Super Bowl Giveaway: 10-Pound Box of Pat LaFrieda Sliders

I live in Indianapolis---therefore, I'll be holed up in my house, staying out of downtown and any area where I'd have to have contact with awful bands and/or expense account bros.

My Pie Monday: Purple Potatoes, Sicilian Pizza, and More!

thanks for the cover shot! long-time reader...first-time submitter. lately i've been on a barbecue pizza kick, but that white sauce/potato/bacon combo really was the jam.

gonna try and experiment with a fermented dough this week...hopefully good results follow.

kalamazoo eats?

cosmo's does look super. wish i had seen that before i went!

ended up being on campus much more than i thought, but did get to bell's two nights in a row. i generally really like most of their beers, so that was swell. especially the sour brown they had on tap...nice to see people on this side of the pond making sours. food was also better (and cheaper) than i was led to believe....so it was a win-win.

hopefully i'll have more time for fooding next time i'm up that way.

columbus, oh---where to eat?

we ended up at clever crow, due to it being walkable from the wexner. excellent recommendation....pizza was some of the best i've ever had. especially the house-made sausage w/ caramelized onions. and the crust! about as outstanding as the Hallogallo/NEU! show itself....which was supreme.

Thanks for the recommendations. I'd heard of Jeni's, looks like we'll go there for sure. May have to hit El Arepazo...sounds awesome.

On the road from Michigan to the Smokies (TN)

If you're passing through Indianapolis tonight or tomorrow...some of the best food on the East-side is not too far off the beaten path.

Papa Roux - http://www.paparouxindy.com/
(make sure you get a po'boy. and bread pudding.)

Oh, Kokomo. Grew up there. Nostalgia forces me to recommend Louie's Coney Island, which is now a stone's throw off of US-31 - http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/172/985992/restaurant/Indiana/Louies-Coney-Island-Kokomo

Diner establishment. If you go, get the specialty, the "bake" (short for "Baked Hamburger"). It's hamburger, formed into links, and stewed in a special sauce. Get it with mustard and onion.

Quiz: How Much Do You Know About Indianapolis Food Culture?

7 for 7. but i agree with the lack of pork tenderloin, beef/turkey manhattan, and/or Famous Stew questions. and what about pawpaws, aka the "indiana banana".

for a good resource to non-chain eating in Indy, check out indyethnicfood.com,
a constantly updated database of ethnic food in the indy-area.

as for the survey about chain restaurant comment; i think that's more reflective of indiana as a whole. not that i'm defending indianapolis too much....it's just better than any superficial survey would indicate.

Weekend Cook and Tell Round Up: Savory Pies

oooooh! i have one to add. i just call it sausage pie. winter stand-by, for sure. http://dronestreet.blogspot.com/2010/01/eat-this.html

and i agree about jamaican patties......they are the best.

Dinner Tonight: Quinoa with Chard and Mushrooms

the girlfriend has been making this recipe for a couple months....and then it appeared here! one of her (and my) favorite adaptations is topping it with warm slices of roasted beet. and then sriracha of course. :)

so good.
