Well Fed On the Town

Mmm, sounds appetizing, doesn’t it?  You know the phrase “everything but the kitchen sink?”  Well, pastry chef Christina Tosi from David Chang’s Momofuku Milk Bar in New York City is taking that phrase to new heights with her newest bakery menu creation.

Yup, she sure is.  Chrissie Hynde is perhaps best known for her days as the lead singer of the group the Pretenders, but now she can add another occupation to her resume … restauranteur.  Just a little over a year ago, she opened up her very own vegetarian restaurant in her hometown of Akron, Ohio.

Then you might want to send a little thank you note to celebrity chef Ming Tsai.  He recently helped pass a bill in Massachusetts that will make it a lot easier for you to dine out.  I don’t have food allergies, but some of my friends’ children have terrible nut allergies, and I know what […]

Recently, we dined at T.G.I. Friday’s to celebrate my stepdaughter’s good report card.  Deemed her “favorite” restaurant, the place was busy and lively as usual. We dined on Baked Potato Skins and discovered some real bargains in the entrees, like a pasta dish I had that was under $6.

The office got donuts the other day and when I spied the box lid, I did a double take.

The giveaway is part of their new ”You Kin Do It!” campaign to encourage everyday workers to keep America running during these tough […]

Thank you so much for making our site a part of your regular routine.  Without you, we wouldn’t be here.  We will be taking a short break to celebrate the holidays with our family and friends, and will resume regular postings on Monday, January 5th (the official kick-off of the annual Food Blog Awards!).
Happy holidays!

No matter what they do, I think it’s safe to say that Burger King will always be #2 to McDonald’s number one spot.  It’s just the way it is.  But luckily for us, that doesn’t stop them for adding new and unusual items to their menu.  Macaroni and cheese for kids?  Done.  Cheesy Tots?  Done.  […]

As if we all need another reason to get ourselves over to the Caribbean … Chef Eric Ripert and his colleagues (none other than Anthony Bourdain, Dean Fearing, Ingrid Hoffman, Laurent Manrique, Michel Richard and Laurent Tourondel) are throwing a Cayman Cookout in January in, you guessed it, the Cayman Islands.  Escape the winter doldrums […]
