My baby's first birthday party theme is “Childhood Favorites.” In light of that, the food will be kid-friendly fare. (I thought about making “adult” versions of kid faves, like sausage en croute instead of...

I think we hit upon Moose’s DAT by accident last Saturday. We just decided to drop in for dinner and their chef’s menu looked to be the best deal. Warm broccoli salad with pecorino "snow" Seared white tuna sautéed baby...

Assorted grilled veggies and meats on skewers. It’s super easy, very versatile, healthy, and makes for a great presentation as well as easy eating. Fruit skewers are good as well for a lighter dessert option. My crew also...

Does anyone have ideas for tapas-like foods that incorporate tiny versions of larger foods? ie: baby carrots, mini bagels, etc. thanks in advance!

We were thinking about setting up shop making baby shower cupcakes, until we got to about #45!! Blanket and faces are fondant – I’m not a big fan of the flavor of the fondant so we tried to keep it to a minimum!

. We ordered the grilled octopus with arugula and red onion salad, the mussels with chorizo, capers and white beans, the baby eggplant stuffed with kasseri cheese, the petite osso bucco and the shrimp saganaki. The octopus was...

? She made a stink at Blue Ribbon in Brooklyn and they brought her her own dish of oxtail marmalade. She’s all over anything with flavor (fruit puffs notwithstanding) but I wonder if a baby's digestive system can really...

and pork... My wife’s from Buenos Aires and we go there every coupla years... Chimi baby!! You can serve it in a lil' dish as a condiment which is most common—- but I had insane pork ribs where my father in law baked...
