I’ve been missing the food from the Slummin’ Gourmet and since they rarely come to the South Bay, I had to trek out to NoHo.  The NoHo team coordinates a fine event.  They operate on a private parking lot and usually have a live band to provide the entertainment.  Tonight, they had two local bands performing and everyone seemed to have enjoyed the music.

I had Slummin’s special of the day – grilled salmon tacos with a red Thai curry sauce.  It was topped with mint cucumber slaw and chopped peanuts.  Flavors worked very well, but it was very difficult holding the taco w/o the insides falling out.  The Cali Diver scallop slider was amazing.  It was moist and grilled to perfection.

I topped everything off with their famous banana bread pudding.  What is unique about their pudding is that it has a nice crisp outside and it’s topped with vanilla ice cream and surrounded by slices of caramelized bananas.  Wow!
