Pork roast was yum. Tonight walked to the supermarket and bought some mushrooms and took 2 pieces of steak out of the freezer to thaw.
Some people like pepper sauce, some garlic, some mushroom. I just mash em all together and it's yum.

Looks good
I bumped into this recently, haven't used it yet.

It's not menulog or Uber Eats, this is the equivalent of going out to a flash joint, just at home.
Several schmick restaurants, you get the food delivered with instructions for you to cook/reheat at home.
Not cheap, this is special occasion stuff to me, might give it a go shortly though just for a change

i cooked roast beef, roast potato, sweet potato, and steamed vegies. i did a heap of potatoes, cos everyone loves my roast spuds, I ate one (ok i picked the best one, but it wasnt very big) so since i walked 10 klm with a girlfriend today, then did the shopping and cleaned downstairs, i figured i could go a second - gone, allllll gone. all of them. gone.

We haven't tried Providoor, but tonight is our anniversary. We are in the SE suburbs and usually dine at MPD Steak Kitchen. They have just delivered us a similar heat and eat meal package. We are having popcorn chicken with chilli mayo and beef croquettes with harissa sauce as a shared entree, beef bourgignon with truffle mash and baby beans for the main and hazelnute creme brulee for dessert.
The entire meal only came to $80, which is quite reasonable, including delivery.
Now to hope it tastes as good as it sounds.

Meanwhile, back at the Cafe Tannin, last night we tried something new: roast chicken and cauliflower, Italian style.
Mix tomato paste, mustard, crushed garlic, olive oil, oregano, rosemary, black pepper, and grated Parmesan to form a paste. Coat your cauliflower florets generously, and set them on a roasting tray. Pile any leftover paste on it too.
Coat chicken pieces with olive oil and a mix of herbs: marjoram, garlic, basil and whatever else seems like a good idea at the time.
Roast, then sprinkle more Parmesan over everything before serving with greens of your choice.
Yum!
Not much I'd change, but maybe stuff the chicken breasts with something smooth and cool and creamy - sour cream and lemon might work, have to try it. Or wrapping it in bacon, of course, and hang the cholesterol.

Well reporting back on our delivered restaurant meal, it was really good. The starters, croquettes and popcorn chicken, suffered very slightly from being reheated, but the bourgignon was amazing. Rather than being diced meat, which I expected, it was a two large pieces of delectably tender meat, possibly a beef cheek or something, but whatever it was was fantastic.
And we certainly did have a couple of bottles of good red to wash it all down. Thanks for the good wishes.
Tannin, your chicken dish sounds amazing, will have to try it. I would probably use thighs rather than breasts though. I find that they are far moister after oven cooking.
