with an unrelenting obsession centered around obscure candy bars. My question is, where can I find such regional rarities as the Clark Bar, the Valomilk, the Twin Bing, and the Idaho Spud? Will I have to order them? Or is there a...

Help! I’m trying to find Redhaven or other Michigan peaches in the Twin Cities and have had NO luck. My mother and I planned a road trip to north of Benton Harbor (contact me for details) to pick our own, but a hospital...

out about the quality of the cherries this year. But the cherries at the regular farmers markets have been really bad with lots of splits and double cherries (think siamese-twin cherries). They don’t last long either....

Botta Bing on Reynolda Road

I went to Barolo up near Twin Peaks last night. There were some usually fatal flaws, but there were some very good items. I really liked that there were some creative and different touches. Who has tried it? What did you like?...

thanks for sharing, Dayote! i’m sorry i don’t have any to add, but i would like to second your call for others' recommendations: i have 4-year-old twins and would love to take them out to see fruit, you know, GROWING....

, or the meat is so dry or tough that you’d rather eat a beef jerky. But not at ASJ, they have perfected all three components and brings them together like no other places. I can say it even usurps its former twin of A&J in...

LOL. Hey, thanks for the heads up on the Twin Marquis wrappers. I used them to make gyozas yesterday. Awesome, nice and light and crisy. I used to use Twin Dragon but definitely like the Marquis better.

Great thread. I’m in grad school at FIU now so 9/10+ meals are down here now, although i’m from the N Miami / MB area. On this side of town, when i have the time i like Roasters n Toasters for breakfast or deli...

My wife and two toddler twins just moved here from Seattle. We know NOTHING about the LA area, but love to eat out. We need help! We would love restaurant suggestions for the area, particularly ones in or near to Woodland Hills....
