Breville Crispy Crust Pizza Maker

I just used it this weekend. I'm a part time ws employee (and occasionally have my doubts about products). This one is shockingly good. If you can't have an outdoor pizza oven, this works well. Heat up time is a bit lengthy (approx 30 minutes), but cooks fast (5-7 min). Nice crispy crust

The best gin for gimlets?

I love Hendricks. Bluecoat is also very good.

Beautiful bottle of local mint vodka... Ideas!?

I would look for one of this low sugar cucumber sodas.

Beer: Is Bigger Always Better?

Really love the large bottles. Pennsylvania has a lot of byobs so it's perfect for 2 people. It's also a great sharing option for the restaurants that have them on the beer list.

Ad-free subscription option???

It's rather annoying when looking at the mobile site. Trying to scroll then accidentally hitting the stupid ad that popped up.

Atlanta restaurant recommendation?

Staying at the intercontinental - would love places within walking distance but short cabs are fine too.

Atlanta restaurant recommendation?

Thanks! Unfortunately I'm there on business for a limited time (2 days!) so I won't have much time to reach outside of the touristy area.

If you had to eat one nationality...

I'm on the indian followed by Lebanese vote. I'd consider voting Moroccan too.

Bad wine club

Check out the brown bag wine trials book. Awesome way to find good cheap wines.

Lunch Box: Make-Ahead Curried Coconut Quinoa with Shrimp and Basil

I agree with both comments. However, already planning to swap out chicken or tofu for the shrimp. And PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make this a regular posting - my work cafe is good for fried things only and I'd like to live a bit longer than most.

Let's Get Drunk Watching: The Taste

I've been watching the show. I have also started yelling at the tv because of it. I'm a little ashamed of myself. But seriously, who decides malbec and a goat cheese fritter are a good pairing??? I mean, I love both but they are not friends.

knives and honing steels

Shun knives have a different angle than wusthof knives (15-16 degrees vs 25-26). There is a guide on the steel to ensure you are honing at the right degree. Plus, you'll prob void the lifetime warranty if you don't use a shun steel.

Gift Guide: Kitchen Gear Over $50

Le creuset has a round 6 3/4 Dutch oven for $199.95 at Williams Sonoma. Great deal compared to price of their other sizes.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: La Quercia's Pork Belly Heaven Package

Love it pan fried with Brussel sprouts

Do older Kitchenaid mixer attachments work with new mixer?

Bowls, whisk, beaters, etc are not interchangeable between all models. If its an attachment that goes in the front of the top of the machine (I.e. pasta rollers) it works on all of them.

ISO a Better Juicer

Breville has a new juicer (similar to the hurom). Only way to go.

Crumbled Corn Bread - Help!

Crumb topping on top of Mac and cheese

Oiling a new rolling pin - suggestions?

Boos board cream - it is a mixture of beeswax and food grade mineral oil. Only thing I use on wooden items.

In Pod Veritas: We Try Starbucks' New Verismo Single-Cup System

Starbucks machine is basically a copy of the nespresso machine except with a powdered milk pod. IMO, nespresso is hands down much better - I've tried both. I've also had the tassimo - the ingredients on the milk discs are frightening. At least the Starbucks pods are only milk powder.
