Did anyone else notice that Iron Chef (the original dubbed Japanese version) is being played on Fine Living Network, but that they have changed the iconic Iron Chef song? How can they do this to my beloved show? Is it really Iron Chef without it's special music? Am I nuts?
Yesterday I found at the local Key Foods a package of fresh parsley roots. They were big bulbous things, not the kind of roots I would expect a spindly plant like parsley to have. What do you use these for...is it a Passover thing, or do you use them for some recipe? I am puzzled!
Just moved to LA from NYC and am looking for something akin to my absolute fav Grand Sichuan...is there any super Chinese food here or is it all egg foo yung? HELP!!
Boy they sure showed McDonalds...right before they keeled over from a heart attack!
le sigh...what a fox. He can fix me burgers any day of the week.
Frasca in Boulder is one of the most famous restaurants around and is totally recommended for a special night...perfect for a honeymoon. Other than that in Denver she might like having margaritas and mexican at the Rio Grande in LODO (that's downtown Denver), it's a great starting off point for a night on the town but watch out, the margs will get you!!!
For Colorado style pizza (and there is such a thing) she should go to Beau Jo's which is right there on I-70 on her way to Denver from the mountains in an old historical mining town called Idaho Springs. For her information, Coloradoans usually save their crusts and put honey on them to eat for dessert.
If she is into beer, there are tons of breweries with brew pubs around...Breckenridge Brewery, Dillon Dam Brewery, Tommyknocker Brewery and tons (seriously, hundreds) more. Most of these have pretty good food and the beer cannot be beat!
I lived in Colorado for 25 years and am very jealous of your friend. Hope she has a wonderful trip!
I tried and didn't make it through 5 minutes before starting to fast forward on the DVR. 5 minutes later I was erasing it...it was so bad.
My diet is done.
For one day I shall be free.
To eat meat. And smile.
I don't know if beer counts, but I sure like Sixpoint beers...they are kind of a meal in a glass right?
I bake a macaroni and cheese from Martha Stewart's recipe. I figure if someone isn't impressed by 6 tablespoons of butter and 5 cups of cheese then they aren't worth impressing to begin with!
I miss the fried cherry pies from McDonalds. What did I ever do to deserve them taking those away?
a tie between mochi and mochi
Dark chocolate
String cheese
Cold fried chicken
Refried beans
Macaroni and cheese or spaghetti (tied for the last spot)
@ReneeRobinson: Yes. Some people seem to plan trips around eating at McD. I was watching Travel Channel and saw some show about like 10 unique McDs or something. It was hosted by some guy whose eaten at thousands of McDs. He's on a quest to eat at every single one or something like that.
Sure, it's by no means a significant number of people...
Meh. Some people have too much time on their hands.
@chiffonade - Yup, chiff, 'tis true; Sandy was a judge. Methinks she finagled a spot on the panel to give herself credibility.
Can't believe Jennifer got the boot. I thought it would be Aaron. I was a tad annoyed by the little stunt he pulled, telling the judges that his son ran away before the comp started - lame and majorly manipulative. Brotha lost points with me at least. Nipa needed to go, how can you be a chef or cook and not want to handle fish?
He had me at french fries. Or whatever he was talking about...
@bitchincamero: I saw that clip and he was great. What's NOT to like about him? He's fantastic all the way around. A talented, detail oriented perfectionist who performs swimmingly under the gun. And a trip to his restaurant is a treat you will not soon forget.
