Top Chef: Cold War (with a side trip to cJ’s Miami)
Also known as “the claws come out.” Miami Detour As soon as I saw that Michelle Bernstein was going to be the guest judge on this episode of Top Chef, I knew there could be some tension since both Michelle and Andrea are chefs in Miami. Andrea starts the day in a “good place” but as soon as she sees Michelle she gets super tense and kind of bitter. Andrea says she’s not so sure if you sat down at Michelle’s restaurant and hers that one would be so much better than the other. I’m sorry to say, Andrea, that…

That Sauce Makes the Pie
Posted on 2010.02.10 | No CommentsEmilia’s Pizzeria opened in the fall and from the friends & family opening onwards has been gathering the kudos. It’s a small shopfront (still no sign, although I think I saw it leaning up against the wall when I picked up my pie tonight) and Keith Freilich, the owner, mans it by himself, from answering the phones (it’s a good idea to order your pizza ahead of time if you expect to get one) to making each and every pie. And the pizza? It’s a large 18″ pie with thin crust (sort of NY style) with the edges have that... -
Sunday Dinner: Sunchokes
Posted on 2010.02.07 | No CommentsSunchokes may also be known as Jerusalem Artichokes, but they are no artichoke. In fact they are all brown and knobby and look a lot more like overgrown ginger (but don’t taste like ginger) than anything else. I feel like we’ve been seeing sunchokes everywhere (Top Chef anyone?). Lately they’ve been all over restaurant menus too — from fried to pureed — which I really enjoyed — and I was excited to see the sunchoke recipe in the latest issue of Fine Cooking. I whipped up a bunch of the roasted sunchokes with artichoke hearts today during the Super Bowl... -

Cookbooks in Current Rotation
Posted on 2010.02.03 | No CommentsI have a ton of cookbooks. Maybe not 101 Cookbooks, but I counted the other day and there are definitely 70+. I love reading about food almost as much as eating (okay, well maybe not quite that much). But how many cookbooks do I actually use? Sad to say, it’s actually a pretty short list of our “go-to” books, with only occasional side-trips to the other many books on the shelf. And I’m finding that even more so now that I’m trying to report in regularly on our meals… lots of repetitive references. So, without further ado… books that keep... -
Sunday Dinner: Quinoa and Avocado Salad with Dried Fruit and Lemon-Cumin Vinaigrette
Posted on 2010.01.31 | No CommentsWe try to incorporate a lot of interesting whole grains into our diet — and quinoa is one of our favorites. But just boiling it up and tossing in some salt, pepper and oil is not that interesting, and even the lusciousness of tossing in some easily melting cheese like crescenza gets repetitive. So when I saw this recipe in the latest issue of Fine Cooking, I couldn’t wait to try it. I whipped up a batch as the side dish for our dinner tonight (braised short ribs again — I meant to do tequila-braise but we ended up with... -
Where I’m Hoping to Eat and Drink in the Bay Area in 2010
Posted on 2010.01.27 | No CommentsI'm sure we'll be going to the places we loved in 2009… but we're also all about finding new gems (ok, some of these aren't strictly "new" but they do fall into "it's new to me" or "haven't been there in ages".
