Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Praise the Lard Gift Box

I grew up with my Chinese ma cooking the best pork belly. I didn't realize it was the best until I moved away from home 17 years ago and always request it when I go back to visit. The best port experience happend to me when Momofuku's started serving those pork buns and the pork just tasted like Ma's!

Houston's Doesn't Suck: What's Your Favorite Slightly Fancy Chain Restaurant?

I, like other poster's don't eat at chains while in New York, but do so when out of town. Fav's include Legal Seafoods and Cheesecake Factory ... and I do like a lot of the steak chain's althought you have "banned" them from the competition - they are normally very reliable. Can I comment on the one's I DON'T like ... Applebees, Red Lobster, Olive Garden and Outback Steak - although, again, this is a steak chain.

Illustrated Guide for Espresso Noobs

Thanks for including the picture of the flat white ... but why don't American cafe's serve them? I don't like foam! Flat whites are very popular down under where I hail from. The only place I've found so far that serves them in NYC is the Australian Cafe Ruby's.
