Chicken Caesar Salad
Thursday, April 30, 2009
I’ve always loved Caesar Salad but I haven’t ordered it in restaurants for years. Often, it ends up tasting like a heavy gloppy ranch or just creamy parmesan dressing. Caesar dressing should have anchovies in it yet often, it seems like it’s been left out.
The craving hit before lunch yesterday so I asked Lon to […]
Daydream
Wednesday, April 29, 2009
This frozen yogurt fad has some confused, with the more recent ones tasting more tangy like yogurt, while old-school frozen yogurt tasted more like ice cream. Amongst friends the votes are divided as to which they prefer, so it seems like a good idea for Daydream Daydream to offer both, Original-Creamy and Original-Icy. Lon prefers […]
Greenbox Pizza
Wednesday, April 29, 2009
This is an incredibly well designed pizza box concept, that according to the video, is now patented. Environmentally Conscious Organization, Inc. (ECO), right out of our hometown, NYC has created a normal-sized pizza box made out of 100% recycled materials. But who cares about that… 🙂

Summer Croutons

The review […]

Top Chef 6: Las Vegas!
Monday, April 27, 2009
The rumors have been confirmed by Kate Aurthur of the LA Times (via Yumsugar), that the next season will be shot in Las Vegas. Filming begins next week.
In my mind, Vegas is a great place for the show, seeing as how it is THE Mecca of celebrity chefs looking to extend their culinary reach. I’m […]
Stogo
Sunday, April 26, 2009
Last night, we were walking home when we saw Stogo Stogo. Lon and I walk into just about any new food place we see, so in we went to sample what they call Gourmet Organic Dairy-Free Ice Cream. I was hoping it would be good since Lon is lactose intolerant, but after we each tried […]
