mcgriddles, and the hamburger happy meals. When I was pregnant and puking my guts out, that was one of the few things I was able to both desire and keep down, that had some calories. And to think one of my friends shamed me about...

My new year’s resolution was to cut out trans fat and I’ve been told I look better. I don’t know about actual weight because I don’t weigh myself, but it seems like the fat is going better places, away...

anzu – you’re in SF or LA right? On the EC we sadly just don’t have many easy to find mid-range places outside of NYC proper. here seems to be event, account or dump. and that’s what I truly miss about SF....

True. However, I think the Po Boy is unique in that it uses mainly hot ingredients like breaded oysters and shrimp, or roast beef with gravy (and a very unique set of dressings). Damn, I want one now! Most of the heroes, subs,...

predicts these are the two final contenders. Nice job to both. Hung – the boy can cook. Hung did the right thing by asking question in the kitchen about how the original is prepared. Kudos for guts, and it paid off for him. Jfood...

cool with all of them. I am impressed with them as people this episode. In hindsight I think the comments on Andrew’s dish was pretty insightful. Getting the kids to like fennel? That took as much guts as serving beets.

last season Tom gutted a constestant because she made coq au vin with a chicken instead of a coq, literally translated as a rooster. He was over the top obnoxious about it to cause many to think the only old coq was at the judges...

Good questions. I think there is a real differ=ence between being a cook and just following recipes. If I just want to follow a recipe, I find myself working from cooks Illustrated or the NYT cookbook. Wen i want to cook better,...

love this thread, now here’s the kicker you and hubby need to figure out. When you get to the RD the waiter will approach the two of you (and others at the table) and ask “did you order the fish, chicken or...

a lovely frozen chocolate mousse and a perfect cognac-infused creme brulée. Batifole has certainly figured out Summerlicious...the amount of food for $25 was staggering, I had to drink a mint tea to settle my gut down when I got...

a passion for region and its foods, not because it’s a hot place to make money.

for that area was fresh on my mind. It is true that Andersonville is not perfect. There’s no good new or used bookstore, no upscale grocery store, no good Italian deli, no good hot dog stand, no good taqueria, no really good...
