England In Less Than A Month - I need some help!
I would go to William Curley. Haven't been, but I've looked at his chocolate book and it's great. He's a chocolatier-patissier and has opened a dessert bar recently.
Pizza Flavored Steamed Buns: Stupid, or Genius?
Not sure. But by the way, it's mantou, not mandou.
Swivel peeler - towards or away?

Bake the Book: Dolci
Sorry to be boring, but it is Cannoli!
Spot of Tea: Palais des Thés Créations
I've only tried the fleur de geisha and i wasn't crazy about it. the cherry blossom was a little too strong for me. i also bought it in a pouch, so a lot of the leaves are crushed. i'm hoping if i spring for a tin, i won't run into the same problem... we'll see.
Caramel
i second the candy thermometer and cooking the sugar less.
Red Egg: Great Dim Sum Without The Carts
Interesting... Presentation and composition seem to differ slightly from what I usually expect for those dishes. Don't know if that's a good thing or bad thing.
Cook the Book: 'The Glorious Pasta of Italy'
homemade pork ragu... mmmmmm.
Cook the Book: 'Canal House Cooking Volume No. 6'
I used to live in a small town in India, and rarely cooked for myself. Few people lived alone there, so I always got a laugh or look of confusion when I used to ask for one eggplant or two onions. I would then sheepishly handover the one or two rupees it cost.
Cook the Book: 'Purple Citrus & Sweet Perfume'
warm pita and tzatziki.
Cook the Book: 'The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook'
A tie between thunder cake and everything in harry potter.
Cook the Book: 'Salad as a Meal'
either steak salad or taco salad.
Best Fries in NYC?
I second the fries at The Spotted Pig.
