I'm a sucker for a good fried oyster sandwich.
Question of the Day: Best Meal You've Had When Dining Solo
Dinner at the Parish Cafe in Boston. An upscale oyster Po' Boy with cucumber dill salad, a couple of fruity martinis, and heavenly white chocolate bread pudding with coffee for dessert, plus lovely service. It's one of those meals that reminds you that it's fun to do nice things for yourself.

I love my easy cheesy orzo -- orzo in a homemade creamy cheese sauce with canned tomatoes, pease, and lots of garlic. So simple and so good.

Does Anyone Still Eat Chicken-Fried Steak?
Also, I'm glad to see MY favorite growing up made the list. Heitmiller's is still the epitome of chicken fried steak in my mind.
Does Anyone Still Eat Chicken-Fried Steak?
I am from Texas, and I ate a lot of chicken fried steak in my day. Now I live in Boston and I'm a pescetarian, but even so, I get cravings for a good chicken fried steak now and again. The only place to get it here that I know of is the Cracker Barrel chain, and even that is a fair distance from Boston, out in the suburbs somewhere.
Question of the Day: How often do you stock up?
I get a farm share of vegetables every week during the summer and stop at the market a couple times during the week for fruits, along with the occasional dairy and bread items.

Cook the Book: Classic Maine Lobster Rolls
I love Jasper White's Summer Shack, but I've never had their lobster roll. I think the best I've had was at the Stonewall Kitchen flagship store's restaurant. AMAZING!
Where's Our Wall of Sardines?
I remember eating sardines in mustard on saltine crackers as a kid.
I wonder if there were a better selection of sardines available in America if they would become a more popular snack.

tofu veggie stirfry with homemade peanut sauce. the sauce uses peanut butter, very hot red peppers, fresh grated ginger, and low sodium soy sauce. soooo good.
Cook the Book: Vegetarian Suppers
We call it "Squeaky Cheese Pasta". We prepare the hallumi cheese skewers from Delia's Smiths Summer book (cheese, red and yellow peppers and onions marinated overnight in LOTS of herbs with a little lime juice and oil then grilled) and serve it over fresh pasta. Great for dinner and even better as a cold salad for lunch the next day. Squeaky cheese because the hallumi kind of squeaks in your mouth when you eat it!

My favorite vegetarian dish is a Korean bean curd stew.

Oh good lord, how in the world can I answer that? Eggplant parm is always a winner, but I like just about all vegetables prepared well. At Thanksgiving dinner my favorite veggie dish was the Brussels sprouts with caramelized shallots.
