A cheese plate with some cured meats, honey and some Spanish cava.

Steak and Shakes around Cincinnati are usually OK, but you won't see people lined up around the block, that's for sure. @bobcatsteph3 is right about the wait.

Sounds like they stepped up their game for NY.

I think porchetta might one day be the hot baby name of the year. I can totally see a family with 2 girls and 1 boy--porchetta, pancetta and iberico.

Love Mad Elf! I think it's my favorite Troeg's beer. It'll get you into trouble, though, if you're not careful.

With Taqueria Mercado a few blocks away from our apartment, and having indulged in some choriqueso when I have actually had a hangover, I can fully attest to the accuracy of this post.

Also, I am now down to only half a pound of extra melt! Looks like I'll be calling up my dealer soon.

Instead of ketchup, try using tomato puree1 I use san marzano, but you don't have to be fancy. Then you can add the vinegar and sugar to sweeten and tang it up to your liking. It give some more control over the final product.

Where I work, I was put in charge of training the newbies. As if sitting side by side by my computer in a small cube was not uncomfy enough, the person I trained awhile back insisted upon eating special K bars every two hours to "keep his metabolism up". He would eat them noisily with his mouth open, then spend the next 30 minutes sucking the stuck bits out of his teeth. It got to the point that when he reached for a special K bar, I would suddenly have to use the restroom--and then I would flee.

A local restaurant served chipotle mayo with their fries and it's insanely addictive. And now I know a recipe I can make whenever I want. uh-oh. #biggerpants

I went there on my 21st birthday, and put a big dent in my then-boyfriend now-husband's wallet. They used to have this drink called the "Bellaire Pear" that was I went nuts for.

Now when we stop by, I stick with Walk the Planks and then maybe we play Gauntlet Legends for a while.

My Dad uses it like gravy. It's not so much a burger as a "Ketchup transporting device."

Every.single.time. we go out to eat it happens, and we look on in horror.

@Kerry Saretsky, I was just lamenting the lack of diet grape soda to said grape soda boycottng husband the other day at the store. He just shuddered and gave me an odd look.

Reduced fat white cheddar cheez-its.Chocolate bunnies purchased the day after easter at 1/2 price for emergencies. Splenda.

I hope they also are aware of the delicious float combination of lindemans raspberry framboise beer and vanilla bean ice cream.

Yay for beer floats...and beer in general, for that matter.
