For those of you that don't know, my mom parental is an excellent chef. Over the years, she's acquired a unique knack for making delicious meals that aren't overly heavy, but perfectly filling. This weekend at the parents' place was no exception: a traditional Korean dinner featuring galbi perfectly cooked and a breakfast/lunch featuring a tri-cheese quiche-like creation c/w a balsamic vinegar dressed southwestern-style bean salad.

However, the best part of my mom's cooking/going home is taking back food. Coming home and having a reheatable, "dare I say gourmet" meal after the usual 8 hour routine is such bliss.
