Well first of all I was excited to eat at Bobby Flays place so I had high expectations but that shouldn't a affect my review. I ate at the Lake Grove restaurant. I ordered a blue burger medium rare, a dark chocolate shake and onion rings. The burger was actually raw! and the bottom half of the roll was not usable because it was saturated and I was unable to pick it up. I sent the burger back and this time I got one that was well done. They can't seem to get the cooking process right. Even that bottom half of the roll was wet. The shake was nothing more than ice cream stirred up to be soft, it was too thick to drink, and surprisingly for that price ($5.00) it was pretty small. The onion ring order was also small for the price and not so great, not crunchy or that tasty, rather bland. I have to say for the value, the whole meal was definitely not worth the price and the atmosphere was very cold and uninviting. I will definitely not be visiting this place again and I will not recommend this place to anyone either. I can honestly say that burger king is better than this place. Sorry Bobby, I think you better visit this location and straighten out your good name.

I miss bbq munchos, planters cheeseballs (there is another brand available now in a large container that are good but...) and morton raspberry filled powdered donuts. Oh, those were the days.

Soda-Club and SodaStream are the obvious and best in my opinion choices for home soda making solutions www.makeyoursoda.com is a site I recommend to learn more about soda making and get a discount on your purchase as well

My understanding of soul food is that it is a subset of Southern cooking that grew out of the dishes developed by the slaves to make do with the "unwanted" foods and cuts of meat that were left for them (my mother is of Norwegian and African-American descent, and this is what she always told me). Thus, soul food includes things like black-eyed peas, ham hocks and collard or dandelion greens, chittlins/chitterlings, and yams or sweet potatoes (especially when they're used as sweeteners, as in pie). Given that the provenance of slavery was the American South, these dishes have since become incorporated into the canon of Southern food and eaten by all kinds of people (including my very mixed family). And that is, I think, a beautiful thing.

actually unless it makes you feel really really good, putting the bottles in the recycling bin is the worse of the two options because recycling them wastes a bunch of money, energy, and time.

I haven't had one in decades but just to keep this sandwich going, I will go there and have them.

New York Times had Donut Pudding printed a few weeks ago. Made it twice and pased it around to friends. Made more raspberry jelly for the second batch and doubled the # of donuts for a really large pan. If you decide to make some kind of donut thing, don't use Dunkin Donuts. They don't have enough jelly in them unless you are driving and eating a donut with the other hand. You can order big ones from the Stop & Shop. Frozen dough, sure but they hold a lot of jelly and when you add cream, eggs and sugar. Yum.

They're tastey but they're like 700 calories each!!!!!!

sadly, you have to eat this with a fork and the cone gets all soggy because of the steam. it's an interesting concept, but not one that was totally thought out.

Least: Ina Garten; from her voice to her food, personality, friends, etc. . .she drives me insane.

Most: Giada Di Laurentiis, I have a girl crush on her.

mmmm, this sounds sooo good!!! i LOVE durian ice cream. i wish i was in singapore right now. i want to try one.

The tomato should be grilled, the eggs fried, and where's the jam for the toast. And a nice cuupa!
