You're having grilled cheese for dinner tonight. An ooey, gooey grilled cheese made on a chewy sourdough bread grilled to crunchy perfection, layered with melty sharp cheddar, salty crisp bacon, crisp green apple and a drizzle of sweet maple syrup. Skip right to the recipe. See? I told you. You're having grilled cheese for dinner...Read More

Issued as part of Denizen’s new Wanderer Series, this is a Single Origin Jamaican Rum aged for eight years and finished in Port Casks for three months. Issued at 54% ABV, this new premium rum is a limited edition of four different pot/column still rums and does come with a higher cost than Denizen’s standard rum lineup. The Port Cask is doing some really funky things to this rum, and I didn’t really find it to be particularly representative of a Jamaican rum. The bottle says “single origin” but…

Heard about this eatery, Mad Chefs, from a local account that I follow on IGApparently they serve all sorts of “ethnic” cuisinesIf I’m not mistaken, Japan uses the word “ethnic” to mean South East AsiaAnyway, this restaurant serves Indian curries, and foods like Nasi Goreng as well as pasta with curries on itloved the lamps that they have throughout their interiorChoose from their 7? curries, I

I like hot butter on my breakfast toast. 🍞

In the southernmost state of Brazil, called Rio Grande do Sul, the highlands of the Brazilian plateau give way to the Pampas, the low wide fertile grassland area that it shares with Uruguay and Argentina. It is an area culturally distinct from the rest of Brazil, for much of its history populated only indigenous Guarani people and migratory cattlemen known as Gauchos–the cowboys of South America. We read about the gaucho culture of Rio Grande do Sul a bit previously on the Tribunal, while…

È presto, poco dopo pranzo, e il piccolo bazar è quasi deserto. All'interno, solo il commesso dietro la cassa e qualche cliente che si rifugia sotto l'aria condizionata, passando il tempo prima di poter finalmente andare in spiaggia. I miei occhi corrono sugli scaffali mentre supero le tre piccole sezioni: nell'ordine attrezzatura da spiaggia, giocattoli, merendine industriali. Cosa ci si può aspettare oltre a questo nel negozio oltre la reception di un piccolo campeggio?Nel cartone degli…

We went to Downtown Disney in California, and the Paseo restaurant, to celebrate our wedding anniversary. An interactive map: Paseo, a fancy Mexican-themed restaurant: “QUESO FUNDIDO; gruyère fondue, roasted wild mushrooms, salsa macha, chorizo verde, shallots, charred masa bread”: “CARNE ASADA; goat cheese fondue, oven-roasted tomatoes, roasted shishito, fingerling potatoes g f 12 oz ny steak”: “SHORT RIBS; braised short ribs, oven-roasted tomato, charred avocado, pinto beans, blend of…

Ayesha Nurdjaja is a woman after my own heart: for her Sweet 16, she requested hot dogs in lieu of cake, and I can’t think of a better life decision. In the rare case that you have leftover hot dogs for the holiday weekend, may I suggest her Pigs in the Blanket … believe me, you’ll thank me later! Ayesha keeps it simple, using store-bought biscuit dough instead of making it from scratch. She wraps the dough around 1-inch hot dog links, then rolls them in everything bagel spice with a generous…

When I was a kid in the 1970s and early 1980s, the medicine cabinet looked different than it does today. Carter’s Little Pills helped with occasional irregularity. Doan’s Pills relieved your back and kidney pain. Dristan and Contac were common cold remedies. Anacin was everywhere when I was growing up; it was one of the headache medicines adults reached for first. Some of those products are hard to find now or have disappeared entirely. Others survive in altered form. A few remain widely…

Last week I went to Chipstead station. Mmmmm, chips, I thought. Alas there isn't a chippy in Chipstead, the nearest is Mr Chips on Chipstead Valley Road in Coulsdon, and that's much nearer Woodmansterne station. But it made me wonder how many other UK stations have food in their names. I've created four lists, from 100% to dubious.

If you’re craving something quick, comforting, and irresistibly cheesy, these Irish Cheese Toasties are about to become your new favorite anytime snack. Unlike a traditional grilled cheese, this Irish version is served open‑faced and topped with a rich mixture of eggs, sharp cheddar, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce, which bakes into a beautifully puffy, golden, savory topping that’s completely addictive. It’s a classic UK comfort food — simple, satisfying, and ready in under 20 minutes…

Reposted The Art and Science of Kashmir’s Pink Tea by Sribala Subramanian (atlasobscura.com) The first step, a prolonged boiling of green tea leaves with baking soda, involves a bit of chemistry. Certain fermented teas, when boiled with a pinch of soda, change color from amber to deep maroon. Scientists call that an acid-base reaction, where sodium bicarbonate neutralizes mildly acidic tea, enhancing the color but also taking the edge off its astringent tannins. An international biochemistry…

Here’s one made in China and packaged for the US – as well as other countries. Shrimp. Fish. Let’s do it.

impeccable, etymologically, means something along the lines of "not liable to sin"."im-" being a version of "in-" and "in-" meaning basically "the opposite of what follows" (see: incapable, incapacitated, incorrigible), and peccable coming from "peccare"-- to sin. Given this, I don't think this delicacy is authentically impeccable at all. In judeo-christian religions, so many sins are of the body. carnality, passion, pleasure, and desire lie in the realm of sin, while discipline, self control,…

Livermore’s Rosetta Roasting coffee roastery is going full tiki for their evening cocktail persona this summer and adopting Tikeasy as the venue branding. We’ve been big fans of the Nightcaps at Rosetta cocktail program, but have certainly noticed a gradual shift to more tiki decor taking over the space including a magnificent A-frame to serve as a portal to the tiki area. The staff said that additional traditional tiki elements are coming soon. The dimly lit booths work great with exotic music…

We were lucky enough to have Schneider Deli open a new location just down the street from us and they have a custom roast by Metropolis Coffee Company on drip. As I sipped it at the counter, the place was packed with couples and families. Light streamed in from the east-facing windows and the booths were just as lively as the kitchen. I bought a bag of the beans to try at home. Aspects Roast Medium Origin Blend (unknown) Process Unknown Roast Date 2026-05-05 The beans alone have a pungent…

It's a beautiful sunny day here in the UK and for once I've got it off, and what better way to spend the afternoon than sipping on a whisky in the garden with some music playing? I'm traditionally an Islay drinker and when I decided earlier this year that I wanted to start learning more about whisky and expanding my tastes my first stop was Speyside, a decision largely driven by the fact that my fiancée has shown an interest in Scotch recently and her favourite band have a song called Speyside.…

"A Typical Day Of John Checking E-Mail" Dear [REDACTED],Thank you for choosing Cake Wrecks for such an important occasion! I'd be delighted to offer you a quote, but first let me show you a few of our most popular Sesame Street cakes, so you can pick out your favorite.(Please note that for copyright reasons we can't actually call these Sesame Street characters, but I'm sure our versions will look VERY familiar. ;))"Huge Bird" "Oreo Monster" "Trash Head"aka "Mr. Can-'Do" And "Petrified Elro" Or…

A couple of weeks ago, after deciding we should probably not just eat potato salad for dinner, we made Animal Restaurant’s Balsamic-Glazed Oven-Baked Ribs. They have nearly 2,000 reviews on NYT Cooking and a 5-star rating, so it felt like a guaranteed hit. Also, I love a rib recipe that doesn’t require my non-existent outdoor grill! The ribs are wrapped in foil with garlic, thyme, parsley, and salt, then baked low and slow until tender. The real magic is the sauce: balsamic vinegar, ketchup,…

Simple instructions on how to pan-sear walleye or other similar fish, which is a great alternative to frying. I serve this pan seared walleye with ramps and a wild rice pilaf. Pan Seared Walleye is the latest post on Hunter Angler Gardener Cook.

Inspired by a recipe you’ve treasured for years and adapted from a grocery store leaflet, these little tarts are quite, quite fabulous and impossibly irresistible Each tart begins with a sweet dessert pastry shell that bakes up beautifully crisp…

I was big into beer for novelty, but eventually you start to know what you like and don’t like and what to expect from certain breweries and styles. Flavor fatigue is a real thing, and over time you just get used to certain flavors and don’t get as much enjoyment from them as you used to. This is especially the case because I was trying at least a beer a day for years upon end (not drinking the whole beer, but still). I had a very narrow view of the kind of beer that I wanted to try, but having…

If, like me, you have ever lived in the U.S.A., and if, like me, you are of a sufficiently distinguished BMI so as to rank highly the invention of comestibles, you will agree[1] that Ranch (enPR: rāyŭnch) dressing is one of the great American inventions—right up there with the cotton gin, surgical anesthesia, and the modern assembly line. This bottle is about half empty already. For those unfamiliar with the condiment, Ranch dressing is a tangy, herbaceous, and unsettlingly white sauce of…

Been cooking with Kashmiri chilli powder. What an ingredient. Just incredible. Soo good and makes a huge difference to curries.
