Maybe Serious Eats needs to be more Serious regarding vegetables. They are culinarily sophisticated, too! And not only with truffle oil atop...
Dinner Tonight: Curried Sautéed Cauliflower
Franny's (a phenomenal pizza restaurant on Flatbush Ave near Park Slope) has a curry cauliflower appetizer that is probably similar to yours. The cauliflower turns brown and nearly cripsy... definitely more than a tad of oil there.

daaaaaark. i always say that smarter people prefer dark :)
Dinner Tonight: Curried Sautéed Cauliflower
This curried cauliflower was fantastic! I used slightly more than tbsp of store-bought Jamaican Hot Curry powder, and it was just the right amount of spice. I placed the lid on it to help it steam, as mentioned above, but not before getting a nice little char on the veggies. Plus, I made it last night just to have it for lunch, so the "leftovers" were kick-a**. Thanks for the recipe!
Dinner Tonight: Curried Sautéed Cauliflower
This was delicious. Seemed like it would be too dry to cook with such a small amount of oil, but it ended up browning perfectly and the onions almost carmelized. I put a lid on at the end to steam it just a bit, so the cauliflower would be cooked a little more. Can't wait for the leftovers!

So many great desserts to choose from! I'm going to have to go with something simple - the olive oil gelato from Otto. In close second is the toasted coconut cake at wd-50. Third place goes to pretty much anything Alex Stupak concocts. No place goes to anything from Magnolia. There are FAR better desserts than that not only in NYC, but pretty much anywhere else in the world!

I haven't tried as many as I wish I had, but so far, it has to be those cupcakes at Sugar Sweet Sunshine.
