L’Orangerie’s “foie gras creme brulee” is at the top of the “scariest foods I have ever eaten” list. Their amuse bouche was some kind of foam. Then as soon as someone “important”...

is “dissolved” in butter, then add V-8. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally until beginning to boil. Add baking soda and stir until foam subsides. Add milk and cream, and heat through. Add garlic & celery...

behemoth, and I can’t tell you how many Park Slope yuppies are foaming at the mouth for this place to open. This, despite the fact that we in Brooklyn are blessed with butchers, bakers, delis, etc. that are locally owned...

the water with it’s nasty foam and impurities and then add 10 cups water and 1 cup of uncooked white rice. Add a thousand-year egg (cut into 8ths) and bring to a boil. Simmer for 2 hours or more, until the congee is thick...

for 85 people, and the place was very busy saturday night! good hawaiian music in the background, lots of smiling faces. Happy families sharing from the foam cartons.. The service was lightning fast n friendly. the portions...

. A chocolate pave was pedestrian and the Peach Melba was one of the worst desserts in recent memory. It tasted and looked like foam rubber studded with fruit. A “surprise” off-menu dessert, “donuts and coffee”, was...

I know, I was thinking of that smoker too. Richard’s smoker is the Marcel’s foam of Season 4...You’d think he wouldn’t want to use the same thing every episode because you know he’s gonna get burned...

, Mastro’s – yes I would put them in the same group), but then Des Moines has good steakhouses, too. Providence and Bistro K are for the innovation for its own sake and foam lovers. Spago is probably the most reliably...
