Brooklyn Bowl: Can Bowling Alley Food Be Finger-Lickin' Good?
All looks good except for the fried chicken....maybe its the skin only, but it looks over cooked.
looking for a good food book or cookbook to read
Cross Creek Cookery By Majorie Kennan Rawlings (the writer of the classics The Yearling and Cross Creek). Its obiviously an old book, but the stories she tells of how a recipe came to her are wonderful.

'Are You a Menu Whisperer?': Take 2
I am the menu whisperer in my family. My secret, anytime i see an item with Goat Cheese, or Mushrooms, I know it will be good. I know it sounds ridiculous but its true. Its not the only thing I order, but they are always the best.

Making peace over beer: What should President Obama serve?
Fro the record, it didnt squash anything. Nice spin doctoring there whitehouse.
Making peace over beer: What should President Obama serve?
I think its ridiculous that this even has to be settle. Obama should have kept his mouth shut.
Which is more important, great ingredients or great technique?
A little of both....nothing worse that having a beautiful cut of meat, and having it serve WELL done.

I think that Paula Deen looks like a fun person to be around. Its just her southern charm. I love her still.
Bad Kitchen Habits
I hate when my husband puts the spoons going the wrong direction in the utensil drawer.
We also have a really small kitchen and it seems that when ever I am chopping veggies and what not, that seems to be the only time when he wants to come in an reach over my head to get a glass. Just ask me to get it for you, instead of reaching over me when I have a knife.

Cooking for your pets
Nope, I think it is kinda obsessive, unless that is, your pet has a health condition that requires it to eat special foods, and you are willing to do it.

LOL these are the best comments I have ever read on this site. Its a freakin' burger.....you wanted american cheese, not cheddar? I am baffled. Seriously?
Spinach-artichoke dip
Three Minute Spinach Artichoke Dip
1 package of frozen spinach
1 can of quartered artichokes
2 cups or mayo
2 cups of parm cheese
salt and pepper to taste
Its not gourmet may any sense of the word, but boy is it tasty and very easy to make.
Awesome Hack for leftover salad

Paula Deen's Husband Will Write 'My Delicious Life with Paula Deen'
Yep, they're so fat, they're so ignorant, they use so much butter, and they're so Southern, and they have money in their pants pockets than anyone here has in their 401k. Envy can be so ugly.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
A Hole in One!!!! My grandfather used to make these for me when I was a very little girl, visiting him in Lancaster, PA. He was not a golfer. He was first-generation American of Swedish descent, who had grown up in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Paradise Lost at Paradise Cove Beach Cafe in Malibu, California
Hey dude, you got to eat at the restaurant that was next to Jim Rockford's trailer!!! That's seriously cool. I'm all over this place when I get to LA. FYI it used to be called the Sandcastle.
'Are You a Menu Whisperer?': Take 2
No 'Menu Whisperer' here! I eat what I like, but many times when I try something that isn't part of my regular menu items, I am disappointed.
My son, who usually is my dining companion most times, seems to get exactly what he wants every single time. But he eats more meat than I do and usually the house specialty. I believe it is a learned behavior and I just haven't had the time to learn it!
'Are You a Menu Whisperer?': Take 2
I think I have this skill, but only at restuarants in America. I recently discovered that it wasn't so useful abroad...
Anyhow, people have asked me before, and mostly, I don't have any great answers, but I do have only one rule: if there's a dish named after the place, get it. Even if it's chicken. It will be awesome.
'Are You a Menu Whisperer?': Take 2
This is a great topic. I am certainly NOT a menu whisperer. Unless I have an old standby, I almost always like what my boyfriend has more. But...sometimes he feels that way about my food. So truth be told we're probably both in the grass-is-greener camp but regardless, I'm still not a menu whisperer...
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Some great names here - I love Egyptian Eyes especially! But wow: over 200 comments, and apparently no one else calls them "top hats". (And yes, I always thought my mother invented them, too. :) )
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
My hubby made these for me for me all the time when we were in college - we call them Eggs in a Basket.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
@Ed Levine - My mom called them "Egyptian eggs" as well. I think me, you and Embackus's friend were the only one. It seems to be the least known name for them.

Eggy in a basket, from V for Vendetta.

Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Everyone knows it's called a "bunny egg". My grandmother invented it.
Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?
Growing up Dad called it a Bulls Eye (from Rhode Island). We always loved when Dad had to make breakfast! He cut the hole with a shot glass so the hole was just big enough for the yolk part and the rest of the egg ran over the bread so you had to flip it and cook that side too! Just don't over cook it and it won't be dry. The hardest part was buttering both sides of the bread. I get around that now by using a brush and softened butter.

"As a standalone restaurant Brooklyn Bowl would be totally in the pocket."
Who says ya gotta bowl? Clever pun, BTW.
As always, very nice imagery, Robyn Lee.

I was planning to avoid this place... well, forever.. but I love malts and now I need to make a stop there!
Brooklyn Bowl: Can Bowling Alley Food Be Finger-Lickin' Good?
I was disappointed by the ribs, but my friends and I devoured a huge plate of the rock and roll fries in about a minute. Those things must have crack in them.
Brooklyn Bowl: Can Bowling Alley Food Be Finger-Lickin' Good?
man, how many people ate all this food? did they have a defibrillator at this joint?! i've been such a lazy williamsburger i haven't even made it over to this place, don't really like bowling, but what may sway me is that glistening hot fudge sundae, something i've been craving all summer and i need to GET ON real quick. right to the face! hope the fudge is thick n' a little salty....man that's the best...
Brooklyn Bowl: Can Bowling Alley Food Be Finger-Lickin' Good?
Dang that sloppy joe looks good. I'd be interested in seeing how their stage/music venue is set up. Shonen Knife, Blue Ribbon & bowling sounds like a good combination. I can't figure out what this Twestival event thing is they're doing. Maybe I'm stupid.
Brooklyn Bowl: Can Bowling Alley Food Be Finger-Lickin' Good?
Ed, I have to humbly disagree with your assessment of the pork sandwich. The fact that it exists is a blessing from the pork gods. I absolutely crave this sandwich! Really liked Brooklyn Bowl in general too. The manager is super nice (and cute to boot) and as long as you don't try to go on a Saturday night, it's fairly easy to get lanes.
Also, their beer selection rocks. Love Six Point!
If I could eat anything right now, I'd pick _________.
Today is a different day...I want pad thai, and duck choo chee with jasmine rice. For dessert, black rice and mangoes in thick, warm coconut milk served in a chalice.
If I could eat anything right now, I'd pick _________.
so many things: 2 spicy tuna rolls with a miso soup, this salad i had the other day with fresh mozzarella and polenta croutons, empanadas, really hot cheese pizza, french fries.
