  1. Ah ha, you spill the beans. How well do you know Scott? I mean, I love the guy, but I wouldn't call him a sweetie. I had always said that if he and I and a few other ex-2amys kitchen thugs should start a band, we could call it; Scottie to Hottie and The Cranky Curmudgeons...
  2. All cheese is good. The ones that come to mind in this instance are; Mozzarella di Bufala, Sheep Ricotta, Humboldt Fog... OH! Manchego!
  3. I think it's a good idea. If I were to open a restaurant, this would be something I would consider.
  4. I've never been to the Centreville store. The Annandale one has the crummy powdered bubble tea, I forget the brand name, my kids like it, I don;t .
  5. or a paring knife. Wear gloves.
  6. can a mod move this to the trite foods section, please? It's popping up on menus everywhere...
  7. Weber grilled ribeye with S+P, steamed broccoli with butter and lots of salt, chopped romaine and homegrown garden peach tomatoes, red wine vinegar and olive oil. Consumed after 30 minutes of skateboarding with my son.
  8. Miso soup and green tea. Also popsicles. (home made) Chicken broth with very small diced carrots, leeks, and celery hearts, beaten parmesan egg drops.
  9. Also being farmed on ropes in Maine, (Tremont, Blue Hill area) are Bouchet Mussels. You will find them smaller and sweeter than the PEI mussels. They also are much quicker to open their shells when cooking, and contain more sweet mussel liquour. In my opinion, these are the best mussels available.
  10. I'm pretty sure you can get it at El Supermercado in Springfield, Va.
  11. I like a grilled cheese with buffalo burratta, sliced black truffle (a good canned one will suffice) and olive oil on sliced crusty bread. Grill over wood, coal, or gas. Trite'n'tasty.
  12. The article says Matt Levine, (no idea who that is). Ed Levine is a food critic and pizza lover.
  13. Is this for real? I mean, you are pulling our collective leg here, right?
  14. Haven't been to UPN since Anthony installed the new oven, however, over a year ago he was baking some fine pies in what I believe was a homemade forno. He makes the best pie I have had on this continent. As far as my personal best pizze experiences, they were all in Naples. Salvo, Da Michele, Starita and Gino Sorbillo would be the best. They are all different. If I could make a pizza as well as any of theses places, I would be quite pleased with myself. Here is a photo, (I didn't take it) of a Pizza Marinara at Salvo.
  15. I ate there once, just over a month ago. There was a guy who greeted us at the door and waited on us at the table. I just assumed that it was the norm. The crab cakes weren't bad.
  16. No jicama in the chip basket last night. I kind of miss it now. The rest of the meal was good, and cheap. Great place to take the kids. At 8:30 the place was full except for the final table where we were seated.
  17. Taqueria Poblano, Arlington. cebollitas 3 tacos al pastor (little dry but tasty) pork taquitos (yummy) 1 fish taco 1 l.a. crispy beef taco cheese quesadilla (large, 9y.o.) cheese quesadilla (small, 7y.o.) 1 diet coke 5 lime coolers 2 baskets of chips and salsa and Mayan chocolate fritters $65.something... It was all pretty good, and they have new menus
  18. The kids just have a small, (not an option at Ray's) plain, and they eat it, (well, most of it). I usually have a #12 and an Iced coffee with sweetened condensed milk, (sometimes I am a little more adventurous with the bowl, but not often.) My better half has the same. Add onions in vinegar, a sprite and a lemonade and you are looking at $30-$40 (depending on the grown up portions)... When it comes to Pho 75, I know what I am talking about. On second thought, I'll take that bet. What's at stake?
