Cook the Book: 'The Modern Baker'

Biggest disaster-carrot cake that fell apart into crumbs when you sliced it (the proportions in the recipe were wrong). Of course, I made it for Thanksgiving at a friend's house and did not test the recipe first (never did that again!).

New York City's Best Dining Experiences

We have eaten at Babbo several times, some better than others. The last time we were there (with friends who own a restaurant), the waitstaff was pretentious/snobby, we were rushed through dinner and our guests were not impressed with the restaurant at all. We, as a group, vowed never to go back (and haven't).
Per Se was wonderful. I would love to get into Momofuku Ko, but I think it would be impossible.

I like to try different candy recipes during the Christmas Holidays, so a few years ago, I found a recipe for homemade cherry chocolates. They were easy to make and tasted great, so I made a lot of them, for family and friends. Now, every Christmas they all want more of them, lol, which is fine, with me, they are easy to make and you can make them early in the season. They improve with age.

Biggest success is when I make my Candy Bar Cheeskcake. Always turns out perfect. I have never had any horrifyingly bad experiences. So far, so good (knock on wood).

Let's just say that you cannot switch Baking Soda and Baking Powder in and out...you must use what the recipe calls for...*bleck*

My biggest success is my amazingly awesome Christmas dinners each and every year! I fix all of the traditional favorites and try 5 or 6 new recipes I have selected during the year for something special.
