the original Poilane shop. Camera in hand, with three back up rolls of film, I went to the top of the mountain, what an experience. I hung around, asked questions, bought, tasted, asked more questions, until finally they asked if...

I have to say that I do not care for Trader Joe’s (admittedly based on only one trip there). The produce is in pre-packaged trays, so I had to buy two (or was it four?) green peppers when I only wanted one. And the frozen...

I agree wholeheartedly on Oleana, nothing special flavor-wise, sky high prices. My entree was $20 for four small pork meatballs in a runny green sauce. My DC had salmon – which was overcooked and had bland sides (Red...

green edges on the pork chops. Seafood departments smell. They do, however, have an extremely reasonably priced house brand of cat litter. That’s the only reason I go into one now.

. Thought about stainless, butcher block, concrete, formica, soapstone, tile and ended up with granite which, while I fear it will become the dated avocado green of the 00s, is easy to clean, durable and I can roll dough out...

Terroir is located on School Street in Acton and they hold the (bimonthly?) open houses there. You get to see the facility (the roaster, the new packaging techniques for green beans, etc). George gives a lecture on coffee, recent...

As someone who used to live in Southern California and who used to visit family in Taiwan, I can firmly say that chinese food in Seattle is actually pretty good, and compares favorably with LA or San Francisco. While I...

is so kitschy (green pepper steak, beef broccoli, etc). I also adore the Spanish translations (aves, pollo etc). A pink take-out menu which Gary has posted a picture of. I never got a good look at it but the descriptions in...
