, but not particularly special. I’d save it for a night when you’re too tired to go out to eat. Have an omlette with house red wine. It’s solid comfort food. The roast chicken is pretty good too, as are...

"special" cake. “Fancy European” cakes are frowned upon. We want something American here. - must go with white vanilla frosting (buttercream-meringue in all likelihood; BTW feel free to toss in a recipe for that too if...

, it is worth a special drive to anyone living in the SD area. Post because the sheer quirkiness of it finally gets to people. If you have a passion about a place or food, repeat it. Someone on the board in SF had a passion for a...

ice cream and “emergency” frozen meals delivered to my door. He still delivers somewhere around here because I see his truck.

because I cook by intuition and inspiration, even though I must have at least a dozen Chinese cook books. And too bad for me (usually) if I ever want the exact dish again, because if I don’t write it down before finishing...

When did you see this? I just googled this and found nothing about Mitchell’s closing up. This is the Mitchell’s in Wilson, NC, right? We were there just after Thanksgiving and not only did we have a great meal but...

If it’s buns you want, and you’re on 40th Rd, you might want to check out Go Bou Li for their steamed buns. They are some of the best I’ve had in NYC, and that’s what they specialize in. Check out the link...

they specialize in beef and lamb noodle dishes. Red sign with white characters. 4. Islamic: Across from the Guizhou stall, it is the very last stall on the left of the first long corridor when you enter the building. This place...

Dynasty is on Bloor, but in the Colonnade, not in the Manulife.It is not comparable in any way to Lai Wah Heen, which is a short cab ride away. It is just a decent chinese restuarant- no more no less. Nothing special. I would pass...

I always take along an oil cloth tablecloth to use on funky picnic tables. Easy to wipe down and fold up, doesn’t take up much space, makes even a rest area snack of crackers and cheese seem more like a meal. I also take a...

conveyed to us the restaurant’s ridiculous reservation policy. We were eventually sat within 20 minutes (probably because of the stink that we all raised) and ended up having a decent meal in the end. I want to hear from...

meats are added and this is how you get duckfried rice, crab fried rice, pork etc. The rice is a strong flavored dish there and stands on its own – in can be a whole meal, and it doesn’t always mesh with other dishes...
