step further by including more restrictions. If you are afflicted with an auto-immune disease or have severe food allergies, it may be especially tough to navigate restaurant menus and grocery stores. Let's help each other out! Support each other by offering tips, strategies, and assistance to those who need support with their elimination diets!

Think of this is a healthy hump day happy hour!  Also, the Citadelle Plaza has a very charming farmer's market going on at the same time!  Some suggestions for this group could be discussing AIP books or news articles, swapping AIP-friendly recipes, shopping together and eating lunch together.  You guys set the tone and share what you would like to get out of this!

And by no means is this group restricted to people on the AIP protocol but they are especially welcome and encouraged to attend.  I think we could all learn a little something just by being a fly on the wall! 🙂

Take-out Fake-out!

Anita and Ray love Chinese cooking and had the brilliant idea of transforming the usual takeout fare into Paleo friendly versions! No deep-fried breading and soy sauce drenched disasters for us – we coat our chicken in almond flour (or coconut flour) and drop a dash of coconut aminos in our dishes! The Healthy GF Life and Primal Palate are great websites to find awesome Paleo versions of Chinese restaurant meals to get your motor running. Some suggestions may be cauliflower “fried rice”, beef & broccoli, egg drop soup, chicken “lo mein” with zucchini noodles, etc. Just make sure your dish contains no grains, soy, dairy, legumes, corn, or any other gut irritants. 🙂
