OCEllen posts below shows, “false morels” look almost nothing like the real thing. Glad it was great! We found one in our front yard this spring, and split it down the center, coated it with cornmeal and fried it for...

Brandon, what was the issue with your strawberries and what type were they? My garden is in Los Angeles and I’ve got the following outside right now: Alpine Strawberries Russian purple plum tomatoes Dr. Carolyn tomatoes...

Returning to the (suburban) land in Boulder.

Dear Chowhounds, Had a great meal at Yungui Garden last night, 301 N. Garfield Ave., Monterey Park south of the 10. It’s a well known destination but the name has changed so often I thought it was worth a repost. Plus we...

I have a yard (and gardengarden</b> will be a winter one. What do you plant in yours? I'm in the SF Bay Area if that makes any difference. Thank you"/>

Short review of Oriental Garden. 14 Elizabeth Street. Sunday night. Dishes were peashoot and shrimp dumpling, boiled shrimp with soy sauce, fresh scallops and tofu with crab meat. The dumplings are good and a cut above average. I...

Finally tried Garden at the Cellar last night. In general, we were favorably impressed. Tried the truffled white bean puree and cod cakes for apps – the puree was wonderful, and we got what seemed to be a huge portion fo...

Thanks to all who responded to my call for a bookclub-appropriate venue. We ended up at King’s Garden for the Peking Duck dinner. Not my first choice for Chinese food (I have several favourites in Markham/Richmond Hill),...

Lin’s Garden popped up in my memory and a Google search found several posts from last year. I am reviving this thread to ask if anyone who had frequented Lin’s Garden all those many years ago had ever had their unique...

Garden of Eden is pretty awesome when it comes to produce and breads – and there are more of them than Whole Foods. But the way they treat their employees is dubious. I stopped going there a while back when I learned that...

another. It seems that EG has added some benches lining the walk to the Garden. They need to expand that 10 minute parking zone until the EG closes, though. After 7, with Cesar and Chez Panisse next door, there’s no quick...

of living so far from the Motherlode. Yunnan Garden (formerly Hua’s Garden) at 301 N. Garfield Ave., Monterey Park south of the 10, is not a chow discovery per se, having been touted as perhaps the best Yunnan-plus-Sichuan...

I’d like to start a bigger vegetable garden but because our house backs on to a natural area we have voles and richardson ground squirrels (aka Prairie Gophers) that have taken up residence in the yard. Last summer I had...

in the front yard of the KFG. It’s close to the entrance to the Mass. Pike and the S.E. Xway. As an aside -when you walk around Chinatown there are several travel agencies offering day trips to NYC (for example) for $15 one...
