Taste Test: Mustard

Edmond Fallot Dijon is the best and I'm not just saying that because it's Thomas Keller's favorite. Grey P. tastes vile when tested beside Edmond Fallot.

Banning fast food near schools? Your take.

Give me a break...banning "fast food?." What if the food was cooked by Grant Achetz, took 2 days to make but had 40 grams of sat fat in it? How much fat in an order of beef short ribs with pureed potatoes like Joel Robuchon would make (1/3 butter, 1/3 cream, 1/3 potatoes)? What about an In and Out Burger "Animal Style"? The food we all love is fatty, salty and bad for you. Live with it.

Alice Waters' Open Letter to the Obamas

Alice Waters, once known for rightly pushing farm to table restaurants, is now projecting her utopion views of what she thinks america should be like on B. Obama. This is just like everyone else is doing. I am obsessed with food and cooking, but am not so niave to think it is of the importance she makes it out to be. She is definately a narcossist, as well. She may be a little nuts...

Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Praise the Lard Gift Box

I love Zingerman's and if you ever get to Ann Arbor make sure you get to their restaurant "The Roadhouse", it's really amazing. Niche restaurant in St. Louis takes pork to another level. I recently had "pigs head" which was various meats from the pigs head, succulent and moist, full of the porkiest flavor you've ever had, kind of like the little fatty pieces of carmalized pork between the bones of a crown rack of pork, but better. This meat was served with carmalized peaches and foie gras. It's worth a special trip.

Do Restaurants Get A Political Voice?

The people working in the muffin place must make less than 250,000 or make way more and feel guilty about it, so they advocate for someone who will give other peoples money away. There is a spot on your income tax to pay more if you wish. If you feel the need to pay more for worthless programs, be my guest...just don't take my money and do it. Socialism doesn't work...history has proven that...and even if it did , it isn't fair.

Pity the Food Snob

Let's give up the pricey food and give the money that we would've spent on it to the people who can't perform. Wow, what a concept. It's called socialism and every society who has tried it has failed. It's the classic liberal feels guilty mentality.

Eating in Vegas

These are my favorite restaurants in Vegas in ranked order.
I haven't been to Joel Robuchon or Guy Savoy although I hear they are the two best in vegas now. I haven't been to Bradley Ogden either, but I know its good, as well.

1. Alex at Wynn (short ribs to die for, service is steller)
2. Picasso at Bellagio (amazing food and service)
3. Daniel Boloud at Wynn (I could eat here every night if I lived in Vegas, more laid back than the Alex or Picasso)
4. Spago at Forum shops
5. Bouchon at the Venetian
6. Postrio at the Venetian
7. Tableu at Wynn
8. Delmonico at Venetian (Emirl's I know, but solid food)
9. Fleur de lys (I didn't care for it for several reasons)
