Can't Trust That Day

Yeah, it's Monday. I'm back at work and not happy about it. A perfectly good reason to indulge myself with lunch at my favorite salad bar, Wildflower Cafe. See, on Monday, when you get to feelin' draggy and blue, what you need is a nice, heaping helping of kim chee. And you can get it at Wildflower: napa cabbage, chili oil, garlic, scallions and just the right amount of salt. Not too spicy, mind you, but with enough of a kick to get you out of your funk.
Sure, there's plenty of other dishes to distract you: slippery Korean glass noodles; roasty little brussels sprouts; soba with spinach; braised tofu; fat glossy chunks of avocado...But be sure you grab some 'chee. You can mop up the good red grease with a chunk of wheat bread which, I'm happy to report, is on the house.
