Multiple people have recommended it. Because we&amp;rsquo;re so close we definitely have to give it a try. Plus my wife didn&amp;rsquo;t want to cook that day. It was her turn to cook which means she&amp;rsquo;s paying :)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 id="starters"&gt;Starters&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Whipped Feta&lt;/em&gt; - Fermented honey, black pepper&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Even though this dish seems so simple it was definitely delicious. I&amp;rsquo;d definitely get it again. I will say I do love how simple this dish was that I might have to try making a version of it at home. The only thing if they served it with something crunchy instead of a soft naan/pita it would have been perfect. Totally, worth.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Charred Shishito Peppers&lt;/em&gt; - Sour Fig Honey, shisho&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Mac &amp; Cheese</title><link>https://justinlespiritu.com/posts/simple-yet-satisfying/mac-and-cheese/</link><pubDate>Wed, 21 Sep 2022 16:29:54 -0500</pubDate><guid>https://justinlespiritu.com/posts/simple-yet-satisfying/mac-and-cheese/</guid><description>&lt;h3 id="intro"&gt;Intro&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My wife always like to have emergency kraft mac &amp;amp; cheese. The only thing is that she always
gets cheep box mac &amp;amp; cheese. We can definitely do better than that, with the same amount of effort, and prob around the same price point (possibly even cheaper).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Sauce Pan/Pot&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sauce Pan/Pot to cook pasta. Just make sure it is large enough to fit the water &amp;amp; pasta with ample space. I use a quart sauce pan.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Skillet/Saute Pan&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Introduction</title><link>https://justinlespiritu.com/posts/simple-yet-satisfying/simple-home-cook-intro/</link><pubDate>Tue, 20 Sep 2022 15:57:43 -0600</pubDate><guid>https://justinlespiritu.com/posts/simple-yet-satisfying/simple-home-cook-intro/</guid><description>&lt;h3 id="why-blog-about-food"&gt;Why blog about food&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cooking food is a huge passion of mine. However, my wife does not share the same passion. Actually, she absolutely hates cooking.
I want to show that cooking can be fun and simple.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I also believe that recipes are more of a guideline than something you absolutely have to follow.
You can be creative with recipes and make them your own.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This blog is aimed at the simple, home cook. I may post some recipes,
but I honestly if you&amp;rsquo;re looking for something that you want to follow to a T you won&amp;rsquo;t really see that on this blog.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>FAQ</title><link>https://justinlespiritu.com/posts/faq/</link><pubDate>Wed, 23 Feb 2022 15:57:43 -0600</pubDate><guid>https://justinlespiritu.com/posts/faq/</guid><description>&lt;h3 id="whats-your-pc-specs"&gt;What&amp;rsquo;s your PC specs&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Currently running a Corsair One a200:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;CPU: R9 5900X&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;GPU: RTX 3080 Ti&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;HDD: 2TB M.2&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Memory: 32 DDR4-3200&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Decided to just get one of these cause of the form factor and cooling. I love building PCs but making one in this small form factor that is fully liquid cooled is a pain.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 id="whats-your-favorite-video-game"&gt;What&amp;rsquo;s your favorite video game&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ha, that&amp;rsquo;s a toss up. Probably between 2 games:
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Sekiro&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Introduction</title><link>https://justinlespiritu.com/posts/introduction/</link><pubDate>Wed, 23 Feb 2022 15:07:00 -0600</pubDate><guid>https://justinlespiritu.com/posts/introduction/</guid><description>&lt;h3 id="welcome-to-my-blog"&gt;Welcome to My Blog&lt;/h3&gt;
