applicant dinner party

We’re hosting the mdphd applicants and some current students for dinner Monday. Previously Scott has ordered good-but-not-great nearby Thai takeout; this time, I volunteered to cook for the lot of us. And check out South Loop Wine Cellar.

• Bittman braised short ribs (both beef and pork)
• Turnip purée
• Patatas en salsa verde
• Roasted brussels sprouts
• A lentil or split-pea soup? Maybe veg chili with lentils?
• Vanilla-chocolate bread
