portobello mushrooms and eggplant. The result was good, but didn’t have the punch I was looking for. I have at least one vegetarian in the group and I would like to serve a very memorable lasagna that all will appreciate....

. It was sort of chewy and only moderately sweet, and had none of the punch and perfume I remember. Maybe age has worked its devilry on my taste buds and the wonderful melon of my youth is lost forever, but I hope not. So, where...

'd also highly recommend picking up a canister of Dagoba’s drinking chocolate, a blend of cocoa and chocolate. It comes sweetened or unsweetened, and in the knock-out Xocolatl variety – cinnamon and chiles. The heat...

a new menu that looks interesting and a movie prix fixe (think it’s $20 per person). If you’re looking for romantic ambiance, the room is a knockout with huge windows and lots of twinkling lights.

The pathetic truth is that the US purchases account for a whopping 2% of roquefort production, so this is hardly a knockout punch. I’m sure that Spain will gladly buy up any surplus.

was outstanding. We also ordered veggie side dishes. I think that we could have easily done without them. They lacked punch. One of the sides we ordered was the Spaghetti Squash, Chiles, Mint and Bottarga. You’d think with...

it comes to pulling a knockout shot. If Freida’s around (co-owner), which she usually is, you have to get a shot from her. She’s amazing! And perfectly consistent. What kills it for me is really their great service....

of or potential to make a knockout, “whoaa” dish with these kind of items than something normal and well, commonplace.

to Porta Bella – won’t be going back unless someone recommends a knockout dish there. Good atmosphere, but the sauces, red and white, were lacking.

) the prices are good. The beef shoulder was very good, intense beefy flavor, moist, and the right amount of smoke. The moist brisket (I love how the opposite of lean is “moist”) was an absolute knockout. I’ve...

just did a boars head blazin buffalo chicken panini with one side frontera’s cilantro salso and the other side desert pepper cheese sauce. yum. but if you want to go all out and make a knockout - Grilled Honey Lime Chicken...
