Seafood Risotto recipes
I've been dabbling in risotto recipes because it's a good way to get my kids to each their veggies. Does anyone out there have any resources for really good seafood risotto recipes?
I would greatly appreciate it!!!

The Honeycrisps are here!!!
Honeycrisps are awesome, but I also like the hard, little Barry apples. Honeycrisps are sooo shortlived.

Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder on Clark gets a vote from me.

Cinnamon LIfe with ice cold skim milk!!! There's a new Maple Sugar Life that's not to bad either.
How Do You Like Your Pasta?
Don't like long noodles, too messy. The best is cheese ravioli with a sun dried tomato cream sauce. YUM MO (Can I say that, or is it a copyright infringement?)

I thought the whole contest was mediocre at best. I much prefer the gritty, vulgar "Top Chef", Lisa and all. Even Gordon Ramsey's "Hell's Kitchen" was better than this. Running around and cooking on a moving train? Who was the genious behind that one? And I like Bobby Flay, but's what's with the ugly, wide ties?
Fogo de Chao in Philadelphia?
I've been to the one in Atlanta. It's a great atmosphere, but he's right. It's about $50 a head.

My grandma, she made 40 different kinds of cookies at Christmas, not to mention the 10 different kinds of candies and always the Norwegian specialties of lefse and Krumkkakka. But I loove Paula Deen, not only does she make it easy, but it's fun to be in the kitchen.
Five Guys Park Slope, Opening Day
We have two here in Milwaukee, WI and it is pricey, but they go way overboard with the fries. One order feeds four. They're building another 5G about 10 minutes from my home. Kids even prefer over other burger joints.

Patti LaBelle's "Over the Rainbow" Mac and Cheese does it for me. Four types of cheese (Velveta is one) a ton of cream and it is to die for, which I would do if I ate if very frequently.

Five Guys Park Slope, Opening Day
I just hit Five Guys for the first time, at their Parsippany, NJ location. It rocks. Juicy, juicy burger and very flavorful fries. I'm hooked. Now I gotta hit In n Out when I go to Vegas next year to compare.

Oh oh oh oh!!! I'm doing the Happy Apple Dance! I've been skulking through the local Farmer's Market for weeks waiting to see Honey Crisps - no luck yet here in Ottawa - but the knowledge that they are making appearances elsewhere gives me hope.
I can't wait to get my Apple-crack addiction back up and running. :D Until then, Fujis are my methodone ...

I have never had a Honeycrisp before, guess I'll have to seek one out. I personally enjoy Gala, McIntosh or even...Red Delicious. Yes, I said it.

Can I be honest? My favorite apple is McIntosh. I've tasted honeycrisps and they're spectacular - and I like fuji, braeburn, etc. But McIntosh apples just taste like fall to me.

I love honeycrisps. I also like the tart little pippins and russets. They taste apple-y the way concords taste grape-y.

The best Chinese I've ever had was at this place called Three Happiness right off the Red Line Chinatown stop. It's been several years, but the meal was truly memorable. A stroll through Chinatown is also fun...seeing all the bakeries, the shops, the architecture.

I am not disappointed with the outcome even though I thought Lisa Garza was terrific. I liked Aaron very much from the very beginning. That said, I do think they might have been looking for something different or ethnic. I acutally thought they started out favoring Nipa (I think that is her name) because her Indian food was good and very different from anything else currently on the FN. But, she just was not the right personality for the task and she was not openminded about some of the foods (remember the fish?). She should have been dumped one session before she finally did get the ax. Arron will be fine and he will be appealing and likable. Aside from Nipa, I think any one of the contestants could be coached to be successful.

Lisa Garza is a culinary snob who is way too up tight for her own good. I wouldn't watch her on TV. Aaron was my favorite. I found his food genuine, and the kind of thing I'd really cook. To top it off, he's a big personality and really likable. I hope Adam finds a place for his "Always hungry in Philadelphia" concept. I think it is a good idea, and Adam seems like he can pull it off better than Aida of Ask Aida.

I was happy that Aaron won! For me, it was between he & Adam - I could have watched either one. Lisa annoyed the heck out of me and seemed more concerned at the way she was looking on TV rather than what she was doing. I'm sure her cooking is good, but she just didn't have that humble persona that Adam & Aaron gave out. Hats off to you, Aaron! I'll definitely be tuning in for your show!!

Shame Shame all you spoil sports. I had my hopes for Aaron right from the start; I knew as soon as he eased up he'd make it. (Trust me, I have a white face, never mind all this racist nonsense). I know Lisa is good but she has to get over trying to impress with her "haricot verts". Thanks for the French lesson, we now know it's just ordinary string beans. I wish you well. Get a new look - stop squinting, your eyes are beautiful; we want to see them. Be real. Aaron, good luck and as we say in French (Bon chance). See I know some French, that's 50 years of life with a Frenchman. surrah@optonline.net
