Well, you sure won’t hear any of that crap from me! I love Tex-Mex, I adore Tex-Mex. It was the first variety of ANY Mexican I ever tasted that really had flair and flavor (aside from some damn good tamales we used to buy...

Tartine was awesome last time we were there. The only problem was that it was packed, there were 8 of us, it was too cold to eat outside, so we ended up wandering the streets until we found 2 coffeehouses where we could buy...

competition here in town, at least that I’ve tried. Don’t go buy a $7 supper and expect Fonda San Miguel, unless you’re at Polvos, which is my current favorite restaurant in Travis County, but it ain’t...

Roast Pork Egg Foo Yung is something I discovered later in life and it’s my new favorite Chinese dish. It’s basically an omelet filled with onions and roast pork (or whatever other kind of meat you want) and served...

, such as the rice paper for bahn wraps, can only be held at that “unsafe ” inbetween temp, otherwise they are ruined. And so some of the temp guidlelines have been adjusted. But meats and dairy, really do need to be...

-friendly, and the only other SB was ‘04 Casa Lapastolle, Rapel Valley Sauvignon Blanc. Now, I have to confess that I am not a fan of Chilean wines, only having encountered one, that I would buy. I have also attended three wine...

thread (go ahead, anyone...on the appropriate message board, or on General Topics if talking generally). This is a major problem on a serious barbecue trek because, of course, it’s all meat. Also the smoke and grease are...

meatballs which I tend to avoid tasted like they were home made and their tripe was cut into small portions. I ate most of the meat and only 1/3 of the noodles. Couldn’t stomach the salty broth. The other dish my partner...

dined there the waiter opened the wine shop for us to select some wines. We trust his judgement so much we buy pricey bottles of Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris without even tasting them. We have been very pleased with everything they...

panini. veritas...upscale but comfortable...no suit. stick with meats...his foie gras is my favorite. telepan...you can go to dinner but lunch here is too stupidly cheap to ignore. get the smoked trout on potato cake and his lamb...

Moo’s suggestion on the market beforehand is a very good one. Also if you don’t want to get a hot sandwich you can always shop around and make a picnic with a selection of cheeses, meats, fruits & breads. If you go...

://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/769690.stm The restaurant I had this at is extremely ethical serving organic meat and wild fish. I might just take the suggestion of one organization and write a letter to the owner about the foie gras....

That whole unhygenic thing was weird—I don’t remember that ever coming up in previous seasons, although there’s been lots of carting around raw meat to picnics and such. Seems like if editors wanted to focus on...

I’m with you on that one, I love the Panang curry. My family gets it almost everytime, then we fight about the meat choice, chicken or pork..

of grilled meat and wonderful rice. I like Seoul Garden at Japantown. Brothers (on Geary around 2nd) is less pretty but just as good. If they’re feeling adventurous, Burma Super Star (Clement & 1st) is always delicious....
