Lactose and My Adios

Hey, I think that lactose intolerance causes you to fart before eating
the pizza, while standing in line for your slice. This could be an
advantage at a busy place by possibly thinning out the crowd.
You almost had me there, Adam. Nice try! I almost unsubscribed,
but decided to see what others had to say first. Great blog!
Stick around. Best Regards.

Epi-Log Visits Di Fara

Adam, thanks very much sending the Epi-Log visit to Di Fara. I have
never been to his restaurant, but I did live about 6 blocks from Dom's
location. Moved away prior to his opening. Too bad! I love the look
and description of the pies. Now live in southern California so I guess
I will never taste a Di Fara pizza.

Ed Levine's Serious Diet Week 10: Discovering Nature's Best 100-Calorie Snack in Seville

Ed, I know Seville. I lived about 60 miles from that city from '68 to '74
and the tapas were top notch as well as the sit down meals. Had to watch
what I ate to avoid getting obese even though I was in my early 30's back
then. I am also familiar with Lisbon having vacationed there in 2002. I
agree that it is difficult to get a good meal there if you are not Portuguese.
Most of the major offerings are uniquely keyed to native tastes which are
difficult to assimilate to as a foreigner.

The Food Super Bowl — Boston vs. New York: No Contest

Being a native New Yorker, although I must admit to leaving the city
more than 53 years ago, I fully agree with Ed about the superior varities
of food in NYC as compared to Boston or New England. BUT -
where do the N.Y. Giants play????? Isn't their stadium located in
new jersey??? Why the team's full name wasn't changed long ago,
as well as that of the Jets is a mystery to this California dweller and
partime football fan. I do miss authentic N.Y. food and that's the truth!

If you send me this offered prize, I will say extra large porterhouse
and that's not too far from my usual choice. Thanks!

Cook the Book: 'Think Like a Chef'

Bring New York Strip Steak to room temperature; drizzle a bit of
olive oil onto both sides; season with Kosher salt and freshly ground
coarse black pepper, rubbed gently into the meat; then grill over
hottest fire until medium rare. Easy and delicious!

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Two Peter Luger Steaks

Prime aged Kansas City Strip Medium Rare. For those who have
ventured yet to Long Beach's 555 Steakhouse, this is a bone in
New York Strip. Nothing like it especially accompanied by a bottle
Silver Oak Cabernet Sauvingon.
