guys, this isn't the Question Game thread
No, it's not a wok. Does it look like a wok?
It's just a small frying pan. If I had been making enough for my whole family instead of just myself, I likely would have used a wok

real Chinese wok cooking is a fiery explosion of smoke, noise and chaos, it's the only way to get those deep flavors, the 'Dragon's breath' ..and the wok must be used and seasoned, covered in a nice black layer of char

Are you insane?  It actually does look kind of like a small wok. There's this Asian restaurant cookware store called Tongnan Fa or as we like to refer to it, Tongue On Fire, that I pass by to and from work. I didn't know they made woks that big. They have a huge variety of sizes and types.  By the way, I have an old hand hammered and well seasoned and well used wok. Sadly now sitting unused in storage as I no longer have access to a gas stove.

Eh, it's just the top-view picture then. In person it's very evidently a small flat-bottomed frying pan
I've never actually seen a small wok, mine is enormous

 it could be a very shallow saucepan.
I bought a small (8") wok for use while camping- it's pretty neat and does a mean stir-fry for two.
I love the monster woks they have at festivals, they've got to be 6 feet in diamenter - the food's nothing special though.

Artichokes; in season here in California, huge and flavorful. I go back&forth between steaming them and boiling-- steam tonight and though it came out well, I think boiling may cook them more evenly. I added olive oil and some salt to the steam water, ate with mayo on the side.
one of my favorite artichoke recipes [artichokes should have tight, closed leaves toward top and a bright green color] :
- Carefully chop off leaves, choke, and stem of 1 large artichoke, cut remaining heart into 1 by 1/2 inch pieces and fry in a hot pan with olive oil, salt&pepper till tender (usually just a few minutes). Add some cut-up sausage (Hungarian or Cajun is nice), 1 small ripe tomato chopped, and a shot of white wine or lemon juice. Simmer for a few more moments and serve over pasta.

Nothing fancy today here at Chez EDub. Getting ready to come up with a marinade for some ribeyes. Grill those beotches up along with twice baked taters and maybe some grilled veggies.
I couldn't live without my grill.

I suspect it's that he picked his radishes yesterday, but I could be wrong.
