A LINK to an article about the artist.
She goes by what is apparently a pseudonym Nouar (sometimes Noir Nouar). Her specialty is bizarre food artistry.
Note all the insects, and the mouse.
If she gives her pictures titles, they’re beyond my search powers.
08:22 hrs. E.D.T. It kept bugging me so I went to Google Translate.
In Romanian, at least, “nouar” is “nine.”
A version of Joan Baez singing Joe Hill at Woodstock that works in Canada.
I get the impression from Wikipedia’s article on him he wasn’t that likeable.
My 1963 World Book Encyclopedia doesn’t have a listing for him at all.
I’ve never read that insinuation… but I’m sure he wasn’t trying to be “nice”.
He was an itinerant laborer and labor organizer, at the turn of the 20th century, when miners and other low paid workers were very badly used and treated….
a prominent “Wobbly” (member of the IWW, the Industrial Workers of the World), and a speaker for them, a writer of union songs…
who faced discrimination and was forced into poverty for his politics, and was eventually executed as an example, for a crime he didn’t commit.
In other words, he was a scrapper and a fighter, which doesn’t always make for a nice guy.

Well I’ll be a monkey’s uncle. I think I’ve found all nine, and in only a few minutes.

Tonight’s 9 includes a part of the topography that is rarely visited in these puzzles.
The title of the puzzle doesn’t fit – common error.
That cooking device is called teppan.
We own an electric one, that’s why I did my research a while ago. Very handy when outdoor BBQs and gatherings were banned due to the pandemic.
Benihana, with the flailing knives and scary fire, was the first Japanese restaurant to make inroads in America. Of course every Japanese cook said it was not authentic, but it was a start. Now we have lots of authentic Japanese restaurants and Benihana is no longer required.
I cannot explain why, but today I remembered the word “teppanyaki” Most of the time, that word eludes me so I call them hibachi tables because most people know what I mean. No need to wait for failing memories around here.
thanks, everyone!
Suzy Cuteface of WTFTV, eh? Not to be confused with Suzy Q, sports reporter for KPED.
Perro™ is right!
(And anyway, if he’s ever wrong, who’s gonna tell him?)
But this time, his hound senses have totally grabbed the scent…
The top part IS self-deprecating mierda!
….
Of course we enjoy Cleo…. would we be here otherwise?
Would I write all this … um… stuff… if I didn’t? (Avoiding the temptation to use Perro™’s word)
…
Anyhow… Why isn’t this the Sunday strip, instead of being posted in the forum??
wow! i guess we’re being told ”he loves us”!!!

Not black and white much longer.

ewwww!
I’ll have breakfast elsewhere, thank you!!
A really well done optical illusion.
The Blue Jays are losing 12 nothing to the Angels in the middle of the ninth. Blue Jays to bat.
OH!
Took me a while!
took me a lot longer!
Me, too…!
Pretty clever!! Took me awhile, too.

The topography?
I’ve got 7. I’ll try again in the morning.
Whoo hoo… here I am, Cleo pals!
Bringing a solution for today’s puzzle…. but I can tell you, it won’t make that burnt “dinner” taste any better.
…
I think I’ve said before, what I think about dogs making food for me…
basically… no.
I’ve seen what they’re willing, even eager, to eat… and I literally want no part of it.
….
And even were I certain the ingredients were entirely palatable…
They not only walk on those paws… but who knows where else they’ve been.
On top of that…. they’re letting her swing knives???
….
Meanwhile, let’s solve the differences dilemma…
After you’ve tracked down as many as you can….
Take a look at my solution …
If you peek before you try… you get a prize!
Cleo will be over to make you dinner.
Bringing her choice of ingredients and a dozen sharp knives.
Got them!
I’m pretty sure all that acting, the fire and the knives are just a decoy from Cleo having already eaten all the good stuff sashimi-style.
nope! only got 6!!! harrumph!
I got all nine ~ and honestly, I did not peek before trying. Please don’t send Cleo.
Got ’em! even the microscopic ones!

Even Japanese restaurants that I’ve been to here have called the teppan tables “hibachi tables”, presumably due to the common misconception…
I think in the popular mind, they’re now the same thing, even though they’re actually not alike.
I gave up.
I hear you. But nighthawks is pretty open-minded.
Plus we have a living to learn audience here.

looks like me!
You feel our pain.
A slight variation on an oldie but goodie brought over from today’s “The Comic Strip….”
“wheelbarrows” is the version I know.

I just had to bring this over from today’s “Ripley’s….” The reference to male elephant anatomy is quite polite.
The punchline is hilarious.
Teabagging.
