Cheeseburger from Monk's Cafe in Philadelphia
Wow... I love the bun at monks, I enjoy the fact that it holds together and has a good texture to sink your teeth into.
On a side note - I just had a burger at Prohibition tap room (13th near spring garden) that almost, ALMOST rivaled my last Monk's burger.

There is a Vietnamese bodega down the street from me which makes Tofu hoagies, with pickled carrot/daikon, sriracha, jalapenos, and cilantro. Delicious. and cheap as well.

John must not get actual hangovers. This wouldn't do a thing for me...

It would have been nice to have a review of how any of this tasted...

Cheese-Filled Bacon Roll, Too Much of a Good Thing?
Made this a few weeks ago, but with turkey bacon. Deeelicious, but it cooled off a bit too quickly, at which point it was congealed cheese and cold bacon. Still delicious, so it was all eaten.
In Videos: How to Make a Herring Martini
Grey Goose? The phrase "Vodka Martini" makes as much sense as 'honest politician', military intelligence or, amicable divorce...
The Ultimate Cleanse?
I tried the master cleanse about 3 years back, but only for 4 days (due to some life circumstances) Those 4 days were actually quite helpful, and kickstarted my weightloss and physical activity.
I was fairly sedentary (though I walked to and from work every day, about 1 mile each way) and had some poor eating habits.
After the cleanse, I had more energy, and began going to the gym, and eventually went from (6'2") 230 pounds, to 198... I've slacked off on the gym slightly since then, but maintained most of the eating habits, and currently I'm 210... It's probably not for everyone, but I did find that it helped, even for such a short duration. The energy increase was the biggest benefit I found.
America's Most Expensive Hamburgers
Wow. $5000 bucks for a hamburger. Not to be the "there are starving kids in X", person, but someone who pays $5000 for a hamburger really needs to have something horrid happen to them.
Serious Easter Artisanal Chocolate Egg Giveaway
Ham with Chrzan (beet horseradish), and pierogi!
Essentials: Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Delicious. I generally mix up a batch of olive oil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt and some red pepper flakes. Then I cut my sprouts in half, and soak them in this dressing. Put them on a pan, roast till they start to caramelize, and then quickly toss in the dressing before serving...
My friends who claim to HATE brussel sprouts with a passion, love these.
Valentine's Day Chocolate Giveaway
Definitely Dark. With some nice dry red wine.
Cooking with Blood
In Tuscany there's a salami called Biroldo made in the Garfagnana area, blood is used but also bits of meat taken from the pig's head, read on and I'm sure you'll change your mind on blood related food items:

Cooking with Blood
I had blood pudding in Sweden once and liked it.

Next time try a awesome burger & fries at Grey Lodge Pub on Frankfort ave.
It is a tasty burger. MMMMMMM
Cheeseburger from Monk's Cafe in Philadelphia
I've never had a good experience at Monk's at all. The food is mediocre and the service is heinous. Grace Tavern, Good Dog and Pub and Kitchen have the best burgers around.

Over-breaded sandwiches, burgers, etc are always such a dirty shame.

I love making veggie chili. Just as comforting as the meaty one my mom used to make.
Cook the Book: 'Almost Meatless'
I started a diet at the beginning of the year, and in the recipe book, there was a fabulous veggie chili. I make that every week and, seriously, I eat it at least three times for lunch in a week. So good!

An organic, cage-free egg cooked sunny-side-up has been my recent go-to dish for any meal. I like to top the egg with grated quality Parm, lots of cracked pepper and serve with crunchy toast and a little salad with a tangy vinaigrette.
