closeness with your love. Lots of stunning places to propose where you’ll be. Nice if you had a chilled bottle of bubbly on hand, if that’s your thing.

. I like drinking Boodles gin martinis with fat pimento olives and a tiny dash of vermouth in super chilled glass with this burger. It’s a frikken awesome experience and makes you glad to be alive. Bison rules.

what turned me on to stefan was when his panna cotta wasn’t chilling and he was like (and i paraphrase) “ you don't panic, you make it work”. and he obviously did. that to me is a top chef. i give him props....

festival food: okonomiyaki, takoyaki, yakisoba, grilled fish on a stick, grilled corn on a stick, etc., as well as a tent with picnic tables where you can get a soft drink, sake or beer to wash down your meal.

layer, the pork chops Next layer, the apples Cover the works in sauerkraut Cook in your crockpot 4-5 hours on high, 8-10 hours on low. I’ve seen variations on the recipe (but never tried them) that call for onions, beer,...

But not going out on the 14th is a good thing! We often will go out on the 15th. less crowds, more attention, the staff are much more chill! Some of our fondest memories are of great meals the day after Valentine’s Day.

At a recent lunch, we ordered gazpacho and received chilled cream of tomato soup. I ordered Salad Nicoise and got greens drowned in olive oil, studded with olives, and topped with a scoop of tuna salad. Honestly, I quit reading...

great food though probably not as great as CP, but also has a bit of a hip vibe (not too much of one) and has terrific tails. (CP is beer and wine only). A tough choice, but I am guessing since you apparently don’t have a...

is chilled just enough to bring on a crisp sensation on the tongue. The slices of clam are thinner than sliced bacon, yet substantial enough to give a snappy and satisfying crunch (think mirugai but better). Each slice is fresh...

. spike is his annoying sidekick. i like that the losing red team was drinking & goofing off before the challenge was won. they had just enough beers in them to trigger those dumb clueless comments in front of the judges. blue...

favorites is a monster BLTA sandwich for dinner, which had the same effect until I found a lower salt bacon. For the former, for which there are no substitute ingredients allowed, I just take the pain and keep a liter of water on...

this experience I realize I’m not a fan of turkey liver. However, the sides were great, and there was nothing wrong with the wine, beer or company.

making cardamom bread...(deep sigh here) Biscuits, fresh-picked raspeberries and grits at my maternal grandmothers (she had grape vines too—fresh picked concord grapes just after the first chill of the fall..ohmy ohmy!!)

oftenthey go. If she is on some form of blood thinners (coumadin comes to mind) she will feel drafts and chills way before anyone else at the table, one of the side effects of the pharma. the trick is to make her comfortable at...

by the glass, the first glass essentially pays for the entire bottle. And before you think this is excessive than you should never order beer or liquor at a bar because the markup is ten times plus.
