Win Pop Chart Lab's "Constitutions of Classic Cocktails" Poster

Is whiskey, three ice cubes, and a splash of spring water a cocktail? If not I'll add a drop or two of Angostura bitters. There we go.

Cook the Book: Ad Hoc at Home

My neighborhood has no restaurant, seeing that I live 9 miles from a town. So I'd guess I would say that my favorite restaurant is at my aunt and uncle's house, a mile up the road from me.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Two Peter Luger Steaks

Can Swiss Steak be classified a steak or just a recipe name? Anyways, I love it because it's cheaper, tenderer, richer, and a a comfort.

But if you want to send this poor Southern boy the real deal, let it be a NY Strip.

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Culinary Adventure Society

Is Ypsilanti Michigan included in travels? Then it's a loose meat burger and a root beer at Bill's on Michigan Ave.

But to try to save face in the travel category, I would have to say the Beef Wellington I had on a Norwegian Cruise Line cruise to Alaska. Merely for the fact that I had never had Beef Wellington.
