with a strawberry pulp and a bit of balsamic from (of course) Modena, the “Zen” dark bonbon filled with green tea, and the “Passion Fruit” yet another bonbon which fills your mouth with a delightful...

Another thought. As PT Barnum put it, “there is a sucker born every minute.” Best imagery for me when I see “simple food” morphed into something chic:) My momma and her siblings brought there Mississippi...

Ugh. I liked Marcel’s risks throughout the show, but Ilan held it together tonight. Though I’d have rather eaten Marcel’s meal (provided I did not know Mike had touched my food at some point). Ohhhhhh, the...

. They do have good falafel and grape leaves, and their toasted feta app is quite tasty. It’s a nicer venue than their location at Lake and Lyndale. A few blocks from Bloomington on Portland just south of 494 are a couple of...

on the Green or the Russian Tea Room, but I’m sure that they are all hype, and not worth the bother.) Additionally, what’s a good place to eat before a Broadway show? What’s the usual way to do it – dinner...

in the fridge...Blanched brocolli, sliced radishes, steamed green beans, all in as many different flavors of vinaigrette or marinade as i can think of. The current fave is a Korean marinade that’s 1 teaspoon sesame oil, one...

for example will show up in winter as brandied peaches for dessert or pickled peaches alongside meats. None of them come from Chile. My green beans in summer are lightly steamed but in winter are long-cooked as they would have...

Dolores, I like that you added the point about groceries. I once had an issue with someone ordering macadamia encrusted tilapia with green beans for $19. I explained that the tilapia filet itself cost about $2. The greenbeans...

on a potato and spinach base bound together with a herb-tinged green olive oil, as shown below. While it looked fantastic, the crusty prawns were too dry and cottony. They did have a nice sweet flavor, but the texture turned me...

I am still very low income, so I’m always discovering new and fascinating ways of saving money. Twenty-pound bags of rice are sold in Chinatown. Green beans in Chinatown are, on a good day, 50 cents a pound. The chili sauces...

my grapes in the yard, growing just a hundred yards form the hickory tree. I was feeling TOTALLY the slow-food, seasonal, local, organic, macrobiotic, Alice-Waters-channeling, domestic genious. Well...it took me TWO evenings...

I’ve always liked cheap grape jelly more than the name brands (same with apple jelly). I also prefer the generic cottage cheese (full-fat, large curd) over all others, with exception to Nancy’s organic.

's nothing wrong with ‘supplementing’ when you just don’t feel like cooking... I also like the idea of just having hors d’oeuvres – some chilled jumbo shrimp, a wedge of brie, bread & some grapes....
