i'm also a fan of good fresh pasta, olive oil and fresh parm.....
Crawfish at The Boiling Crab in California
we always take it to go because of our 3 year old but we ALWAYS make a stop across the street from the alhambra location for a loaf of french bread from the bahn mi place to dip the bread in the sauce.... deadly but YUMMY.
Cook the Book: 'The Craft of Baking'
for nostlgia - it's the "atomic" cake my parents got me every year for my birthday in the chicago suburbs. can't find it anywhere else!
for taste, the banana creme pie at emeril's in las vegas 8 years ago was amazing!
Cook the Book: 'Gourmet Today'
i believe in high school, i got a martha stewart cookbook because i decided i wanted to learn how to cook. i cooked stuffed mushrooms (the easiest recipe i could find) and then gave up cooking until i was out of college and on my own because the results were sooooo horrendous!
Cook the Book: 'Bite-Size Desserts'
i can't stay away from two-bite brownies... YUM.
Cook the Book: 'What We Eat When We Eat Alone'
anything and everything dipped in a lot of ketchup. my husband finds this gross so i can only do it when i'm alone.... one of my favorites is cold pizza drizzled with cold jetchup on top..
Cook the Book: '100 Best Vegetarian Recipes'
my cauliflower pasta or anything that is vegetarian indian food - so much flavor!
Cook the Book: '660 Curries' by Raghavan Iyer
my first experience with indian food was bad - a friend brought some kind of donut-hole looking thing covered in what she described as tomato curry. it was for international day in h.s. and it was AWFUL. i didn't want to ever eat indian food again.. but in college, 2 sisters who were indian invited us over for dinner and i didn't want to be rude so i went. it was AMAZING. i have been hooked on indian food since then!
Cook the Book: 'Canal House Cooking, Vol. 1'
Grilled corn and watermelon lemonade!
Cook the Book: 'Bobby Flay's Burgers, Fries & Shakes'
my grandma's bulgogi burger was my favorite but i'd take a burger with fried egg on top anytime!
Cook the Book: 'Tacos'
my husband told me the best tacos in LA were in koreatown and i laughed in his face but when i tried the pork adobado tacos from mariela's i was in love and that is where i learned that i HAVE to have fresh radishes with any authentic taco :)
Cook the Book: 'Real Cajun'
my mom's homemade dumpling soup when i was sick.
Cook the Book: 'Urban Italian'
spaghetti with curry sauce over it..
Cook the Book: 'Ten'
my strongest craving was also during pregnancy... HONEY NUT cheerios. my husband had just come back from the store and during that short time (store is .3 miles away) i just had to have some honey nut cheerios and sent him right back to get some..
Cook the Book: 'Beyond the Great Wall'
went to tahiti for our honeymoon and after eating resort food for about a week, we went to chez louise in taha'a for some homecooked local food and it was AMAZING and we also got to throw the seafood skins and crab shells back into the ocean for the fish to eat.... THAT was worth eating resort food for a week!
Dinner Tonight: Bibimbap
i cheat and buy the ready-marinated veggies in a container at my korean market. then i just cook my own meat and fry my egg and we're good to go!
Dinner Tonight: Korean Burritos
marinade was awesome but the white rice in burrito was too strange for my husband. maybe i'd mix the rice with the marinated meat next time..?

Cook the Book: 'Simple Fresh Southern'
I have made my great grandmother's carrot and zucchini o-shaped loaf for my in-laws for the past three years. I surround the loaf with and put in the middle tons of roasted broccoli - definitely a crowd pleaser, as it goes fantastic with the turkey and mashed potatoes and all the other classic sides!
