Two weeks ago I made the Orange Peel Beef, By Way of Sichuan and Old New York recipe in J. Kenji Lopez-Alt’s The Wok.

It was tasty, but could have been tastier with more sauce and less crunch. 3 stars ★★★☆☆

Fourth coffeeneuring ride was with my daughter. She chose a Starbucks that’s not too far for her. I had a black coffee and she got a pumpkin spice creme frappuccino that she ended up not liking. She was a champ on the bicycle.
